NrG was designed around a simple goal: combine a broad purpose-selected spectrum, deep user control, full-body hardware, and transparent measurement at a price that makes comparison worthwhile.
Wearables such as wraps, masks, and hair-growth caps can be convenient for one localized job. A well-designed panel gives you a larger illuminated field, active cooling, adjustable distance, and a broader set of independently controlled wavelengths—so one system can support far more session goals and body positions.
Wraps commonly use lower-powered LEDs in close contact with the skin and have limited room for heat management. Full-size panels can use active cooling and higher-output hardware while letting distance and intensity remain adjustable.
Many wearables use a fixed red/NIR blend selected for one task. Aura, Aurora, and Phoenix provide nine separate wavelength channels with independent intensity control, Smart Scenes, and fully custom session setup. Custom 1–4 user-programmed scenes are not available on all panels.
A panel can be used for broad coverage or repositioned for a specific area. That flexibility makes it easier to explore research-informed sessions involving skin, scalp, muscles, joints, tendons, bone, recovery, and general wellness without buying a different wearable for every area.
| Design consideration | NrG panel systems | Wraps, masks, and caps |
|---|---|---|
| Coverage | Targeted through full-body, depending on panel size and distance | Usually localized to one body area or form factor |
| Spectrum | Nine independently adjustable channels on Aura, Aurora, and Phoenix | Often a fixed, smaller wavelength set |
| Output management | Active cooling, adjustable intensity, and adjustable working distance | Close-contact designs commonly use lower-powered LEDs and limited cooling |
| Session flexibility | Smart Scenes plus custom wavelength, intensity, pulse, time, and positioning | Convenient for a specific area, but generally more one-dimensional |
A quality wrap, mask, or cap can be a convenient choice when portability and one repeatable application matter most. NrG panels are designed for people who want broader coverage, more adjustability, and one platform capable of many different session configurations.
Instead of leaning on one headline number, NrG is built around the combination of spectrum, control, hardware, measurement transparency, and usability.
NrG combines a deliberately selected visible and near-infrared spectrum rather than chasing the largest wavelength count. The complete wavelength explanations and representative research are centralized on Wavelength Science.
Each wavelength can be adjusted independently instead of being locked into a fixed spectral ratio.
Phoenix uses 1,152 dual-chip lenses—2,304 total LED chips—across a 74.5-inch illumination surface.
Phoenix measured 82.501 mW/cm² at 6 inches on an OHSP-350IR spectrometer. The measurement method matters, so we show it.
Use one-touch presets when you want speed, or set wavelength mix, intensity, pulse, and time yourself.
NrG-AURA, NrG-AURORA, NrG-PHOENIX, and NrG-PRIZM include a 3-year warranty. NrG-SPARK includes a 1-year warranty.
Phoenix and PRIZM use open layouts rather than a traditional clamshell canopy. The difference is more than appearance: open geometry gives you more ways to control comfort, access, positioning, and optical exposure.
For users who dislike enclosed spaces, the open layout feels less confined and keeps the area around the head and face visually open.
Open sides allow surrounding room air to circulate around the user rather than enclosing the body beneath an upper shell. Actual comfort still depends on room conditions and session settings.
Changing distance changes irradiance and coverage. Phoenix Signature adds remote-controlled motorized height adjustment, while its 360° panel rotation is manual.
A stronger red/NIR body-focused session does not require the face to receive the same geometry or intensity. Position the field over the body, keep the face farther away, or reduce selected wavelengths when preferred.
Phoenix can move between standing, seated, targeted, and horizontal use. PRIZM brings the same open-access philosophy to a dedicated commercial upper-and-lower-array format.
Open sides make it easier to enter, exit, reposition an arm or leg, adjust supports, or reach the user during a professional wellness session without a canopy surrounding them.
These are practical starting ranges—not medical prescriptions. Intensity can also be adjusted directly at the panel, and individual comfort varies.
Higher available intensity with a red + NIR-rich or fully custom spectrum for targeted body sessions.
A balanced starting range for broader coverage with moderate intensity and a custom wavelength mix.
A gentler starting position with lower intensity. Use a visible-light-forward mix and reduce or disable NIR if that is more comfortable for your skin.
This compares general design characteristics. Traditional clamshell systems vary by manufacturer and model.
| Design consideration | NrG open-air design | Traditional clamshell design |
|---|---|---|
| User experience | Open sides; no canopy over the face | Upper shell positioned over the user |
| Room airflow | Open to surrounding room air | More enclosed treatment space |
| Treatment distance | Can be changed with positioning | Generally more fixed by bed geometry |
| Face vs. body exposure | Can be managed differently through position, distance, and wavelength controls | Harder to separate geometrically during whole-body use |

The NrG Light mark is built around an eclipse. The arc and starburst represent light moving around the edge of the sun, while the circular form echoes the optical lenses repeated across an NrG panel.
Visible and near-infrared wavelengths are naturally present in sunlight. The eclipse connects that natural source of light with the carefully selected wavelengths used in NrG systems.
The circular sweep also mirrors the individual round optical lenses repeated across the face of an NrG panel.
Sunlight contains a broad spectrum. NrG uses a defined set of visible and near-infrared wavelengths and gives the user control over intensity, time, pulse, distance, and spectral mix.
Different sizes, one design philosophy. Compare the core hardware, controls, and warranty without digging through fine print.
