In this webinar, Dr. Andrea Looney reviews the latest advancements in science and literature regarding this increasingly popular treatment. She covers everything from what photobiomodulation (PBM) is to how it has been traditionally applied before covering up-to-date uses.

Our knowledge of PBM is growing every day as new research reveals even more ways to reduce pain and inflammation and accelerate healing associated with acute and chronic conditions using this versatile, non-invasive modality. Superior outcomes are easily achieved for a wide variety of conditions when a sufficient dose of light energy reaches the target tissue and improves clinical outcomes, making the return on investment for a therapy laser better than any other piece of capital equipment in veterinary practice.

Key Learning Objectives

  • How PBM works and what makes it ideal for use in veterinary medicine
  • Evidence for the use of PBM in musculoskeletal conditions in canine, feline, and other inflammatory conditions
  • New studies on inflammation management and pain paths
  • New human and animal PBM research
  • Most recent veterinary PBM publications
  • What influences PBM within individuals
  •
