INFORMED CONSENT FOR PHOTOBIOMODULATION LIGHT THERAPY - LIABILITY WAIVER AND RELEASE
Photobiomodulation (PBM) light therapy is the process in which certain wavelengths of light are thought to trigger naturally occurring physiological processes in the body, cellular healing, and nitric oxide release as well as other positive physiological responses. Research studies show that PBM may help increase and support basic functions in nearly every part of the body including, but not limited to, increased circulation, stimulated stem cell production, increased lymphatic system activity, and decreased oxidative stress and inflammation. PBM light therapy is non-invasive, non-abrasive, and yields no reported nor demonstrated side effects.
