THOR's history and commitment in the field of Photobiomodulation is unmatched. They have contributed to 51 academic papers, collaborated with 6 Harvard Medical research groups and 30 other universities globally.
THOR partners with renowned hospitals and research facilities. THOR are the choice of the US Special Forces, top professional sports teams, and Olympic athletes for their ability to improve performance and recovery.
NovoTHOR® uses red and near-infrared light to treat your entire body. While drugs hide pain by interfering with chemical signals. NovoTHOR actually relieves the source of the pain, treating muscles and joints.
It's used by pioneering doctors, clinics, and sports teams around the world. The science has been around for a while, but the technology to deliver the treatment is new — it's got some amazing applications.
Applications
Pain relief
A great way to treat the source of pain, without resorting to drugs
Recovery
It actually treats at a cellular level, it doesn't just block chemical signals
Performance
Boosts workout effectiveness, improving muscle performance
Circulation
It gives blood flow a boost, with lots of downstream benefits
System
It treats the entire body all at once, in just 15 minutes
Relaxation
The treatment is warm, relaxing, and extremely pleasant
What is the therapy called?
The scientific name is photobiomodulation. That doesn't exactly roll off the tongue, so we just call it "PBM" or "PBM therapy".
People have been calling it a lot of things, including "Red Light Therapy" and "LED Therapy". We don't recommend red light therapy, because it uses infrared light. We don't call it LED therapy because sometimes the therapy uses lasers, not LEDs.
Photo
Photo means "light" and refers to the red and infrared light
Bio
Bio means "life" and is included because of the biological effect
Modulation
Modulation means "change", to stimulate or inhibit
Room specifications
These are the recommended specifications for the room in which to assign NovoTHOR to. These guidelines should be checked against any local regulations and requirements.
Room size
The ideal room size is 12ft x 12ft, which allows room for the patient to prepare and enough air space to maintain a comfortable ambient room temperature
Environment
To be operated indoors in a dry well ventilated environment without any contact with liquids
Airflow
Ensure nothing obstructs the airflow at each end of the canopy and bench and out of the fan openings
Temperature
Ambient room temperature: no more than 81°F
Humidity
Humidity range: 30% to 75% RH (Non condensing)
Space
Place the NovoTHOR no closer than 6 inches from any wall
Dimensions and specifications
NovoTHOR has specific power requirements. In the United States (and other countries which run 110V mains). You may need some modifications to your power outlet in order to run NovoTHOR. The individual requirements for the different versions of NovoTHOR are available below.
- Overall dimensions: 82 inches / 208 cm L × 38 inches / 96 cm D × 37 inches / 93 cm H
- Weight: 350 lbs
- Maximum power consumption: 2400W
- Voltage range: 220–240 VAC
- Usage amperage: 13A
How does it work?
Photobiomodulation takes advantage of how the body reacts in a positive way to specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light.
When you think about it, it's not that surprising — everyone knows that light has an effect on the human body. Sunlight helps with Vitamin D synthesis. UV light causes a reaction in melanin, changing the colour of our skin. Blue light is used to treat neonatal jaundice.
Evidence
There is a staggering amount of evidence for the efficacy of PBM and new research is being published regularly. It's currently in use at cutting edge hospitals to treat debilitating side effects of chemotherapy (Hematopoietic Stem Cell Transplants).
THOR collaborates with Harvard Medical School, Massachussett's Institute of Technology, and many other leading research hospitals around the world. Evidence for PBM has been published in leading journals, such as The Lancet and is recommended by the World Health Organisation for the treatment of neck pain.
What makes NovoTHOR different?
NovoTHOR is made by THOR Photomedicine. They are the leading experts in the field and are considered a subject matter expert by researchers, hospitals, and clinicians, having presented on the topic to governmental bodies such as the US Congress and the UN.
5-year conditional warranty
THOR warrants that the NovoTHOR will function and perform within
specification for FIVE years from the date of installation. This warranty
covers all parts, labor, and onsite attendance by a THOR approved
engineer for that five-year period with some exclusions (see warranty
document).
