Low-Level Light/Laser Therapy Versus Photobiomodulation Therapy [PDF]

Photomedicine and Laser Surgery, 2015
As Juliet states: “What's in a name? That which we call a rose by any other name would smell as sweet.”1 However, a name, if ill-conceived and lacking a clear definition, can have profound effects on the image and acceptance of a therapy by mainstream medicine. Sunlight has much anecdotal use in ancient scriptures.

The Nuts and Bolts of Low-level Laser (Light) Therapy [PDF]

Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 2011
Soon after the discovery of lasers in the 1960s it was realized that laser therapy had the potential to improve wound healing and reduce pain, inflammation and swelling. In recent years the field sometimes known as photobiomodulation has broadened to include light-emitting diodes and other light sources, and the range of wavelengths used now includes ...
