I purchased the red light therapy bag…

I purchased the red light therapy bag with a free face mask. I’ve been using the face mask for about a two weeks now and the bag for about a week and can see improvement in the skin on my face. I also have experienced some pain relief as I suffer with severe chronic widespread pain and have spinal stenosis and spine problems. I can be in terrible pain, lay 40-50 minutes in the bag and start feeling relief after I’ve been in there for a while. I’m looking forward to more benefits the longer I use it. Customer service has been great. My face mask shipped separately from my bag and it showed they had both delivered. They responded and told me the bag had sold out but would be shipping by the end of the next week and it actually shipped on that Tuesday and was here in 2 days. Loving the products so far!

AMAZING

I purchased the Red Light Therapy Bag in January. Absolutely LOVE it. So I purchased a face mask. I am 76 years old and the products make me look AND feel younger. I use it every day and it has minimized aches and pains and helps keep my skin soft and moist. So when the top bag lost some of its red lights in a couple of rows I was very disappointed thinking that I would have to go though a hassle to get it fixed. TO MY SURPRISE Nuvio's customer service is as stellar as their products!! I contacted them through their website and Ossy reached out to me and interceded with tech support on my behalf —two weeks later a new mat showed up at my door. I highly recommend Nuvio Recovery products a great product is elevated to an excellent product when you know they stand behind them with very responsive and competent customer support.

Issue Solved!

I had an issue with one of the three great products I bought from Nuvio and their customer service took care of it quickly and professionally.
The mat, chiller and hat are all great products that I've made part of my daily routine.
Thank you!

Horrible customer support

Horrible customer support. Probably an indicator for product quality. I ordered and received a red light mat and face mask. After doing more research I decided I no longer wanted either product and requested a return label. They responded once asking why. I provided the response and then crickets. I've reached back out to them 3 times since then and they have not responded. I'm not in the process of disputing the charge, since I've never even opened the packing materials. I just want my money back from these people. They're not a reputable company from my experience.

Hi Carl,

We’re really sorry to hear about your experience, we completely understand how frustrating that must be.

This definitely isn’t the level of support we aim to provide. In some cases, replies can get filtered into spam or blocked by email providers, which can make it seem like you’re not getting a response - but either way, we want to get this sorted for you as quickly as possible.

Please could you let us know your order details? We’ll make sure your case is picked up and resolved properly.

Best,
Nuvio

Highly recommended for product quality and customer service.

I purchased a Nuvio red light mat over panels for ease of use and portability. Nuvio was one of the highest rated and more affordable product options, and I love it for recovery and reducing inflammation in my knees. My kids are competitive swimmers so the whole family uses our Nuvio mat. Unfortunately, after a few weeks of use, our power box broke. When I contacted Nuvio customer service, they responded promptly, helped diagnose the problem, and sent me a replacement power box. It's obviously not ideal to have something go wrong with a new product, but I was very impressed with the responsiveness and efficiency of Nuvio's customer service team. Highly recommended.

Return process from Nuvio!Think before you order!

Once we receive the package, our team will carefully inspect the items to verify their condition. This process can take up to 14 business days. After everything is confirmed, I’ll be authorized to process your refund.

When the refund is issued, it may take up to 10 business days to appear in your account, depending on your bank. At this time, no further action is needed on your part. If that changes, I’ll be sure to let you know.

Hi Katina,

We understand how that process can feel a bit long, especially when you’re waiting on a refund.

Just to clarify, the inspection and processing timelines are there to make sure everything is handled correctly and fairly on both sides - once the return is received, it can take up to 14 business days for assessment, followed by a few business days for the refund to show depending on your bank, but we do aim to process things as quickly as we can.

That said, if anything feels unclear or delayed beyond that, our support team is always happy to look into your specific case and provide an update.

Best,
Nuvio

Hi there,

We’re really sorry to hear this, we completely understand why you’d be concerned.

In some cases, items like the bag and mask can ship separately depending on stock and warehouse location, which is likely why you received one but not the other yet. That said, you should have had clear tracking and communication around this.

If you haven’t heard back via email, there’s a good chance our replies may have landed in spam/junk - but either way, we want to get this resolved for you as quickly as possible.

