LifeWave FAQ

Here are the answers to some common questions about the Lifewave Phototherapy patches:

WHAT IS PHOTOTHERAPY? The science of phototherapy, which has been around for about 100 years, uses light to improve the health of the body. As far back as two thousand years ago, the ancient Greeks had a center for studying the effects of different colored lights on the body. Even the ancient Egyptians, who promoted health by focusing sunlight through colored glass on certain areas of the body, understood this concept.

HOW DO THE PATCHES WORK? Your body emits heat, including heat in the infrared spectrum. Our patches are designed to trap this infrared energy when placed on the body, which causes them to reflect it back to stimulate specific points on the skin that can promote a general state of health and healthy activity unique to each LifeWave patch.

WHO INVENTED THE PATCHES? The LifeWave technology was invented by David Schmidt, the CEO and Founder of Lifewave. He developed his original phototherapy patch, Energy Enhancer, for the US Navy Seals to stay awake and focused for up to 30 hours at a time while manning subs without caffeine, stimulants, or drugs. David then began inventing different uses for the phototherapy patch technology and started his own company LifeWave, 20 years ago. His passion for helping people led David Schmidt to bring his inventions to the worldwide consumer market for health and performance instead, where it immediately become popular among longevity seekers, professional athletes, and celebrities. Lifewave patches are loved by athletes, doctors, veterinarians, health professionals, and people in over 100 countries!

ARE THERE ANY INGREDIENTS IN THE PATCHES? The patch contains organic crystalline plant-based amino acids, encased within the patch, which activates through the body’s heat and creates infrared signals to the body to support wellness. It is non-transdermal and nothing is absorbed into the skin; it works through the infrared spectrum.

WHERE DO I POSITION THE PATCHES FOR THE BEST RESULTS? The LifeWave patches offer a unique approach to natural health and wellness by harnessing the power of light to stimulate stem cells. Proper placement can significantly enhance its effectiveness, particularly when patches are placed at the base of the neck or just below the belly button. By following the guidelines provided, users can maximize the potential benefits of their LifeWave experience.

1. Placing the patches at the base of the neck, near the C7 vertebra, targets the central nervous system and major blood vessels. This placement may help in enhancing neurological functions and improving overall energy flow. It’s particularly useful for those seeking relief from neurological pain or looking to improve cognitive function.

2. The area just below the belly button is traditionally associated with the body’s center of gravity and is crucial in Eastern medicine. Placing the patch here can stimulate the body’s core, enhancing cellular communication and increasing vitality. This spot is ideal for boosting general wellness and supporting digestive health.

WHAT ARE PRECAUTIONS FOR USING THE PATCHES? Remove immediately if you feel discomfort or if skin irritation occurs. Do not reuse patch once removed from skin. For external use only. Do not ingest. Do not place on broken or irritated skin. Ask a health professional before using if you have a health condition or any questions or concerns about your health. If you have a health condition or are pregnant/nursing, consult a health professional before use. Stay well hydrated while using the patch to enhance its effectiveness. Also, in the first few days and weeks you may experience detox symptoms and drinking a lot of water will help to process that faster.

HOW SHOULD THE PATCHES BE STORED? Store in a cool, dark place, out of direct sunlight. Product should not be exposed to temperatures greater than 104°F and should be stored at room temperature.

WHAT IS THE SHELF LIFE OF THE PATCHES? The shelf life is 24 months.

CAN I USE THE PATCHES WHEN SWIMMING OR IN WATER? Yes, absolutely, you can swim, jacuzzi, shower, and bathe while wearing the patches and they will continue to work properly. They have medical grade hypoallergenic adhesive that stays secure while you are in the water. LifeWave phototherapy patches have been used by athletes on the USA Swimming Olympic team.

WHEN IS THE BEST TIME TO APPLY THE PATCHES? For best results, apply the patch to clean, dry skin first thing in the morning.

HOW LONG SHOULD I WEAR THE PATCHES FOR? Each patch should be worn for up to 12 hours.

CAN I REUSE THE PATCHES? It’s recommended to use a new patch each day for consistent benefits. Apply it to a different location if the previous spot shows any signs of irritation. The LifeWave patches are ionically charged and that charge dissipates through exposure to the infrared light of your body, so using a patch again will not be as effective as a new patch.

 CAN I WEAR THE PATCHES WHILE SLEEPING? Yes, but it is generally recommended to apply them in the morning and wear throughout the day for up to 12 hours.

ARE THERE ANY AGE RESTRICTIONS? The product is not intended for use on children and should be used by adults or under adult supervision.

The X39 and X49 are the two newest patches, and X39 is the best-selling patch by LifeWave now.

HOW LONG SHOULD I USE THE PATCHES FOR? You may feel changes right away but the big changes happen after 6 weeks or more so commit to 90 days.

CAN I USE MULTIPLE PATCHES AT ONCE? Yes, when you use the X39 patch each day, you can also wear other LifeWave patches at the same time, such as X49 for fitness, IceWave for pain relief, and Glutathione, for immune support, to accelerate results.
