TLDR Light therapy can help heal soft tissue injuries and reduce pain and inflammation.
The article reviews non-invasive, drug-free biophysical therapeutic approaches for managing combat and traumatic soft tissue injuries, emphasizing the benefits and efficacy of photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT). PBMT, which uses dual/multi-wavelength light energy, is highlighted for its potential in promoting tissue repair, reducing pain, inflammation, and oxidative stress, and facilitating functional recovery. The review underscores the need for further research on combination therapies involving PBMT and pharmacological agents, optimal irradiation protocols, and other energy-based healing modalities to enhance clinical applications for combat and traumatic injuries.
