Your Rouge Ultimate G4 — a full-body LED panel that treats your whole body at once. Stand in front of it and everything in the beam gets treated. Here's exactly how to use it.
A full-height LED panel that treats your entire body at once. It runs eight wavelengths simultaneously — four red (630, 650, 660, 670 nm) and four near-infrared (810, 830, 850, 1060 nm). Red works at the skin surface. Near-infrared is invisible to your eye and reaches deeper, into muscle, joint, and connective tissue. You don't select anything — stand in front of it and everything in the beam gets treated.
Face the panel for the front of your body, then turn around for the back. Two halves, one session. Bare skin — light doesn't pass through clothing. Keep your whole body inside the panel's face; step back if you're taller than the light.
More is not better. Red light has a dose sweet spot. Under-dose and nothing happens; over-dose and you cancel the benefit out. Standing closer and staying longer is not an upgrade. Stay inside the times below.
This is a wellness amenity, not medical treatment, and nothing here is medical advice. If you have an injury or a medical condition, talk to your doctor.
Consistency beats intensity. One session feels nice. The real effect shows up with repetition — three times a week minimum, daily if you can.
For: the morning after a long hike, a hard workout, a race, or a travel day that beat you up.
Stand 12 inches from the panel. 6–8 minutes facing in, 6–8 minutes facing out. The whole body is treated in the same pass — no need to isolate anything.
If one area is genuinely wrecked — a knee, a shoulder, one quad — finish with 2–3 minutes at 6 inches aimed at that spot. Keep it short; don't add this on top of a full session more than once. Best done within a few hours of the effort, and again the next morning if you're still stiff.
For: the morning of a long trail, a ride, or a climb.
5 minutes at 12 inches, front. 5 minutes, back. Do it 30–60 minutes before you head out.
If you prime in the morning, keep the evening recovery session short — 5 minutes per side rather than the full 8. Don't stack a full priming session and a full recovery session on the same day.
For: arriving from another time zone, or just sleeping badly somewhere new.
60–90 minutes before bed. Sit or stand 24–36 inches back — farther than the other regimens. 10–15 minutes, front of the body, eyes closed. Kill the room lights and put the phone away — the panel should be the only light you're seeing.
Flew east (need to sleep earlier): do the wind-down your first two nights, then get into real morning sunlight the next day. Flew west (need to stay up later): skip the evening session; use the panel in the late afternoon instead — 10 minutes at 24 inches. Don't use it in the 30 minutes before you lie down — some people find it alerting.
For: general recovery, skin, circulation, and the "I just want to try it" session.
Stand 12–24 inches back. 5–10 minutes facing in, 5–10 minutes facing out. Eyes closed or goggles on.
If you're not sure which regimen you want, do this one. It's also the right setting for skin — surface tissue needs a much lower dose than deep tissue, so back up and keep it short.
