At Unity Move Physical Therapy & Wellness, we blend evidence-informed care with practical technology. Kineon MOVE photobiomodulation is a portable, clinically used light-therapy device that may help support recovery when paired with the right movement plan.
What we’re using it for (common goals):
-
Pain reduction and symptom modulation
-
Post-workout recovery and overuse irritation
-
Tendon and soft tissue healing support
-
Joint irritation (knee, shoulder, ankle) support
-
Helping you tolerate strengthening and return-to-activity progressions
What is photobiomodulation
What is PBM (photobiomodulation)?
PBM uses specific wavelengths of light delivered to tissues. In many clinical and sports settings, PBM is used to support recovery by influencing cellular energy processes and local inflammation pathways.
What you might notice:
-
Less “reactivity” (pain sensitivity)
-
Improved tolerance for exercise and daily activities
-
A calmer baseline so we can train more consistently
What a session looks like at Unity Move
PBM at Unity Move is not a standalone “gadget visit.”
We use it as a strategic add-on to the right plan.
Typical visit options
-
PT + PBM Add-On (most common)
We use PBM to downshift symptoms, then immediately train strength, mobility, and control. -
Recovery Session (PBM-only)
For clients who are already on a program and want a structured recovery session.
Timing: typically 10–20 minutes of PBM depending on region and goal.

FAQ
Is PBM the same as “red light therapy”?
It’s related. PBM is the clinical term and typically refers to targeted wavelengths and dosing used for therapeutic intent.
How many sessions do people need?
Many clients try a short series (e.g., 4–8 sessions) while we progress their rehab plan. The goal is not “forever treatment”—it’s improved capacity.
Will it replace PT?
No. The best outcomes usually come from pairing symptom modulation with progressive movement therapy.
Is it painful?
No. Most people feel nothing or mild warmth.
