Enhance your health and maximise your body’s performance capabilities with the latest Infrared Light Therapy technology from Joovv – now available at RLabs. Our clinic is conveniently located in the heart of south-western Sydney in Gregory Hills, and we are proud to be able to provide you with cutting-edge light therapy technology that we know is going to make you feel amazing, both physically and mentally.

Red light therapy works by boosting your body’s energy production at a cellular level. The wavelengths of natural light emitted from our devices charge your cells by stimulating the ‘mitochondria’ (also known as the ‘powerhouse of the cell’). This energy boost helps your cells to produce more ATP (adenosine triphosphate) energy during the cellular respiration process, which fuels everything our bodies do. It’s a simple equation really – the more ATP a person produces, the better they move, look, feel, heal and perform.

Emerging research shows the massive clinical potential for red light therapy, with peer-reviewed studies demonstrating the treatment’s potential to address a huge range of health conditions and improvements. Some of these include:

  • Muscle recovery
  • Joint pain
  • Sleep optimisation
  • Sexual libido
  • Inflammation
  • Sleep optimisation
  • Cognitive function
  • Mental health

Unlock your body’s potential with next-level science at RLabs with our range of Joovv Red Light Therapy treatments. Whether you’re looking for a quick on-the-go session for an energy boost, or you want to be bathed in red light for a full rejuvenation, our friendly staff are here to help you live better.

Why R/Labs for Joovv Infrared Light Therapy Treatments?

RLabs was founded on the belief that everyone should have access to the sport industry’s most advanced technology and health treatments. We operate with innovation at our core and pride ourselves on providing ‘high-tech relaxation’.

Our friendly and expertly-trained staff, clean facilities and seamless customer experience mean that no matter whether you’re coming in for a relaxing massage, an energising cryotherapy session or a rejuvenating red light session – RLabs is a place where for the human body, anything is possible.

01 / Inflammation and pain relief

Red light therapy has been proved as a natural pain reliever that also reduces inflammation in the body. Joovv light therapy products are registered as class II devices for treating pains, strains and inflammation.

02 / Performance and muscle recovery

Clinical studies have consistently shown that red light therapy improves muscle growth, speed, endurance and strength. It’s a popular training tool in sports like the NFL, UFC and professional soccer.

03 / Sleep optimisation

While blue light from phones and computers keeps us awake, red light does the opposite and regulates our circadian rhythms and sleep quality. It also helps the body to produce more melatonin.

04 / Skin rejuvenation

Red light therapy does wonders for skin, as its soothing red light has an anti-inflammatory effect. It increases blood flow and circulation to tissue, promoting a healthy glow, slower ageing and reduced blemishes.

05 / Anti-ageing and skin health

Infrared saunas can help your skin retain a youthful, fresh appearance that’s free from blemishes. Infrared heat has been clinically proven to reach deep into your skin, removing the toxins that clog pores and speed up the ageing process.

06 / Hormone regulation

Red light therapy benefits the brain by increasing cerebral blood flow, oxygen availability and consumption, and boosting ATP energy production through enhanced mitochondrial activity. This can improve reaction time, attention, executive function and memory.

Rlabs brings the sports recovery technology of tomorrow into today – and makes it available for everyone.

Have some questions?

What is red light therapy?

Red light therapy refers to body treatments from LEDs or cold lasers that deliver wavelengths of natural red or near-infrared light. Different from an infrared sauna, red light therapy does not rely on heat, and instead relies on natural light that delivers the same therapeutic red and near-infrared wavelengths as natural sunlight. Red light therapy is different from solariums and bright light therapies like lamps or light boxes, as it mimics a natural form of light, rather than artificial wavelengths.

Red light therapy can also be known as RLT, photobiomodulation (PBM), phototherapy, LED therapy, LED light therapy, infrared therapy, low-level laser therapy or low level light therapy (LLLT).

 

What is Joovv and how does it work?

Joovv is a cutting-edge and highly trusted manufacturer of red light therapy devices. At RLabs, we have both a Joovv Quad and a Joovv Mini – different sizes for different needs and uses. Joovv is the most powerful light therapy currently available on the market (as proven by independent diagnostic testing from ITL laboratories), with the devices delivering the most total energy to your cells, resulting in shorter treatment times.

Joovv devices work by emitting natural red light onto your body and allowing it to penetrate the area you’re treating. You’ll be in a comfortable room, sitting approximately 15 centimetres away from the device. We recommend removing clothing from the area you’re treating, so the red light can penetrate the maximum amount of cells.

Frequently asked questions

At RLabs, we’re committed to ensuring you always receive the highest standards of safety and care at our clinic. Our friendly staff are on-hand to answer any questions you may have before, during or after your treatment with us.

01 / How much does red light therapy cost??

At RLabs, red light therapy is available at the extremely reasonable cost of $30 for 15 minute sessions.

02 / How long does a red light therapy treatment take?

Red light therapy treatments at RLabs take 15 minutes per treatment area. You can book 15 minute blocks, for example 15 minutes on your back, 15 minutes on your legs and 15 minutes on your face, equalling a 45 minute session.

03 / How often should I have red light therapy?

This will depend on what you’d like to gain from your red light therapy sessions. For acute pain, you can usually feel a reduction after one session with us (for example, if your knees, elbows or another body part were sore, you’d feel a reduction in pain after one 15 minute session). For chronic pain, we recommend having 15 minute sessions five times per week over the course of a few months.

04 / What does red light therapy feel like? Is it hot??

No, red light therapy does not hurt and the area won’t get hot to the point where you feel any kind of burning sensation. The area the red light is shining over will heat up a little bit, but it’s more akin to a warm glow from the sun on a summer day!

05 / Is red light therapy safe?

Red light therapy has decades of studies and testing behind it. From the labs of NASA to the leading medical institutions in the world, red light therapy has been analysed from every angle. In 2013, several of the world’s leading dermatologists and clinical researchers from Harvard Medical School, MIT, and a leading Indian research institute published a peer-reviewed meta analysis noting red light therapy’s “noninvasive nature and almost complete absence of side effects.”

The red and near-infrared wavelengths of Joovv red light therapy are clinically-proven to be effective and safe. However, if you have a specific health condition, then we recommend speaking to your healthcare professional before booking a treatment with us.
