Let’s Talk About Light 

Light is an essential nutrient for life, just like water, air, and nutrition. The direct, intentional application of photon energy (light) initiates beneficial physiologic effects on living tissue by a process called photobiomodulation. Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT), previously called low-level laser (or light) therapy (LLLT) in the literature, has been known for over 40 years for its ability to promote tissue repair, decrease inflammation and produce pain relieving analgesia using a low-power light source, either laser or LED.¹ 

PBMT is a safe and effective self-care tool
delivered by light-emitting diodes.

PBMT is gaining more widespread acceptance in mainstream medicine as researchers resolve the underlying questions surrounding the mechanisms of action at the molecular, cellular, and tissue levels of living organisms. The most common clinical applications for PBMT are: on injured sites to promote healing, remodeling, and/or to reduce inflammation; on nerves to induce analgesia; on lymph nodes in order to reduce edema and inflammation, and on trigger points (a single one or as many as 15 points) to promote muscle relaxation and to reduce tenderness.²

A broad range of applications

Scientific evidence points to PBMT as a non-invasive, non-pharmacologic neuromodulating intervention with a broad range of applications ranging from wound healing to neuromodulation of injured brain tissue to athletic performance and sports injury recovery. Healthcare providers and general users continually report benefits of photobiomodulation with routine use of polychromatic light emitting diode (LED) or other low level photon technology.
