Portable Infrared Therapy Blanket

Klinogicare®® RedWave Cocoon Infrared Therapy Blanket

360° coverage with 4,300 diodes, a rated power of 2,000 W and wavelengths of 850 nm and 660 nm. Full-body coverage with red and near-infrared light. Supplied with a carry bag.

5 minutes with the portable Klinogicare® RedWave Cocoon infrared therapy blanket may, in certain protocols, provide thermal support comparable to around 20 minutes of passive muscle warm-up. It can be especially useful to help support muscle preparation before physical activity, particularly when athletes have little time available, for example just before taking the field, or in cold conditions such as winter. Infrared radiation may reach deeper tissue layers than conventional surface warming.

Therapeutic method

Overview of infrared therapy

The technology combines red and near-infrared light to provide a deep thermal effect, support for recovery and muscle warm-up before physical activity.

Red and near-infrared light therapy is a technique based on the use of specific wavelengths to help support tissue recovery and function. Infrared radiation is an invisible part of the light spectrum that penetrates body tissue, generates gentle heat and stimulates cellular processes at a deep level. Unlike conventional heat exposure, infrared radiation penetrates more deeply, may support cellular processes, can contribute to microcirculation and help promote tissue recovery processes.

Key benefits of red and near-infrared light therapy:

  • Support for cellular activity and recovery processes
  • Contribution to microcirculation
  • Support for reducing pain and the inflammatory response
  • Support for recovery after physical exertion and certain rehabilitation protocols
  • Muscle relaxation and improved overall well-being
  • Combined use of wavelengths with complementary effects

850 nm near-infrared

  • The 850 nm wavelength belongs to the near-infrared spectrum and can penetrate deeply into body tissue - up to about 1-1.6 in (25-40 mm) - reaching muscles, joints and deep structures.
  • Its main effect is the stimulation of the mitochondria, the energy centers of the cells, with an increase in ATP production, which is essential for tissue repair, metabolism and recovery.
  • Application: support for reducing joint pain and inflammation, and helping to improve tissue regeneration processes after traumatic events or functional overload.

660 nm red light

  • The 660 nm wavelength lies within the red light spectrum and penetrates up to about 0.2-0.4 in (5-10 mm) into the skin, acting on the upper tissue layers, the skin surface and superficial blood vessels.
  • Its main effect is improving microcirculation and stimulating collagen production, helping to support skin quality and the regeneration of superficial tissues.
  • Application: support for skin quality, the healing of superficial injuries and the reduction of inflammation at the skin level.
  • The 850 nm and 660 nm wavelengths are often used in combination, since they act on different tissue depths and, together, may contribute to a more complete therapeutic and regenerative effect.

Biological effects of red and near-infrared light therapy

  • Faster muscle recovery
  • Muscle warm-up before physical activity
  • Contribution to microcirculation
  • Support for reducing pain and the inflammatory response
  • Activation of cellular metabolism and increased ATP production
  • Greater flexibility and muscle relaxation
  • Support for recovery after sports injuries
  • Stimulation of collagen production
  • Support for physiological regeneration processes
  • Support for improving the appearance and texture of the skin

Mechanism of action

  1. Absorption of infrared light

    Infrared emission penetrates deeply into tissue and reaches muscles, joints and deep structures. It is absorbed by the cells, particularly the mitochondria, and helps stimulate increased ATP production, which is essential for recovery.

  2. Contribution to microcirculation

    Infrared heat helps promote the dilation of blood vessels and capillaries, thereby improving circulation in muscles and joints. The increased blood supply carries more oxygen and nutrients to the tissue and may support recovery processes.

  3. Reduction of inflammation and pain

    Red and near-infrared light therapy may help reduce the production of inflammatory mediators and tissue swelling, contribute to pain relief and support recovery.

  4. Muscle relaxation and easing of tension

    The heat generated by infrared radiation helps relax the muscles, ease tension and may contribute to reducing muscle tightness. This can support athletes' recovery after intense exertion and may help reduce the risk of muscle injuries.

  5. Preparation for physical exertion

    Infrared radiation reaches tissue layers that are difficult to warm with conventional methods. Thanks to infrared heat, blood vessels dilate, blood flow to the muscles increases and muscle fibers become more elastic. This improves joint mobility and muscle flexibility, and may help prepare the body for intense physical activity.
