Red light therapy is considered to be safe. Similar to sunlight, photons of light give you energy and improve your wellbeing. Red light therapy has been used since 1967 and has become more widespread since the ‘90s with advances in LED technology.

There are thousands of clinical studies that support the safety and effectiveness of red light therapy, including by organisations like NASA. In 2018 the FDA even added certain classes of red light therapy devices as ‘exempt’ due to the inherent safety of the technology.

Step 1 – Turn Your FlexBeam On
Turn your FlexBeam on by pressing and holding the button ON.

Step 2 – Select the Programme
FlexBeam has three Programmes displayed on the middle button of the control module. Set the programme by selecting 1, 2, or 3.

To choose the best programme, ask yourself – how deep do you feel the issue in your body?

How deep inside your body do you feel the issue?
Recommended programme and cycle length on the skin level:
- Programme RED (1) 10 min/cycle (up to 2 cm deep (3/4 of an inch)
- Programme DUAL (2) 10 min/cycle (deeper inside the body)
- Programme INFRA (3) 10 min/cycle

Step 3 – Position Your FlexBeam
Remember – as long as you are following the necessary safety precautions, you can place FlexBeam wherever you want.

Step 4 – Start the Application
Initiate the application by pressing PLAY once. If you want to pause the session, press the PLAY button again.

Step 5 – Stop/Continue the Application
Each cycle lasts for 10 minutes. When a cycle is complete, FlexBeam automatically pauses for few minutes before it switches itself OFF.

Remove the device from the skin and if required, move it to the next part of the body to continue the session.
• If you use the same Program, just press PLAY to run another cycle.
• If you want to change the Program, then choose the desired Programme by selecting 1, 2, or 3 and then press PLAY.

Keep in Mind
While FlexBeam is safe to use, some precautions are necessary:
• do not put FlexBeam on your head or face
• avoid looking directly at the light
• wear protective goggles if using within 30 cm of the eye.
• do not place FlexBeam directly over the heart for longer than one cycle (10 minutes).

Disclaimer
FlexBeam is currently sold as a general wellness device only. The information on this website provides general guidance about FlexBeam and how to operate it. Global PFC makes no declaration about the safety or effectiveness of FlexBeam and does not claim to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. Using FlexBeam is not a substitute for a consultation with your healthcare provider. Information given should not be construed as medical advice.

Safe use of FlexBeam is the primary responsibility of the user. If FlexBeam appears to be operating incorrectly stop use immediately and contact Recharge customer support.

Use on the Head
FlexBeam is not designed for use on the eyes, face, or anywhere on or around the head. Do not place it on the head.

Effect on Eyes
Avoid staring directly at the LEDs or using within 30 cm from your eyes. FlexBeam emits powerful invisible infrared light. Use provided safety goggles in cases when escaped light is directly shining into the eyes.

Pregnancy
The safety of the use of FlexBeam has not been established during pregnancy or childbirth.

Endocrine Glands
Do not use over thyroid gland and testes. FlexBeam is not intended to treat endocrine conditions.

Cancers
Do not use over malignant and other tumors.

Tan and Deep Skin Tones
Although FlexBeam has been tested on a diverse range of skin tones without any reported adverse effects, since deeper skin tones readily absorb light, we recommend exercising caution by reducing exposure time to not more than 10 minutes in one place.

Tattooed Skin
FlexBeam delivers light stimulation via LEDs, not lasers and although it is very safe, the light is very intense. Exercise caution when placing over tattoos. We recommend reduced exposure time (5 minutes in one place) over the tattooed areas, but the best is to avoid placing FlexBeam over it, especially when the tattoo is recent or extensively covered with dark ink.

Burns
FlexBeam does not cause burns to the skin. This is because the therapeutic effect of FlexBeam is transmitted through light, not heat.  However,  in certain cases of extreme skin sensitivity redness or blistering may occur, in which case, FlexBeam use must be immediately suspended, and a physician should be consulted for further advice.
Please inform customer support should you experience this type of reaction.

Undiagnosed Skin Conditions
Exercise caution when using FlexBeam over undiagnosed skin conditions. If you are unsure consult your healthcare provider before using the device.

FlexBeam Usage
Do not use FlexBeam over the same location for an extended period of time.

FlexBeam Presets and Body Locations
As a rule, our guide is to use Programme 3 over the back and Programme 2 for the abdomen area.

FlexBeam is safe to use in most situations but there are some times when you need to be careful.

If you are light-sensitive take care and begin by shortening programme times.

Consult your healthcare practitioner prior to use if you:
• are pregnant
• are currently undergoing chemo/radiotherapy with active cancerous tumors
• have thrombo-embolism or bleeding  
• have any acute systemic infections
• have a heart condition

Never look directly into the lights during use, powerful invisible infrared light is being emitted. We’ve provided safety goggles to wear if you are using the device within 30cm of the eye.
