Conditions & Uses of PBM

Please see our list below of conditions helped by Photobiomodulation (PBM) and some of the many uses of PBM, listed alphabetically.

Transcranial Photobiomodulation (tPBM)

Research exploring the use of targeted red and near-infrared light through the scalp for non-invasive neurological applications.

Achilles Tendonitis

Tendonitis is due to inflammation, like all conditions ending in “-itis,” so PBM can be very helpful!

Alzheimer’s
