FAQ
What is Taopatch® SPORT?
Taopatch® SPORT is a nanotechnology-based light therapy device developed for sportspeople and athletes of every level.
How does Taopatch® work?
Taopatch® devices are applied to specific points on the body using regular medical tape or hypoallergenic adhesives. Body heat activates the device, which emits specific wavelengths of therapeutic light designed to support the body’s natural balance and recovery processes.
How is Taopatch® SPORT used?
Taopatch® SPORT is placed on specific points of the body, many of which correspond to acupuncture points. While this may sound complex, the application is simple and user-friendly. Basic placement protocols are recommended for rebalancing and pain management, while more advanced protocols can be tailored to individual needs, including support for recovery, athletic performance, cognitive function, and emotional wellness.
How long does Taopatch® SPORT last?
Each Taopatch® SPORT device has a lifespan of 2.5 years. Each box contains 3 devices, designed to be used simultaneously.
Is Taopatch® safe?
Taopatch® is a non-transdermal device designed for safe use. In Europe, it is classified as a Class I medical device.
Is Taopatch® covered by insurance?
To the best of our knowledge, Taopatch® is not currently covered by most U.S. health insurance providers. As it is based on a new patented technology, insurance coverage policies may change in the future, and we hope to share positive updates on this soon.
Are there any side effects associated with Taopatch® SPORT?
No known side effects have been reported from using Taopatch® products. Taopatch® is also compatible with other medications.
Are there any medications I should avoid while using the device?
Taopatch® can be used whether or not you are taking other medications. There are no known contraindications, as the devices do not release any chemical substances into the body. Instead, they use a patented form of low-level laser light therapy.
What is photobiomodulation?
Photobiomodulation is the use of specific wavelengths of light to support cellular activity and promote the body’s natural physiological processes. It is commonly associated with light-based technologies designed to help support functions such as recovery, balance, and overall well-being.
Unlike traditional photobiomodulation, which generally relies on external light sources, Taopatch® is designed to work continuously while worn, delivering a broad spectrum of beneficial wavelengths. Using quantum dot nanotechnology, Taopatch® converts body heat into specific light wavelengths. When applied to targeted points on the body, it provides continuous light-based stimulation intended to interact with the nervous system and support the body’s natural regulatory functions.
What is the difference between light therapy and phototherapy?
Light therapy and phototherapy are often used interchangeably and generally refer to the same concept. Traditional light therapy usually relies on external light sources, such as LEDs or lasers, to deliver targeted wavelengths to the body. Taopatch®, however, uses quantum dot nanotechnology to transform body heat into therapeutic light wavelengths, offering a different and continuous approach.
