What are the preset sessions on my G5?Updated 5 hours ago
Your G5 comes with seven preset sessions, each a ready-made mix of wavelengths, brightness and session time. Press Preset Sessions on the main screen, tap one to see its settings, then press Apply.
| Preset session | Designed for | Time |
|---|---|---|
| Collagen Boost | Skin tone, texture and the look of fine lines | 12 min |
| Muscle Primer | Warming muscles before activity | 8 min |
| Joint Pain | Deeper light for joints and stiffness | 20 min |
| Wound & Scar Repair | Intact skin: healed wounds and established scars | 10 min |
| Evening Wind-Down | A gentler end-of-day session | 15 min |
| Energy & Focus | A short, bright start to the day | 10 min |
| Recover & Restore | Recovery after exertion | 15 min |
All seven run with pulsing off. Never use Wound & Scar Repair on open or unhealed wounds.
Why do some preset sessions use the same wavelengths? Wound & Scar Repair and Evening Wind-Down use the same mix of wavelengths because that mix is associated with both goals. One set of wavelengths can serve more than one purpose. What differs is the dose: Wound & Scar Repair runs for 10 minutes and Evening Wind-Down for 15.

Make your own. Open any preset session, change its brightness, time or individual wavelengths, then press Save to your preset, type a name and press OK. You can save up to 12, listed under Create your own. Press and hold one to rename or remove it.
Want a visual reference? See Preset Sessions on the interactive G5 control panel.
Want more red light? Set Wavelengths to RED. With the near-infrared LEDs off, the red LEDs run brighter, so you get more red light in the same time. Because of that, you may want shorter sessions. See What are the G5 specifications? for readings at each distance, or use the dosing calculator.
