Recently, experts have chosen photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) as a more accurate term
that describes the therapeutic use of red and near-infrared wavelengths of light energy from
laser OR light emitting diodes (LEDs) that interact with photoreceptors. These produce
photochemical reactions that have a positive effect on cellular metabolism and recovery from
damage and inflammation. BIOFLEX is the only laser therapy company that utilizes powerful
Class 3b lasers together with large surface arrays of bicolour LEDs that affect a large volume of
circulating blood as well as underlying tissues resulting in both a powerful systemic and direct
photobiomodulation effect. The overall clinical effect of targeting both the injured/diseased
tissues as well as the surrounding circulatory system is an unsurpassed accelerated healing
response and decrease in pain, inflammation, edema and associated symptoms.
Compared to other treatments, PBMT improves cellular metabolism and tissues healing. In
this way, it can act synergistically with manual therapies and other modalities to help
patients recover from musculoskeletal and peripheral nerve injuries with decreased
symptoms, less scar tissue, accelerated cell regeneration and improved function.
