How does light therapy work?
Light Therapy
Cell
Mitochondria
Increase in cellular energy (ATP)
Increase Nitric Oxide (NO)
Decrease in reactive oxygen species (ROS)
Mechanism of Action
Stimulates cellular mitochondria
Light therapy energises cellular mitochondria, boosting the production of ATP for cellular growth, repair, and healthy activities.
Powerful anti-inflammatory
Light therapy activates important cellular signals (cAMP) that regulate healing and activate anti-inflammatory cells and processes.
Powerful antioxidant
Light therapy releases ROS, reducing oxidative stress and enhancing cellular repair abilities.
Improves circulation
Light therapy increases nitric oxide (NO) levels, widening blood vessels and promoting localised blood flow.
Reduces pain
Light therapy reduces pain by modulating pain-afferent fibres and reducing pro-inflammatory mediators in both the peripheral and central nervous system.

FAQs
SYMBYX lasers are ARTG/CE-listed for the reduction of pain and inflammation, the promotion of tissue repair and reduction of Parkinson’s and Fibromyalgia symptoms.
Infrared light is generally considered anything over 800 nm, while red light is generally considered anything below that. Both have their clinical applications, depending on the intended effect. For example, red light is more effective for superficial injuries and wound healing, while infrared light is more effective for any structure requiring deeper penetration. Our ProSeries laser comes with both red and infrared light handsets.

Class 3B and Class 4 lasers are distinguished by power levels. Both are powerful enough to be effective at a cellular level. Class 3B lasers can be safely owned and operated with as little as ensuring safety glasses are worn. Class 4 lasers pose additional risks to skin, tissue and the eyes. Hence why Class 4 lasers tend to be reserved for surgical use, where tissue destruction is intended. The majority of photobiomodulation research for treatment of neurological, metabolic, inflammatory and musculoskeletal conditions has been done using Class 3B lasers. All SYMBYX lasers are Class 3B lasers, given the specificity of the tissues and disorders that SYMBYX lasers are clinically proven to be able to treat.
A treatment session can last anywhere from 15 seconds up to 20 minutes, depending on the specific injury and type of treatment you are administering. During your training with our SYMBYX devices, you will receive training in a range of different laser light therapy techniques, including pain relief techniques, approaches to tendinopathies, active laser techniques, and approaches to non-motor symptoms, as well as other neurological, metabolic and inflammatory conditions.
