Quick Answer: The TheraLight 360 is a clinic-grade, lie-down red light bed with four independently controlled wavelengths (633, 810, 850 and 940nm), pulsing up to 5,000 Hz and a 7 ft 1 in bed, and TheraLight’s own trade-in page lists it at $74,995 retail (the 360+ at $89,995). It is FDA registered under a 510(k)-exempt product code, not FDA cleared, and the maker sells only through its sales team and two distributors. For almost everyone the realistic way to use one is per session at a clinic, where single sessions run $35 to $40 at the clinics we checked. This is a research-based review of the hardware, prices and paperwork, not medical advice.
TheraLight is the bed you are most likely to meet at a med spa, chiropractor, recovery studio or hotel: the company says more than 1,000 of its systems are in use. Because it is sold business-to-business, independent information is scarce. This review goes to the primary sources instead: TheraLight’s product, warranty, extended care and trade-in pages (theralight.com now redirects to its parent company, Aspen Live Well), the two authorized distributors’ stores, FDA’s registration and 510(k) databases, published clinic price lists and the whole-body photobiomodulation research. We compared what those documents say with each other. We have not used or measured a TheraLight bed ourselves.
TheraLight 360 by the numbers
- $74,995 retail: the price TheraLight’s trade-in page gives for the next-generation TheraLight 360, with the 360+ at $89,995. Owners of an older 360 can get a $30,000 trade-in credit after a $1,250 on-site assessment.
- 99 J/cm² in 10 minutes: TheraLight’s stated total dose for the 360 and 360i, which works out to an average of 165 mW/cm². The smaller FIT is rated at 60 J/cm² in 10 minutes, or 100 mW/cm² on average.
- About 7x the dose of a research bed: the NovoTHOR bed used in a 2022 West Virginia University study of NCAA soccer players delivered 14.4 J/cm² in 20 minutes at 12 mW/cm², per the paper in Sports.
- 0 510(k) clearances for the bed: FDA lists the 360, 360i, 360+ and FIT under product code ILY with no 510(k) number; ILY lamps have been 510(k)-exempt since December 30, 2019.
- 25% restocking fee: returns are “not authorized” by default, are judged case by case, cost 25% plus bed removal and freight, and are refused after 90 days, per TheraLight’s warranty page. On a $74,995 bed that is $18,748.75 before freight.
- 5 studies, 105 participants: the full evidence base for whole-body red light and exercise in a 2025 systematic review in Lasers in Medical Science. Two studies found better sleep quality; none found a performance or fatigue benefit.

Specs for the 360, 360i and FIT come from TheraLight’s product pages on aspenlivewell.com; Multi-Zone specs and all dealer prices come from the Da Vinci Medical USA and 10X Health stores. Average irradiance is our arithmetic from the maker’s stated 10-minute dose (dose divided by 600 seconds), not a measurement.
1. TheraLight 360: The Flagship Most Clinics Run
TheraLight 360
- Four wavelengths (633, 810, 850 and 940nm), each switchable on its own, plus continuous wave or pulsing from 1 to 5,000 Hz.
- 10-inch wireless tablet that can run sessions from the front desk over Bluetooth, store protocols and control each wavelength.
- Needs a 240 V, 30 A circuit; 620 lb with wheels; adjustable end caps, air cooling, built-in Bluetooth speakers.
- Rated dose 99 J/cm² in 10 minutes; recommended session 10 to 20 minutes; LEDs rated for 130,000 hours.
The 360 is the model TheraLight calls “the foundation of our light therapy lineup”, and it is the bed most clinics advertise by name. What sets it apart on paper is control: most beds and panels fire their wavelengths together, while the 360 lets an operator run 633nm red alone, near-infrared alone, or any mix, with pulsing. TheraLight also delivers, installs and trains staff on site, and says it keeps beds in stock to ship within 24 hours of payment.
Two details on its own spec sheet deserve a second look. The weight capacity reads “500 LBS (158kg)”, but 500 lb is 227 kg and 158 kg is 348 lb, and the FIT page repeats the same 158 kg next to 300 lb. And the 99 J/cm² dose implies an average of 165 mW/cm², which is higher than the 120 mW/cm² that Da Vinci quotes as the maximum for the newer, more expensive Multi-Zone bed. TheraLight’s “validated testing” page says the company “has chosen not to publicly disclose all testing reports”, so neither figure can be checked against a published measurement.
