Red Light Therapy Beds

Red + near-infrared (NIR) light · supports natural ATP energy

Something completely different: our two dedicated red light therapy beds use red and near-infrared light. A relaxing, rejuvenating session many clients build into their skincare, recovery and wellbeing routines.

  • Red and near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths
  • Near-Infrared reaches deeper than red light — into muscles and surrounding tissue — which is why it's a favourite for post-exercise recovery routines
  • 360° all-round therapy — full-body coverage
  • Rejuvenate from the outside in — feel and look amazing
  • Private, lockable room — your time, your space
  • Popular in skincare and recovery routines

Frequently asked questions

How often can I use a sunbed?

No more than once in any 24 hours. Most clients start with 2–3 sessions a week to build a tan, then 1–2 to maintain it. Our team will help you find the right pattern for your skin type.

How long will my tan last?

Typically 1–2 weeks with good aftercare — moisturise daily and exfoliate gently.

What should I wear?

Whatever you're comfortable in — swimwear, underwear, or nothing at all. Every room is private and lockable. Protective eyewear is provided for all sessions.

Do I need to book?

Walk-ins are always welcome; booking ahead guarantees your slot at busy times.

How do you approach safe tanning?

All our sunbeds use 0.3 EU-compliant tubes, our team advises session lengths based on your skin type, protective eyewear is provided, and sunbeds are strictly 18+ — please bring photo ID on your first visit.

What's the difference between sunbeds and red light therapy?

Sunbeds use UV light to give you a tan. Red light therapy uses no UV at all — it won't tan you. It's a relaxing wellness treatment using red and near-infrared light, and you can enjoy it whether or not you ever use a sunbed. Sunbeds are strictly 18+; red light therapy is available from age 13 with adult consent.
