Not Just Terminology Photobiomodulation Therapy (PBMT) is the safe non-thermal use of focused and isolated light-waves applied near or against the skin to create changes in the cells, causing reactions to damaged and diseased tissues to begin healing, triggering increased circulation, and reduced inflammation and pain. Photobiomodulation allows for accelerated return to normal cellular function and has been found to enhance performance in normal tissues and cells as well. As of 2016, the term Photobiomodulation was added to the National Library of Medicine’s controlled vocabulary thesaurus in response to the lack of consistency, and consensus, within the therapy with light…

Since the early 1960’s the technology behind Low Level Light Therapy has been making waves. Light Waves. But within the last 50 years, the science, once proposed by Albert Einstein, who, in 1917 projected that electrons could be stimulated to emit light of a particular wavelength, has caught up to the technology, and has become Photobiomodulation. Light created Life, and has been worshiped by civilizations through out time. With out Light, we would not exist.What is Photobiomodulation?In 2015 the term Photobiomodulation was added to the National Library of Medicine controlled vocabulary thesaurus to alleviate inconsistent terminology for Low Light…

Light: it allows life!We Live in a World of Light.The Miracle of our sun provides us with oxygen, essential nutrients and allows us to read this page. The Earth’s sun is the reason life can exist on this planet, and our relationship with light and the process of how our bodies react with it is called photobiomodulation.Although scientist have been experimenting with light therapy, including laser therapy since the 1960’s, recent understanding of how photobiomodulation effects the cells, and, improvements in devices has given low laser light therapy a new name. As of 2014, Photobiomodulation (PBM)…
