Phototherapy devices have always been one of the best tools for many people.
Originally, this device was developed to treat people with SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder), depression and insomnia.
However, as technology advanced, researchers found that this therapy could also be used for various other treatments such as muscle growth, skin care, and more.
Plus, light therapies don't have as many side effects and can be very easy to use if you want your device to be top notch, more efficient, and more durable. So it is important that you maintain your device!
According to some users, their device did not last long due to poor maintenance practices. So, in this article, you will learn everything you need to know about maintaining your own device.
Know your device before you start maintenance
You need to understand what type of therapy device or lamp you are using. When you know all the nuts and bolts in your device, you will eventually come up with the idea of holding the device.
For example, if you are using infrared light therapy, the light will obviously not come out of your device because the infrared light is not in the visible range. Hence, the assumption that it is broken is completely wrong.
That's why you need to get to know your device first and then move on to maintenance!
Keep the device turned off when you are not using it
It is very bad to leave the device on, especially when it is not in use. Many users tend to keep their devices powered on even after they have finished their regular sessions.
Never do that!
Electronic devices are only to be used when you need them. When you're done, skip it.
Leaving the LED lights switched on when not in use can damage the lights.
Therefore, I strongly recommend that you leave your device switched off after your therapy session has ended. You can also read the manual supplied with the therapy device . Hence, you will have no doubt about it.
Keep the device out of the reach of children.
These devices aren't cheap, so you definitely want your device to last for a long time.
If you have children in your house, I recommend that you keep the device out of their reach. Since children can be mean at times, their curiosity about the device can negatively affect your device.
The device could fall out of your hand or worse, it could even fall on you! You also don't want your child harmed or their device damaged.
Hence, it is best to keep your device out of range to avoid bad luck.
Never clean the LED lights with liquids!
One of the mistakes many previous users have made is cleaning their therapy lamps with water or even alcohol.
Never do that; Cleaning the LED lights with liquid is a big NO-NO! These lamps are delicate and can be damaged very quickly if enough water gets into them.
You will most likely find that some lights are not working and that's fine. They can also be infrared lamps.
So if you see things that some of your lights are not working properly, don't worry. Just call customer service and they will provide further procedures. However, never allow these bubbles to come into contact with liquids.
Yes, there is little you can do to keep your lightbulbs dust-free. You can use a dry blower or even an air duster to remove dust particles from your LED lights.
Clean the outside with clean water or alcohol.
Here you can clean your device with liquid. You can use alcohol or even a cloth soaked in clean, wrung water. And then you can remove all of the dust from the outside of the device.
However, make sure to unplug the device when cleaning the device with water or alcohol.
As before, there is still the possibility of a short circuit or worse; You may receive an electric shock.
Never turn on or use the device when it is wet
After cleaning the external device with clean water, give it time to dry. Never rush to turn on or use the device as there is a risk of electric shock.
Use a fan, clothes dryer, or even a dry towel to allow the device to dry quickly. If you want to avoid all of this annoyance, you can simply store the device under the ceiling fan until it is completely dry.
Once it is completely dry, you can use the device.
Is it wise to share your device with other people?
This is a common question that comes to mind for many users. Frankly, the answer depends entirely on your personal perspective. Since this is your device, it can be done if you want to share it conveniently.
However, I recommend that you do not give your device to anyone else if you are using an oral appliance or even a lip balm.
On the other hand, if you wear the device on your hands, chest, neck, or even on your face, you can share the device with another person as the only contact of the device was with the surface of the skin .
If you asked me anyway, I'd say sharing your device with someone really isn't a good decision.
This is because the way you care for the device may not be the other person's. And it can even affect the durability and performance of your device.
Hope this article helps you know how to maintain your light therapy device!
