Photobiomodulation - Class IV Medical Laser Therapy

Explore photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy, also known as red light and near-infrared light therapy, in this comprehensive medical lecture. Learn how specific wavelengths of light penetrate tissue to modulate cellular activity and understand the underlying science of how PBM affects mitochondria, ATP production, oxidative stress, and tissue healing processes. Discover the clinical applications for treating musculoskeletal injuries, neuropathic pain, wound healing, and degenerative diseases. Examine safety considerations and concerns for effective therapeutic use, then apply knowledge through practical case scenarios. Get hands-on exposure to the Summus Horizon Class IV Laser system through real treatment demonstrations, including an intervertebral disc disease (IVDD) case study and cervical spine therapy session. Master the fundamentals of light wavelengths used in red light and near-infrared therapy, understand cellular mechanisms of action, and gain practical insights into professional-grade laser therapy equipment and treatment protocols.
