What is phototherapy?

Phototherapy is a medical field where patients are treated with

light illumination thus harnessing the biological effects of low-level

narrow-band (LLNB) light. Today, phototherapy is used worldwide

to treat ulcers, musculoskeletal injury, pain and inflammation.

Optics. Phototherapy initially involved soft lasers with output powers of less than 1 mW. Over the years technology has improved and powers have increased. Today treatments are performed with devices having output powers between 4-40 mW. Treatment times, however, have shortened, as powers have increased and the light exposure delivered to the treatment site are usually 1-4 J/cm2. The characteristics of light illumination; coherency and monochromaticity, have been examined in detail and it is clear that coherency is are not crucial because it degrades rapidly by scattering as

the beam passes through the tissue. Monochromaticity also is not crucial however, is vital as investigators have repeatedly shown that effects observed with narrow-band stimulation are absent with broad spectrum light. The optical "window" lies in visible to infra-red portion of the spectrum, extending from 600 nm to 1300 nm and including most of the products used in phototherapy. In particular, 660 nm have been widely used in wound healing while 940 is effective in pain relief.
