Q. Does the PAIN-X-2000 have FDA clearance for Infrared Therapy?
A. Yes, It is cleared by the FDA for minor muscle and joint aches and pains and to increase circulation.

Q. How long do I need to treat an area?
A. Usually about 3 to 10 minutes for each area, depending on problem.

Q. How deep does the Infrared penetrate?
A. It will penetrate all the way to the bone. That is the reason we use a higher nm diode than our competition. The higher the nm the deeper the penetration.

Q. Is it harmful to the eyes?
A. No, since it is not a collimated beam it will not harm the eyes. However it is very bright so it is best to keep the eyes closed when using it in that area for sinus pain etc.

Q. How is LED light therapydifferent from laser treatment?
A. LED covers a larger area so it takes less time to treat, LED’s are much safer and once a laser beam enters the skin it is no longer a collimated beam of light so it is not different than an LED but yet costs much more.

Q. Can anyone Use the PAIN-X-2000?
A. Yes, since it is cleared by the FDA for over the counter use, anyone can purchase and use our units. Unlike the lasers which can only be used under the supervision of a doctor.

Q. Are there other uses for Infrared Therapy besides pain?
A. Yes, there are many new uses being discovered daily. In the USA the FDA will not let us advertise those uses for USA since it is only cleared at this time for pain and increased circulation. The other uses may be used outside of the USA.

Q. What does Polychromatic Infrared Diode Therapy and LLLT actually do to relieve pain and inflammation?
A. In simple terms a tiny amount of singlet oxygen is produced as a result of the absorption of the light within the cell This causes a formation of proton gradients across the cell membrane and across the membrane of the mitochondria. This changes the cell membrane permeability to various ions, it also causes changes in mitochondrial membrane permeability leading to increased cellular ATP levels. DNA production is then seen. There are then observed physiological changes such as increased endothelial cell proliferation, increased fibroblast proliferation, etc.

Q. How do I know I am buying a legally cleared product by the FDA.
A. Ask the seller to provide you with and FDA clearance number which you can then go to the FDA website and look it up. There are many many companies selling illegal Infrared products right now so beware.

Q. What is the warranty on the PAIN-X-2000 products?
A. We have a 4 year warranty.