2. TheraLight 360i: The 360 With PEMF and Better Speakers
TheraLight 360i
- Same published spec table as the 360: 633/810/850/940nm, 1 to 5,000 Hz, 99 J/cm² in 10 minutes, 5-year warranty.
- Adds an integrated PEMF (pulsed electromagnetic field) module, premium cooling and JBL speakers, per TheraLight.
- PEMF presets at 10, 20, 30 and 60 Hz, programmable from 1 to 100 Hz, per TheraLight's FAQ.
- TheraLight lists pacemakers and other implanted active devices, pregnancy and active bleeding as reasons to avoid the PEMF function.
TheraLight launched the 360i in 2025 as its “most comprehensive” bed. Its light hardware is, on paper, identical to the 360: the 360i page reuses the 360’s spec table line for line, including the line “PEMF Integration Option”. The difference is the add-ons. TheraLight’s own FAQ describes the PEMF module (model TL-PEMF-2025) as a wellness component that “does not diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease” and makes “no stand-alone medical claims”. If you have an implanted pacemaker or defibrillator, or are pregnant, tell the clinic before a 360i session so the PEMF function stays off.
3. TheraLight FIT: The 110 V Bed Sold for Homes
TheraLight FIT
- Runs on 110 V (20 A max) since a 2025 redesign, with a flat acrylic base that is easier to get on and off than a curved one.
- Same four wavelengths and 0 to 5,000 Hz pulsing; rated 60 J/cm² in 10 minutes.
- 6 ft 5 in bed, 400 lb unit weight, 300 lb user limit; 10X says it fits users up to 6 ft 6 in.
- 3-year system warranty (versus 5 on the 360) plus lifetime LED coverage; LEDs rated 100,000 hours.
The FIT is TheraLight’s answer to buyers who don’t have a 240 V circuit or a treatment room. It is the only TheraLight that the maker markets for home use, and both distributors list it with a public price: Da Vinci Medical at $58,500 (down from a $64,997 list price) and 10X Health at $59,997 plus a separate $6,495 shipping listing, or $66,492 in total. 10X’s listing quotes 4,392 square inches of LED surface and up to 110 mW/cm², while Da Vinci says up to 100 mW/cm². The FIT’s lower stated dose (60 versus 99 J/cm² in 10 minutes) means a FIT session needs to run longer to match a 360 session.
4. TheraLight Multi-Zone: The New Top Model at the Distributor
TheraLight Multi-Zone (MZ and MZ EXP)
- 88,500 diodes in five independently controlled zones, each with its own wavelength mix, intensity and pulse rate.
- Up to 120 mW/cm² and up to 4,200 W, per Da Vinci; a single zone can get up to a 400% irradiance boost from one wavelength.
- MZ EXP adds four PEMF programs (up to 40 gauss) and six vibroacoustic transducers.
- Described as designed and assembled in the USA, limited to 20 beds a month, with an engraved owner plate.
The Multi-Zone appears on Da Vinci Medical’s store (first published there in July 2026) but not yet on Aspen Live Well’s own TheraLight pages. Da Vinci notes that the first 10 beds ship with the original controller screen rather than the five-zone screen shown in its photos. Its marketing leans on a metric it calls “irradiance per watt” (4,200 W divided by 120 mW/cm² gives 35), which is not an industry standard and can’t be compared with other brands that don’t publish both numbers.
