Photobiomodulation Therapy in Sarasota, FL
What Is Red-Light Therapy AKA Photobiomodulation-PBM?
Red light therapy, sometimes referred to as photobiomodulation therapy (PBM), is a non-invasive procedure that uses red light wavelengths to improve cellular function, lessen inflammation, and encourage healing. Red light is absorbed through the skin by your mitochondria, which are the parts of cells that produce energy. Because it targets cellular functions, it is becoming more and more popular in both medical and wellness settings.
Benefits Of Photobiomodulation Therapy
By increasing cellular energy production and reducing oxidative stress, photobiomodulation laser therapy (PBM), enhances immune function, supports anti-aging, and contributes to overall wellness and longevity. This versatile, non-invasive therapy is used for medical and cosmetic purposes, and to achieve better wellness. Other photobiomodulation therapy benefits include repairing wounds and reducing pain and inflammation. PBM boosts collagen production and treats skin conditions like acne and eczema, while also reducing wrinkles and promoting hair growth. When you have red light therapy, the benefits also include muscle recovery, reduction of fatigue, and relief from chronic disease symptoms for conditions like fibromyalgia and neuropathic pain. PBM also accelerates recovery from injuries.
What Can I Expect During Photobiomodulation Laser Therapy?
A device that emits red or near-infrared light is applied to the skin over the treatment region for five to thirty minutes during PBM laser therapy. Because the light penetrates tissues to promote cellular regeneration and healing, the procedure is painless, non-invasive, and involves little to no sensation. You can resume your normal activities after photobiomodulation red light therapy.

What Our Clients Are Saying
“Dr. Davis is great!
He is interested in solving the root cause of my issues, not just prescribing drugs and sending me on my way.
He always spends over an hour with me going over every aspect of my health.
Such a contrast to my last cardiologist that never spent more than 15 minutes with me, prescribing drugs that negatively affected me, never looking for the cause of my problems, and only doing what the insurance company would pay for.”
Norma Rosenberg
“I recently took my family member to see Dr. Davis due to the research that I have doing on heart disease on the internet. Dr. Davis went beyond all my expectations! It is very difficult to find a integrative functional medicine cardiologist who also knows the conventional approach as Dr. Davis. He was very compassionate and did not make you feel like he was in a hurry. He listened very intently to everything we had to say. He definitely is not your conventional cardiologist that has a revolving door of prescribing statins to their patients. The best thing about Dr. Davis was his holistic approach to heart issues. He considers in all the different contingencies involved in heart disease. I highly recommend him to anyone who really wants to get to the root cause of their heart disease. His staff was also amazing!”

“Dr. Cris Davis was previously a top rated cardiovascular surgeon. He now brings that skill base into his current wellness practice which is especially important to me as a patient of his with cardiac disease. His practice is phenomenal and my health has improved significantly! I’ve experienced a tremendous decrease in my weight as well. He’s a genius at this and all I can say is please don’t hesitate to make an investment in yourself towards longevity!”
Frank Griffith Jr.
“I’m an ex pharmacist based in Australia and came across Dr Chris Davis in a magazine publication.I was looking for a cardiologist who could help my dad in London with a more holistic approach to minimise the number of medications but maximise his health through exercise, healthy lifestyle and any preventive actions he could take. My dad also had a lot heavy legs and hip pain. He had been to multiple different hospital appointments in London with no real positive outcomes. He was low on energy and at 77 starting to think he is getting old! Dr Chris made recommendations to my dads general practitioner and offered specific healthcare advice. 3 months later my dad has lots of energy, is walking 10 times the
distance he could walk before and is virtually pain free. Seeing my dad happy and like a little kid again is priceless. Thank you so much.”
Hament Chavda
“In February I decided to seek out a functional doctor for numerous issues I have had, from thyroid issues, to sleep issues, anxiety, HRT, to just name a few. From day one the office staff was super helpful in gathering all of my medical records. My first visit with Dr. Davis lasted close to two hours. He listened, discussed, reviewed and ordered labs to gather details that my previous doctors had not looked at. Upon completion of my labs, we had another two hour visit to complete an action plan/next steps. The changes he made and the supplements he prescribed have already started working and I am feeling so much better. Dr. Davis is caring, thorough, and attentive to my health care needs. The office staff is also outstanding.”
Kelly Dancer
“I believe it’s essential for every patient to have a doctor like Dr. Davis when it comes to their wellness journey- whichever path that may be! He truly is a whole different breed in the best way possible. What he has created and is continuing to expand in his clinic is the future of medicine. His knowledge is unmatchable. He’s driven and motivated to find the root cause, not just suppress your symptoms which is key! I cannot say enough good things about him and his staff! They are always personable and very on top of things. If you’re looking for the gold standard of a doctor, staff, testing, diagnosing, an individualized treatment plan, etc. Look no further, you just found it! I feel blessed to have found a doctor that I truly trust and will continue to be a loyal client of his for many years to come!”

Sarasota Photobiomodulation Therapy FAQs
Is Cold Laser Therapy Legitimate?
Cold laser therapy, sometimes referred to as low-level laser therapy (LLLT) or photobiomodulation, is a valid, FDA-approved, and scientifically backed treatment. It's beneficial for fibromyalgia, arthritis, back pain, and wound healing because it lowers pain and inflammation and encourages tissue repair. It can potentially treat severe brain injuries. Cold laser therapy is a non-invasive treatment that provides trustworthy, effective results.
How Much Is Photobiomodulation Therapy?
The total cost of photobiomodulation therapy in Sarasota will vary based on each session’s length. After Dr. Davis prescribes your treatment, our team at Reveal Vitality regenerative therapy center can determine what your cost will be.
Is Photobiomodulation The Same As Red Light Therapy?
Photobiomodulation and red light therapy refer to the same concept, but PBM is a more scientific term. Both involve using wavelengths of red or near-infrared light, to stimulate cellular repair, and promote healing.
How Long Does It Take For Photobiomodulation To Work?
The severity of the problem, the disease being treated, and each patient's response all affect how long photobiomodulation light therapy takes to start showing results. While some people might need many weeks of regular treatment, others see benefits after just a few sessions.
- Acute Conditions: After one to three sessions, pain or inflammation from acute injuries may subside.
- Chronic Conditions: After 6 to 12 sessions, improvements appear for chronic conditions like fibromyalgia or arthritis.
- Skin and Hair Treatments: It may take a few weeks to months of consistent sessions to see noticeable improvements in skin texture, collagen production, or hair development.
- Neurological Conditions: Consistent therapy for a few weeks may be necessary to heal from brain injuries or achieve cognitive gains.
The majority of therapy regimens consist of two to three weekly sessions, and cumulative effects tend to produce better results over time.
How Many Sessions Do I Need?
Your treatment plan will likely include multiple sessions over several weeks for the best results. Improvements develop gradually. Dr. Christopher Davis will prescribe your therapy schedule specifically for your needs and condition.
Is Low-Level Therapy Safe?
Low-level laser therapy, also known as photobiomodulation or red light therapy, is considered safe when used appropriately. LLLT is FDA-cleared for specific applications like pain relief and hair restoration. Protective eyewear is recommended if the therapy involves treatment near the eyes. Pregnant women, people with a history of cancer, or who take photosensitive medications should consult a healthcare provider before getting treated. LLLT is a safe and effective therapy option with positive overall results.
Is The Laser FDA Approved?
Red light laser treatment, or PBM, has been cleared by the FDA for specific medical and therapeutic use. FDA clearance ensures the devices meet safety standards. It's FDA-approved for pain management, hair restoration, wound healing, skin treatments, and some oral conditions.
