Photobiomodulation Therapy in Arthritis – Healing Beyond Pain Relief

Arthritis is one of the most common chronic conditions affecting joints, leading to inflammation, stiffness, and pain that limit mobility and quality of life.

At Durban Neuro Laser Clinic, we use Photobiomodulation Therapy (PBM) as an advanced, non-invasive solution to relieve pain, reduce inflammation, and support tissue repair.

What Is Photobiomodulation?

Photobiomodulation involves the use of specific wavelengths of light (typically red and near-infrared), non-invasively,  that penetrate deep into tissues. This light energy stimulates mitochondria, the cell’s powerhouse, increasing energy production and triggering anti-inflammatory and regenerative processes.

How PBM Helps in Arthritis

1. Reduces Inflammation: PBM decreases levels of pro-inflammatory cytokines while boosting anti-inflammatory responses, reducing swelling and stiffness in affected joints.

2. Stimulates Collagen and Cartilage Repair: The therapy encourages fibroblast activity and tissue regeneration, helping restore the joint’s structural integrity over time.

3. Improves Blood Circulation: Enhanced microcirculation allows for better oxygen delivery and waste removal, supporting long-term joint health.

4. Relieves Pain Naturally: PBM promotes endorphin release and modulates nerve activity, reducing pain perception without medication or side effects.

5. Enhances Mobility and Function: With regular sessions, patients experience increased range of motion, improved joint function, and reduced dependency on pain medications.

The Science Behind It

Clinical research shows that PBM can modulate oxidative stress, improve mitochondrial function, and slow down cartilage degradation. Over time, this leads to improved joint resilience and decreased progression of arthritis symptoms, making PBM a valuable adjunct to physiotherapy and medical treatment plans.
