Photo Bio Modulation (PBM) means using photons (light) on biological material to modulate — or encourage — positive change.
How it works
A light source is placed near or in contact with the skin. Light energy penetrates the tissue and interacts with chromophores in the cells, creating photophysical and photochemical changes at the molecular, cellular and tissue levels. These reactions can support wound healing and tissue regeneration, increase circulation, reduce acute inflammation and help relieve acute and chronic pain.
Red vs near-infrared
Red light (around 660 nm) is absorbed close to the surface, while near-infrared light (810 nm and 1050 nm) reaches deeper tissues such as muscles and joints. SunpowerLED™ devices combine both.