TheraLight vs other full-body options
| Option | Price | Who sells it | Stated output | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TheraLight 360 | $74,995 retail | TheraLight sales team, Da Vinci Medical, 10X Health | 99 J/cm² in 10 min | Clinics selling sessions |
| TheraLight FIT | $58,500 to $59,997 + shipping | Da Vinci Medical, 10X Health | 60 J/cm² in 10 min | Clinics without 240 V, wealthy home buyers |
| NovoTHOR | Quote only | THOR Photomedicine | 12 mW/cm² in the WVU study setup | Clinics, sports teams |
| Joovv Elite 3.0 | $11,099 sale ($12,199 list), Oct 31, 2026 | Joovv | Six-panel standing system | Home full-body, standing |
| NOVAA Recovery Pod | $2,500 | NovaaLab | 130 mW/cm² (maker) | Home, lie-in wrap |
| Mito Red Light MitoPOD | $1,699 | Mito Red Light | 30 mW/cm² at the surface (maker) | Home, portable wrap |
| Hooga Full Body Pod XL | $1,399 | Hooga | 70 mW/cm² at the surface (maker) | Home, budget wrap |
| Mito Red Light MitoPRO+ 1500+ | $1,169, Oct 31, 2026 | Mito Red Light | Large standing panel | Home, standing |
Pod prices were checked on each brand’s own store on November 6, 2026. Output figures are each maker’s own and are measured in different ways, so compare them as rough guides only.
If you want the lie-down format at home, our red light therapy pod comparison covers the wrap-style pods, and our red light therapy bed guide compares home panel systems with the clinic beds. For a standing setup, see the full-body red light therapy panel guide.
What “FDA registered” means for the TheraLight 360
TheraLight’s product pages list “FDA Registered” alongside Health Canada approval, ISO 13485 compliance, IEC safety certification and RoHS compliance. FDA’s databases show what the registration covers:
- TheraLight, LLC (Lindon, Utah) is registered with FDA and lists the TheraLight 360, 360i, 360+ and FIT under product code ILY, “lamp, infrared, therapeutic heating” (21 CFR 890.5500), with no 510(k) number. Its establishment type is “complaint file establishment”, and it is flagged as the initial importer.
- Rhein Laser Technologies Co., Ltd. (Wuhan, China) is registered as a device manufacturer with an ILY listing named “TheraLight 360 Full Body Wellness”, which covers the TheraLight 360+, 10X, FIT, 360 and THIN. Rhein Laser holds 510(k) clearances for its own surgical lasers, but none for a light bed.
- The four 510(k)s from the older Theralight, Inc. of Carlsbad, California (K022165, K024020, K051259 and K061295, cleared 2002 to 2006) are for the UV120-2 UVA/UVB phototherapy system and the VersaClear skin therapy system. Aspen Live Well’s company timeline says TheraLight, LLC acquired Theralight, Inc. and its clearances in 2019, but none of them covers the red light bed.
- ILY lamps have been 510(k)-exempt since a final rule published December 30, 2019 (84 FR 71818). Registration and listing are required; clearance is not.
We found no adverse event reports and no recalls under the TheraLight brand in openFDA on November 6, 2026. The practical point: a clinic that advertises an “FDA-cleared” or “FDA-approved” TheraLight bed is overstating it. “FDA registered” is accurate.
TheraLight’s validated-testing page also says the company aimed to achieve ISO certification, UL listing and additional FDA clearances “by 2025”. Its product pages say “ISO 13485 Compliant” rather than certified, and we found no new clearance for the bed.
What a TheraLight 360 session costs
TheraLight doesn’t set session prices. The clinics we found that publish them:
| Provider | Single session | Packages | Memberships | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| pH Drip Lab, Sherman Oaks, CA | $40 (20 min) | 4 for $120; 8 for $180 ($22.50 each) | 12 sessions $199/month; 30 sessions $249/month, shareable | Up to 2 sessions a day at the doctor's discretion |
| Skin N' Tox, Meridian, ID | $35 | Packages offered | $295/month (3 months) or $245/month (6 months) | Prices from a February 2025 page; suggests 2 to 3 sessions a week |
| Santa Monica Proper Hotel, CA | Shown at booking | None listed | None listed | 10 to 20 minute sessions in the hotel's wellness space |
At $40 a session, three sessions a week cost $120, or $6,240 a year. That is more than five Mito Red Light MitoPRO+ 1500+ panels, so if you know you’ll use red light weekly, owning a panel is far cheaper. For a first try, or to see whether you tolerate a full-body session before buying anything, a single session is the low-risk option. Our red light therapy near me guide compares studio, gym and home costs in more detail.
