Short- and long-term effects of whole-body photobiomodulation on pain, functionality, tissue quality, central sensitisation and psychological factors in a population suffering from fibromyalgia
PBM therapy has been shown to reduce pain and inflammation and to increase the rate of tissue repair for a wide range of conditions, but its potential use as a whole-body treatment in FM is yet to be explored.
OPEN FILERed Light and the Sleep Quality and Endurance Performance of Chinese Female Basketball Players
Our study confirmed the effectiveness of body irradiation with red light in improving the quality of sleep of elite female basketball players and offered a nonpharmacologic and noninvasive therapy to prevent sleep disorders after training.
OPEN FILEFull-Body Photobiomodulation Therapy Is Associated with Reduced Sleep Durations and Augmented Cardiorespiratory Indicators of Recovery
Enhanced cardiorespiratory indicators of recovery following PBMT, despite significant reductions in sleep duration, suggest that it may be an effective modality for maintaining adequate recovery from the high stress loads experienced by elite athletes.
OPEN FILEWhole body photobiomodulation improves post-exercise recovery
Whole body PBM elicited the ability to work at a higher heart rate throughout testing and seemed to enhance recovery through improved HRV the following morning.
OPEN FILEUse of either transcranial or whole-body photobiomodulation treatments improves COVID-19 brain fog
This study outlines the benefits of utilizing PBM therapy (transcranial or whole-body) to help treat long-COVID brain fog.
OPEN FILEA Controlled Trial to Determine the Efficacy of Red and Near-Infrared Light Treatment in Patient Satisfaction, Reduction of Fine Lines, Wrinkles, Skin Roughness, and Intradermal Collagen Density Increase
... PBM have demonstrated efficacy and safety for skin rejuvenation and intradermal collagen increase when compared with controls.
OPEN FILEWhole-body photobiomodulation therapy for chronic pain
A whole-body therapy device has recently been developed with a number of potential advantages for people with chronic pain. Research is needed to consider the feasibility of this device.
OPEN FILEFull Body Photobiomodulation Therapy to Induce Faster Muscle Recovery in Water Polo Athletes
The parameters of the full body PBMT of this study did not induce faster recovery of inflammatory, muscle damage (excepting LDH), testosterone, cortisol, HRV, and neuromuscular responses during repeated days of water polo matches.
OPEN FILEDifferential Response of Human Dermal Fibroblast Subpopulations to Visible and Near-Infrared Light Potential of Photobiomodulation for Addressing Cutaneous Conditions
This study highlights a differential impact of light on human skin cells with upregulation of metabolic activity with NIR light, and inhibition of pro-collagen production and proliferation in response to blue light.
OPEN FILEChanges in Circadian Variations in Blood Pressure, Pain Pressure Threshold and the Elasticity of Tissue after a Whole-Body Photobiomodulation Treatment in Patients with Fibromyalgia
Whole-body PBM produces changes in circadian blood pressure, the pain pressure threshold and the elasticity of tissue after a treatment program was carried out.
