What Type Of PBM Therapy Is Best For Your Pains?

Whole Body PBM Therapy For Pain And Inflammation
What Aches/Pains Can Benefit From PBM Therapy ?
The list is from head to toe really. How can PBM Therapy treat aches and pains in all these locations? Simply all the cells in our tissues have the same Mitochondria. PBM Therapy using the NovoTHOR or LX2 specifically treats you by targeting the electron transfer chain in our Mitochondria so it does not matter what the tissue name is – bone, muscle, tendon, ligament, nerve, cartilage and joints – PBM Therapy can benefit them all at the cellular level.
As examples of the types of aches and pains the NovoTHOR and the THOR LX2 could help with are: spinal pains e.g. neck, mid back, low back and pelvis, shoulders, elbows, wrists, hands, fingers and thumb joints, hip, knee, ankle, foot, and toe joints, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and nerves around the whole body. The response to PBM Therapy can vary from person to person depending on lots of factors such as:
- Age
- Muscle bulk/fitness
- Pre-existing damage/arthritis severity
- Time of the condition
- Coexisting medical conditions
For this reason when you come for the initial consultation we will advise you considering the best scientific data and our years working in the musculoskeletal health care field how likely PBM Therapy will be to help you. Shorter lived, less severe pains are more likely to be cured or stay better for long periods of time. In many chronic, longstanding cases due to some of the factors listed above (+ others) the PBM Therapy may be something that you will require on an ongoing, but less frequent basis than the initial course – why? Simply to maintain the improvements you have had. Of course if you are one of the few patients who don’t feel a benefit after a reasonable period of trying we will tell you to stop.
