How it Works

Science Behind Red Light Therapy

Step 1

Light Absorption

Red and near-infrared wavelengths of light penetrate the skin and are absorbed by the cells, specifically the mitochondria (the “powerhouses” of cells).

Step 2

Cellular Energy Boost

This absorption helps mitochondria produce more ATP (cellular energy), which supports faster repair, reduced oxidative stress, and better overall cell function.

Step 3

Reduced Pain & Inflammation

With improved cellular activity, tissues can heal more efficiently. This leads to less inflammation, improved circulation, and relief from joint pain and stiffness.

Benefits of Red Light Therapy

supports recovery

Support recovery of damaged blood vessels and cartilage

Studies have shown that red light therapy can support the recovery of damaged blood vessels and cartilage by:

  • Increasing cellular energy production
  • Promoting collagen synthesis
  • Reducing inflammation in the affected tissues

INFLAMMATION

Reduce inflammation and joint pain

Research has shown that red light therapy may support healthy inflammation responses and joint comfort — benefits the MOVE+ Pro is designed to deliver.

  • Increasing blood flow
  • Promoting cellular repair
  • Reducing oxidative stress in the affected tissues

ENDURANCE

Boost Strength and Endurance

Studies have suggested that Kineon MOVE+ Pro's targeted red light therapy can help boost strength and endurance by:

  • Increasing muscle activation and recruitment
  • Improving neuromuscular coordination
  • Enhancing blood flow and oxygen delivery to the muscles

Mobility

Improved mobility and flexibility

Red light therapy is known to support the body’s natural recovery processes — helping you move more freely and stay active.

  • Supporting joint range of motion and flexibility
  • Encouraging muscle relaxation and tissue elasticity
  • Promoting circulation to keep muscles and joints supple

Effect of near-infrared light-emitting diodes on nerve regeneration

In this study, LED irradiation improved nerve regeneration and increased antioxidation levels in the chamber fluid. Therefore, we propose that antioxidation induced by LEDs may be conducive to nerve regeneration.

Photobiomodulation for knee osteoarthritis: a model-based dosimetry study

In this study, an example knee phototherapy device was compared with The MOVE+ Pro for treating knee osteoarthritis (KOA) with light therapy. The combination of (1) adjusted optical power between LEDs and lasers to balance the therapeutic dose within the tissue, (2) easy changes to the illuminated position and (3) flexibility might make MOVE+ a better solution.

What’s your 30-day free trial policy?

If you’re not completely satisfied with the results after 30 days of continuous treatment, we will offer you a refund or further guidance.

All we ask is that you use the MOVE+ Pro 3-5 times per week for 5-15 minutes per day over 4 weeks. If there is still no improvement, we will provide you with a refund.

How long does a treatment take?

We recommend using the device for 5 - 15 minutes per day for optimal results, depending on the issue being treated.

Consistency is key with this. So doing a short treatment every day will be more effective than doing longer sessions more sporadically.

Can this help with knee pain?

The MOVE+ is specifically designed to help relieve knee pain, whether it’s caused by arthritis, injury, or overuse. Using clinically proven red and infrared light wavelengths, the MOVE+ targets inflammation deep within the joint, improves circulation, and supports the body’s natural healing processes. Many users report reduced pain, better mobility, and less stiffness within weeks of consistent use. Whether you’re dealing with chronic discomfort or recovering from strain, the MOVE+ offers a safe, non-invasive option to support long-term knee health.

Does MOVE+ work for arthritis/chronic conditions?

Red light therapy has been shown to significantly reduce pain and improve mobility in people with knee osteoarthritis. In a 2019 meta-analysis, they concluded that light therapy significantly reduces pain and disability in knee osteoarthritis patients when compared with placebo - even during follow-ups 1-12 weeks later.

The MOVE+ uses the same clinically validated wavelengths to target inflammation, support joint health, and provide long-lasting relief from chronic pain.

Is it safe? Are there side effects?

Red light therapy is non-invasive, drug-free, and considered very safe when used as directed. Most people experience no side effects at all. Unlike painkillers or invasive treatments, it works gently with your body to reduce inflammation and support healing, without causing harm or discomfort.

How does MOVE+ work?

The MOVE+ works by delivering powerful red and near-infrared light deep into your joints and tissues, where it stimulates cellular repair, reduces inflammation, and promotes blood flow. This light energy penetrates below the skin to reach the damaged or inflamed areas, encouraging your body’s natural healing processes at a cellular level. As a result, users often experience reduced pain, improved joint mobility, and faster recovery from injury or overuse.

Is this device backed by science?

The MOVE+ is built on decades of clinical research into red and near-infrared light therapy. These wavelengths have been scientifically shown to reduce inflammation, relieve pain, and support tissue repair. The technology behind MOVE+ is trusted by physical therapists, athletes, and healthcare professionals worldwide.

How is it different to other devices?

Unlike many red light devices that use low-power LEDs or treat only the skin’s surface, the MOVE+ delivers clinically effective wavelengths using laser diodes that penetrate deeper into joints and tissues. It’s also fully portable, adjustable, and designed specifically for targeted pain relief — no bulky panels or complicated setups. You get precise, medical-grade treatment at home, with none of the hassle.

How do you clean the MOVE+ Pro?

While cleaning the MOVE+ please consider using alcohol free anti-bacterial wipes. We recommend avoiding the use of abrasive liquids or alcohol containing products as this can damage the silicone coating of the modules

How long does it take to see results?

Most people start to feel relief within 1 to 3 weeks of consistent use, with some noticing improvements even sooner. For chronic or long-term conditions, results may continue to build over 4 to 6 weeks as inflammation decreases and tissue healing progresses. Like any therapy, consistency is key — using the MOVE+ daily delivers the best outcomes over time.
