Benefits of Photobiomodulation Therapy (PBM)

PBM utilises low-level visible to near-infrared light energy, which stimulates cells to naturally heal, relieve pain and reduce inflammation. The process creates three key mechanisms of action: 1. PBM energy is absorbed by cytochrome c oxidase in mitochondria in the cell and results in an increase in ATP, a natural fuel for cell activity and metabolism. 2. The process creates mild oxidants (ROS), which leads to gene transcription and cellular repair and healing. 3. PBM therapy helps to dilate blood vessels and improves blood circulation through the action of the signaling molecule Nitric Oxide.
