Rheumatological disorders such as rheumatoid arthritis, osteoarthritis, lupus and scleroderma cause pain, swelling, and stiffness in patients. Low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or photobiomodulation (PBM) is well-known for its efficacy in managing arthritis symptoms. What are the best parameters for applying laser therapy to patients with rheumatological disorders to manage pain and deliver superior outcomes?
In this webinar, Drs. Christopher Carraway and Timothy Demchak will explore using photobiomodulation for managing autoimmune rheumatological diseases. They will discuss how laser therapy provides drug-free pain relief, reduces swelling around joints, and increases joint mobility to enhance quality of life in rheumatological disease patients.
Key Talking Points
- Review the research to understand how PBM functions in relieving pain, reducing inflammation, increasing range of motion and more in treating rheumatological disorder
- How to develop protocols and determine dosage for treating diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and osteoarthritis
- Real-world cases showing the application of PBM for managing common rheumatological disorders
