The Hooga HGPRO Series is a high-power light therapy device designed to deliver red and near-infrared light to the body for various health and well-being benefits. This device utilizes specific wavelengths of natural light, 660 nanometers (red light) and 850 nanometers (near-infrared light), which have been clinically proven to positively affect human biology without harmful UV rays, excess heat, or negative effects. The primary function of the HGPRO is to enhance cellular health and function through a process called photobiomodulation (PBM), which increases mitochondrial energy production within cells.
Function Description:
The HGPRO device works by stimulating mitochondria, often referred to as the "energy production plants" of cells, to create more ATP (cellular energy). The specific photons from the red and near-infrared light interact with a photoreceptor called cytochrome oxidase within cells, allowing mitochondria to use oxygen more efficiently. This increased energy production leads to improved cellular function, and consequently, optimal body function. The benefits of red and near-infrared light therapy, supported by over 3,000 scientific studies and peer-reviewed clinical trials, are wide-ranging. These include increased energy, enhanced fat loss, improved muscle recovery, decreased inflammation and joint pain, enhanced skin health and appearance, increased collagen production, improved mood and cognitive function, faster wound healing, improved hormonal health, and better sleep quality.

Usage Features:
The Hooga HGPRO is designed for simple and easy daily use, with sessions typically lasting up to ten minutes. The device can be used on any part of the body.
- Included Accessories: Each HGPRO Series Panel comes with a US Power Cord and a Hooga HGPRO Manual. The HGPRO300 model includes an Adjustable Stand. Other models (HGPRO750, HGPRO1500, HGPRO4500) include a Door Mount and a Hooga Hanging Kit, allowing for convenient setup over most doors.
- Setup: For models with the hanging kit, simply hang the kit and the panel to the door mount and plug the panel into any outlet. Users then stand in front of the panel, maintaining a distance of 6 to 18 inches, depending on their treatment goals.
- Operation: Users turn on the red and/or near-infrared power switches to begin treatment.
- Dosing: Dose is measured in Joules and depends on power density, distance, and treatment time.
- Formula: (Irradiance at a given distance) x (Treatment Time in Seconds) x (.001)
- Recommended for skin and topical treatments: 3J to 10J per treatment area.
- Recommended for deep tissue treatments: 10J to 50J per treatment area.
- Eye Protection: Not strictly required, but direct staring at LEDs is not recommended if uncomfortable. Eyes typically adjust to the light.
- Infrared LEDs: Near-infrared (NIR) light is not visible to the naked eye, but a slight glow may be observed in dark conditions, confirming operation.
- Children's Use: Children can use the HGPRO under adult supervision (never on infants). Children over 12 can follow adult treatment times; those under 12 should use half the recommended dose.
- Clothing: Users can wear clothing, provided the treatment area is completely exposed.
- Consistency: Daily use is recommended for maximizing results, with systemic benefits often appearing after 8-12 weeks of consistent use.
- Cautions:
- Do not use on infants, sleeping, disabled, or unconscious persons.
- Do not exceed 20 minutes per session.
- Do not use on open, fresh wounds.
- Avoid use with liniments, salves, ointments, or balms containing heat-producing ingredients to prevent skin burns.
- Consult a healthcare provider if sensitive to light, pregnant, have suspicious or cancerous lesions, or use certain medications (e.g., Tetracycline, Digoxin, Retin A, photosensitizing drugs, steroids).
- Stop use if discomfort occurs.
- Unplug when not in use to prevent tripping hazards.
