What operators need to know about wavelength selection, how red and NIR light differ, and why Dahlia systems use both.
Red light wavelengths fall in the 620–700nm range of the visible spectrum. This light is visible to the eye and is absorbed at the surface level. In general wellness applications, red light is commonly associated with skin appearance support and surface-level comfort routines.
Near-infrared wavelengths fall in the 700–1100nm range and are invisible to the eye. NIR light penetrates deeper than visible red light. In general wellness contexts, NIR is commonly associated with recovery support and deeper tissue comfort routines.
The Dahlia Pinnacle Bed and Summit Pads deliver both red and near-infrared wavelengths simultaneously. This dual-wavelength approach provides coverage across both surface and deeper tissue areas in a single session, which is why full-body systems are practical for general wellness applications.
From an operational perspective, dual-wavelength delivery means you can offer a single session type that addresses multiple general wellness goals. This simplifies your service menu, booking flow, and client communication — you don't need separate sessions for different wavelengths.
The 5 modalities on the Pinnacle Bed adjust the wavelength mix, intensity, and timing for different general wellness applications, giving operators flexibility without complexity.
