Photobiomodulation Therapy PBMT
aka Red-Light Therapy
Photobiomodulation Therapy PBMT is a light therapy, conducted with FDA approved Theralight technology, that promotes tissue repair (skin wounds, muscles, tendons, bones, nerves), reduces inflammation or reduces pain. In healthy people it increases strength, reduces fatigue and speeds up recovery.
Health Benefits of Red & Near Infrared Light Therapy
Thousands of peer-reviewed clinical trials and studies on red light therapy have been conducted over the last 3 decades and published in major scientific journals. The evidence is overwhelmingly in favor of its effectiveness & safety, and the FDA has approved light therapy for the treatment of joint pain, reduction of wrinkles, and many other conditions.
Here is an overview of some of the major, clinically proven health benefits of red-light therapy:
Skin, Collagen, and Anti-Aging
Red light therapy feels so rejuvenating because it stimulates the production of collagen, which gives skin its elasticity, hair its strength, and connective tissue its ability to hold everything together.
Training and Muscle Recovery
Numerous trials and studies have found that light therapy helps your body produce more cellular energy and reduces oxidative stress, which helps tired & damaged muscle tissue repair and regenerate faster.
Inflammation and Joint Pain
One of the primary responses to red light therapy is a pronounced reduction in inflammation and oxidative stress, with significantly lowered joint pain.
Melatonin and Sleep
Most people are exposed to a lot of unhealthy artificial light that disrupts your circadian rhythm and makes it harder to sleep. Red and near infrared does the exact opposite and helps protect your internal clock

Health benefits include:
- promotes wound healing and tissue repair
- improves hair growth in people with androgenic alopecia
- help for the short-term treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome
- stimulates healing of slow-healing wounds, like diabetic foot ulcers
- reduces psoriasis lesions
- aids with short-term relief of pain and morning stiffness in people with rheumatoid arthritis
- reduces some of the side effects of cancer treatments, including oral mucositis
- improves skin complexion and builds collagen to diminish wrinkles

Unlike most conventional treatments, red light therapy is safe, non-invasive, uses no chemicals or drugs, and is not associated with harmful side effects. Red light therapy simply harnesses the natural healing and rejuvenating benefits of a specific range of therapeutic natural light and delivers this targeted energy at a higher rate than the sun-without harmful UV rays.

ABOUT THERALIGHT
Not just another light pod. THE Pod! The TheraLight Pod is the only whole body, 360 degree light capsule delivering light from all angles for optimal absorption. TheraLights's key advantage is the usage of 4 light wavelengths at the highest irradiance in the industry. This allows for reduced session times compared to other systems. Specific wavelengths produce different bio-chemical reactions. Utilizing multiple and optimal wavelengths offer accelerated results for a broader scope of conditions. TheraLight is safe, relaxing and free of side effects.
THE PROBLEM & SOLUTION
When our cells age and become stressed, the mitochondria produce their own nitric oxide (NO) which competes with oxygen, and often wins. This molecule blocks the receptor site that Oxygen belongs in during the respiratory process - the process of turning sugar in our blood into cellular energy. With diet (rich in anti-oxidants) and rest, our body manages excess Nitric Oxide. If the body is too stressed it cannot properly remove enough Nitric Oxide fast enough. This causes ROS (reactive oxygen species). This is known as Oxidative Stress. Reactive oxygen species are toxic and begin the process for inflammation, cell death and the expression of genes responsible for cancer, Alzheimer's, osteoarthritis and more.
When red & near IR light is absorbed by a protein in the mitochondria called Cytochrome c Oxidase (CcO), mitochondiral NO (nitric-oxide) is dissociated from CcO and oxygen transport returns to normal. CcO is the last enzyme in the respiratory electron transport chain. This downstream effect increases ATP production among many other beneficial intracellular responses. In other words, the cell functions again at optimal levels. Cells make up tissues. Tissues make up organs. Organs make up humans. All aspects of the 11 organ systems benefit. From faster recovery to improved energy and strength.
ABOUT PHOTOBIOMODULATION

Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT), also known as LLLT (low level laser therapy) is exposing the body to certain light colors (wavelengths) that encourage healing (wounds, tendons, muscles, nerves, bones) and reduces inflammation and pain. There are no side effects and it's non-invasive. It is not a heating therapy nor ablating. In normal healthy individuals, benefits such as improved strength, ATP, recovery time and less fatigue are realized.