Please let us know your order details and I’ll personally look into where your bag is and make sure you’re taken care of promptly.

Best,
Nuvio

Hi Julian,

We’re really sorry to hear this, that’s definitely not the experience we want for you.

If the motor has failed that quickly, it should fall within our warranty, and our team can take a proper look at this and get it resolved - whether that’s troubleshooting or arranging a replacement.

Please let us know your order details, and we’ll make sure this is handled properly for you.

Great products (mat and mask). Prompt support via email. Willing to fix any issues to make it right.

I had an issue with face mask. Bossy in customer service sent an almost immediate reply from their support email. since the directions are not included with product (accessible on line), I wasnt using the remote properly. Works great now, and I love that AND the mat. I had multiple responses and a willingness by nuvio to do whatever was needed to correct any issues.
Based on the nanometer and irradiance level (that many others do not provide) this one is very effective. The silicone mask a huge improvement from my first hard mask. A+ service and product.

Terrible customer service

Terrible customer service. There isn't any. No phone number. Can't not speak to anyone. Their customer service is AI. They do not respond to emails and SMS. Finally, after trying to reach a real person I was contacted through Messenger after about a month. They state hassle free returns on their advertising. Good luck. The return policy is designed so that you cannot return for a refund. They delete bad reviews on their FB ads. I saw one posted by a customer who received the wrong item and could not return because they opened the box!!! BUYER BEWARE this company is shady.

Hi there,

We’re really sorry to hear about your experience, and we completely understand why you’d feel this way.

This isn’t the level of service we aim to provide at all. We do have a support team (not just AI, which is on our web chat), but delays can sometimes happen during high volumes - that said, a month is not acceptable and we take that seriously. Sometimes our replies can get misdirected to spam/junk inboxes, so we absolutely want to get this checked for you.

Just to clarify on returns, customers are absolutely able to inspect their items - we simply ask that they’re returned in re-saleable condition, for hygiene purposes, and our team is there to guide that process to avoid any issues.

We’d really like the chance to make this right for you. Please let us know your order details and I'll personally pick this up and ensure it gets resolved properly.

Best,
Nuvio

They took my money when they did not have the item

They took my money when they did not have the product to ship. They refused to indicate when I should expect it. It seems a recurring theme for this company and many other reviews are the same product was never delivered.

I requested a refund, but they said they can’t process a refund until after the item is shipped and then returned. So if they don’t get the item shipped, they just keep the money.

I am now out $810.

Hi Richard,

We’re really sorry to hear about this, we completely understand how concerning that situation must feel.

Just to clarify, in some cases orders can be held or split due to stock availability, which can affect shipping timelines - but you should always be kept informed, and we apologize if that hasn’t been clear in your case.

Regarding refunds, we don’t want anyone feeling stuck or out of pocket like this. Please let us know your order details so we can look into the status of your order and get this resolved properly for you as quickly as possible.

Best,

Warning - Return policy pretty much irrelevent

While I like the led mat, the customer service experience was horrible. First, I wanted to exchange for a more expensive product - I asked for the change before I ever used the product. However, if you take it out of the bag (which you have to do to even see the product or test if it works to your liking), then they will not give you a refund or let you return it. This is a warning to anyone who buys it - basically you are stuck with it if you don't like it for any reason. Second the response times were pretty bad (days to respond to email or chat) and all they do is ignore what you are asking and just keep restating their return policy over and over. I suspect they are just buying time to make the 30 days run out. Too bad for them - I actually was planning to spend more $$ with them, but because of this, I won't be buying anything else from them.

Hi there,

We’re really sorry to hear about your experience, and we completely understand your frustration here.

Just to clarify, customers are absolutely able to inspect the product- we simply ask that returns are made in re-saleable condition, for hygiene purposes, but it should never feel like you’re “stuck” with something you’re unhappy with. We also appreciate your feedback on response times, as that’s clearly not the level of service we aim to provide.

It’s especially disappointing to hear this given you were looking to upgrade - that’s exactly the kind of experience we want to get right.

If you’re open to it, please let us know your order details and I’ll personally take a look at your case to see what we can do to help resolve this for you.
