The MedLight M5N and M5N+ are commercial full-body red light therapy pods developed for recovery rooms, wellness centers, gyms, sports facilities, beauty clinics and spas.
Both models combine five red and near-infrared wavelengths with independent wavelength control, adjustable pulse settings and full-body coverage. The pod-shaped design surrounds the user with light from above and below, helping facilities provide a consistent full-body session without repositioning separate panels.
M5N and M5N+ have the same body size, control system and operating functions. The main differences are LED quantity, power and electrical current. Buyers can therefore select the model that better matches their expected appointment volume, room capacity and investment plan.
Description and Benefits
Full-body coverage for professional recovery rooms
The M5N series uses a surrounding capsule design with upper and lower LED sections. The user lies inside the pod while large areas of the body receive light during the same session.
This format is practical for facilities that want to provide full-body red light therapy in a private treatment room. Compared with using several separate panels, staff do not need to adjust multiple stands or ask the client to change position halfway through the session.
The acrylic bench has high light transmittance, while the surrounding light layout helps maintain broad and consistent coverage.
Five wavelengths in one red light therapy pod
The M5N and M5N+ use five wavelengths:
- 633 nm red light
- 660 nm red light
- 810 nm near-infrared light
- 850 nm near-infrared light
- 940 nm near-infrared light
The red wavelengths are commonly selected for surface-level skin exposure. The near-infrared wavelengths penetrate more deeply and are often used in routines focused on muscles, joints and exercise recovery.
Each wavelength can be controlled independently. Operators may select one wavelength, combine several wavelengths or use all available wavelengths, depending on the required protocol.
M5N or M5N+: which model fits your facility?
The M5N is fitted with 16,560 LEDs and has a rated power of 3,000 W. It is suitable for commercial facilities that need a professional full-body pod but expect a moderate number of daily appointments.
The M5N+ increases the LED quantity to 38,600 and the rated power to 5,500 W. It is designed for buyers who want a higher-output configuration or plan to use the machine frequently throughout the day.
| Model | LED Quantity | Current at 220 V | Rated Power |
|---|---|---|---|
| M5N | 16,560 pcs | 14 A | 3,000 W |
| M5N+ | 38,600 pcs | 25 A | 5,500 W |
A higher LED quantity does not automatically mean a better commercial return. Buyers should also consider room availability, local power capacity, expected appointment volume and the service price in their market.
Commercial-level irradiance
The specified output ranges from approximately 630 to 1,241 W/m², with irradiance up to 120 mW/cm².
Actual exposure depends on the selected wavelengths, pulse settings, protocol and the user’s position inside the pod. When comparing commercial red light therapy pods, buyers should review irradiance together with coverage, operating distance, wavelength control and cooling performance.
Preset protocols and manual control
The control system provides six preset protocols and one manual mode. Staff can select a prepared protocol for routine appointments or use manual mode when a customized combination is required.
Adjustable settings include:
- Session duration
- Wavelength selection
- Pulse frequency
- Duty cycle
- Body-cooling fan speed
- Music volume
- Temperature settings
Pulse frequency can be adjusted from continuous output to 1,000 Hz. When the duty cycle is set to 100%, the LEDs operate in continuous-wave mode. At a lower duty cycle, the light operates in pulsed mode.
This flexibility is useful for professional facilities offering several red light therapy programs from the same machine.
Smart control and usage records
The M5N series can be operated through Smart Controller 2.0 or an optional Wireless Pad Controller 2.0.
The system supports usage records, preset protocol management, temperature monitoring and Wi-Fi configuration. A tablet or compatible Android device can also be connected when the optional app-control function is selected.
Usage records help managers review recent sessions and monitor machine activity. This can be useful in facilities with several employees or multiple treatment rooms.
Bluetooth music for a better client experience
A built-in Bluetooth stereo system allows users to listen to music during a session. Volume, track selection and playback can be controlled through the operating interface.
Music does not change treatment performance, but it can make a 10–20 minute session feel more comfortable. This small detail is especially useful for spas, wellness centers and premium recovery rooms.
Cooling for repeated commercial use
A high-output red light therapy pod needs effective temperature management. The M5N series uses a self-circulating forced-air cooling system to remove internal heat.
The body-cooling fan offers three speed levels. Operators can also set the machine cooling-fan startup temperature, overheat warning temperature and fan-delay time after a session.
The fan-delay function allows the cooling system to continue working after the LEDs stop. This helps the machine cool before the next appointment.
The room must still have sufficient ventilation. Avoid placing the pod in a narrow enclosed area or directly against a wall.
Comfortable pod structure
The M5N series combines acrylic panels, ABS engineering plastic and aluminium structural components. The flat bench and surrounding canopy provide a comfortable lying position while maintaining broad light coverage.
Protective eyewear is included. Clients should remove clothing from the intended exposure area and take off jewellery, cosmetics or accessories where practical.
A common routine is 10–20 minutes per session, 3–5 times per week. Facilities should establish their own protocols based on the selected output settings and the client’s tolerance.
The M5N series is intended as a wellness and recovery product. It should not replace professional medical diagnosis or treatment.

Room and Electrical Planning
The pod measures 2275 mm long and 1250 mm wide, so buyers should check the complete delivery route before ordering. This includes external doors, corridors, lifts, stairways and the entrance to the final treatment room.
The open height is approximately 1460 mm. Additional space is required around the machine for ventilation, cleaning and servicing. Keep at least 300 mm between the machine and walls, with more working clearance where possible. If two pods are installed in the same room, allow approximately 1000 mm between them.
The manual recommends a dedicated electrical circuit:
- For a 220 V configuration, prepare a suitable single-phase circuit capable of supporting the required load.
- For a 380 V configuration, prepare a suitable three-phase circuit with the correct circuit protection.
The exact breaker, cable size, grounding and connection method must follow local regulations. A qualified electrician should check the final requirements before installation.
Applications
Sports and performance recovery rooms
The M5N series provides a full-body option for gyms, sports clubs and athlete recovery centers. Sessions can be scheduled before or after training without requiring staff to reposition several smaller devices.
Wellness centers
Independent wavelength control allows a wellness center to create different service packages from one machine. Operators can use preset routines for regular appointments and reserve manual settings for customized sessions.
Spas and beauty clinics
The pod format provides more privacy than an open panel setup. Bluetooth music, adjustable fan speed and a comfortable lying position also help create a premium client experience.
