THOR NovoTHOR Light Therapy Pods Recalled for Canopy Detachment Risk

Agency Publication Date: August 22, 2025

Sign in to monitor this recall

Summary

THOR Photomedicine Ltd has recalled approximately 138 NovoTHOR, NovoTHOR XL, and NovoTHOR Gen 3.0 Reg PRX light therapy pods because a welded nut inside the device can fail and shear off. If this nut breaks, the gas strut that supports the pod's heavy canopy can detach on one side, making the canopy extremely difficult to lift or potentially unstable. The recall includes units distributed worldwide, with 108 of the affected pods located in the United States.

Risk

A failed welded nut causes the gas strut to detach from the canopy, which may lead to the heavy canopy falling or becoming difficult to control during use. This poses a risk of impact injuries to users or staff and could make it difficult for an occupant to exit the device safely.
