THE CUTTING EDGE
Volume 51 : Number 5 : Page 259 : May 2017
Photobiomodulation (PBM) and photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) are two terms we are hearing more about in our profession and other areas of health care.

PBMT is also being applied for smoking cessation, weight loss, addiction therapy, nerve regeneration, and more. Current research is investigating its use to mitigate the effects of Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s diseases. It seems almost too good to be true, but studies on the effects of light in the red-to-infrared range (600-1,070nm) have validated PBMT’s effects on a cellular level.
