RED & NEAR INFRARED LIGHT THERAPY (PBMT)
​​​
Accelerate Tissue Repair at the Cellular Level​
​​
​
​

​​
​
Photobiomodulation (PBMT) stimulates mitochondrial ATP production, enhancing cellular repair and collagen synthesis.
​
Benefits may include:
-
Improved muscle strength
-
Enhanced tendon healing
-
Reduced inflammation markers
-
Faster recovery post-training
Integrated strategically alongside loading programs for tendon rehabilitation.
​​
Evidence
Systematic reviews show PBMT enhances muscle performance and recovery when correctly dosed (Ferraresi et al., 2015; Vanin et al., 2018).