For a clinic, the math runs the other way. At $40 a session, a $74,995 TheraLight 360 needs 1,875 paid sessions to cover the purchase price, or about three years at 12 sessions a week, before rent, power and staff. TheraLight’s Extended Care plans add $3,600 for one year, $6,800 for two or $9,600 for three after the original warranty.
Warranty, returns and the fine print
- Warranty: 5 years on the 360 and 360i, 3 years on the FIT, from the date of delivery, plus lifetime coverage of the LEDs on all three, for the original purchaser. Transfers need written approval and recertification.
- Returns: not authorized by default. TheraLight judges requests case by case, charges a 25% restocking fee plus bed removal and freight shipping, and accepts no returns after 90 days. Freight fees are non-refundable if you cancel while the bed is in transit.
- Extended Care: $3,600 (1 year), $6,800 (2 years) or $9,600 (3 years), or $350, $340 or $320 a month, with an on-site recertification and 72-hour on-site service.
- Trade-in: a $30,000 credit toward a new 360 ($74,995) or 360+ ($89,995) for a qualifying older 360, after a $1,250 assessment that is credited back if approved.
Does a full-body bed do more than a panel?
The evidence for whole-body red light is younger and thinner than for targeted devices, and none of it was produced on a TheraLight bed. A PubMed search for “TheraLight” returns a single paper, a 2012 study in the Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology that used the old Carlsbad company’s UV120-2 ultraviolet system for oral lichen planus.
- Exercise and recovery: a 2025 systematic review in Lasers in Medical Science (Álvarez-Martínez and Borden) found 5 whole-body studies with 105 physically active participants. Two reported better sleep quality; none reported a benefit for fatigue biomarkers or exercise performance.
- Sleep, with a twist: in the 2022 West Virginia University study of an NCAA women’s soccer team (Rentz and colleagues, Sports), overnight heart rate was lower after a 20-minute NovoTHOR session, but total sleep time averaged 40 minutes less that night. Our red light therapy for sleep guide covers the wider evidence.
- Fibromyalgia: small single-arm feasibility trials of whole-body beds (19 people completed 18 sessions in a 2023 UK trial) show the format is tolerable, not that it works. See our red light therapy for fibromyalgia guide.
- Dose: a higher number is not automatically better. Huang and colleagues described a biphasic dose response in low level light therapy (Dose-Response, 2009), in which too much light can reduce the effect. That makes the 360’s 99 J/cm² in 10 minutes, about seven times the 14.4 J/cm² dose used in the WVU study, a reason to follow the clinic’s session time rather than ask for extra minutes.
If you have a specific condition, our red light therapy for muscle recovery guide and condition guides cover targeted devices, which have more research behind them than beds do. Anyone who is pregnant, photosensitive, on photosensitizing medication or has an implanted device should ask their doctor first.
Who should book, buy or skip a TheraLight
Book a session if you’re curious about full-body red light therapy and want to try it before spending money on hardware. At $35 to $40 for a single session at the clinics above, it is the cheapest way to see how you feel after one.
Buy a TheraLight 360 or 360i only if you run a clinic, studio or gym that will sell sessions, have a 240 V, 30 A circuit and a room for a 620 lb bed, and are comfortable with a 25% restocking fee if it doesn’t work out. Ask for a written quote, the Extended Care terms, and the measured irradiance report behind the 99 J/cm² figure before you sign.
Consider the FIT if you need 110 V power or want a lie-down bed at home and a $58,500 to $66,492 delivered price fits your budget.
Skip TheraLight for home use in almost every other case. A standing full-body panel or a wrap-style pod uses the same red and near-infrared bands for $1,169 to $2,500, and our best red light therapy panel picks cover the home options.
The bottom line
The TheraLight 360 is a real, widely installed clinic bed with an unusual degree of wavelength control, a five-year warranty and lifetime LED coverage, and its maker does publish a price if you know where to look: $74,995 retail, $89,995 for the 360+, $58,500 and up for the FIT. It is FDA registered, not cleared, its stated dose has no public measurement behind it, and returns cost 25%. For most readers the right way to use one is a $35 to $40 session at a local clinic; for regular home use, a panel or pod costs a fraction.
