Laser Therapy (PBM)
Laser Therapy (Photobiomodulation) — Auckland
Leaton Performance and Rehabilitation offers Photobiomodulation (PBM) therapy — an evidence-based light therapy that uses specific wavelengths of red and near-infrared light to accelerate tissue repair, reduce inflammation, and relieve pain.
What does the research say?
PBM is one of the better-researched physical therapy modalities, with over 700 randomised clinical trials published. At LPR, we apply it based on current evidence, using appropriate intensity and treatment times for your specific condition.
Conditions we treat with PBM
- Sports injuries and muscle strains
- Arthritic joints
- Back and neck pain
- Neuropathic pain syndromes
- Post-surgical tissue healing
- Chronic pain conditions
How it works
Red and near-infrared light penetrates tissue and triggers photochemical reactions that reduce oxidative stress, increase ATP production, and improve cell metabolism. The result is faster healing and reduced inflammation — without heat, discomfort, or downtime.
PBM is typically used alongside physiotherapy and rehabilitation exercise as part of a comprehensive treatment plan.
