Photobiomodulation (PBM)
Photobiomodulation (PBM) is a light-based technology that may be used as part of an individualised care plan where considered clinically appropriate.
At Brainshape, the decision to include PBM is based on the individual's health history, current presentation, assessment findings and practitioner judgement. PBM may be used alongside other assessment findings and care approaches where appropriate.
The practitioner will explain the purpose of PBM, what the session involves and whether it is suitable for the individual before care begins.

How Photobiomodulation May Be Used
Photobiomodulation is one of several technologies that may be considered as part of an individual care plan.
Where clinically appropriate, PBM may be used alongside other assessment findings and care approaches following an individual consultation.
Brainshape uses PBM devices in accordance with the practitioner's clinical judgement, the individual's presentation and the intended purpose of care.
Before recommending PBM, the practitioner will explain:
What the technology involves
Why it is being considered
How it may form part of an individual care plan
Any relevant considerations or limitations
The inclusion of PBM does not mean it is suitable or required for every individual.
PBM may be considered as part of an individual care plan where appropriate following assessment.
Examples may include discussion of concerns relating to:
-
Movement & Coordination
-
Participation in everyday activities
-
Existing health concerns
-
Sensory experiences
-
Other individual clinical presentations
