  2. Limit your activity beforehand (no exercise)

  3. Refrain from taking any caffeine or stimulants the day of your test and avoid alcohol within 12 hours of it

  4. Wear comfortable clothing. If you're scheduled for a VO2 test, you will need workout shoes and clothes

  5. Workout, casual, or even business clothes are all acceptable, as you will just be relaxing in a chair

Red Light Therapy

  1. Drink plenty of water before and after your session to help support cellular function and enhance the body's response to treatment.

  2. Avoid excessive makeup and don't apply any oils, lotions or moisturizers to your skin within an hour before your appointment as these can prevent the light from penetrating.

  3. You have the option to stand or sit for the duration of your session. There is a sweet spot for treatment with red light. The maximum amount of time you should expose your body to this concentrated red light is 15-20 minutes a day. MORE IS NOT BETTER!

  4. Wear comfortable light clothing such as shorts, tank-top, sports bra or bathing suit for your session. You will not be fully undressing for this service. Eye protection will be provided and is required.
