Whole body Photobiomodulation for fibromyalgia and other pain syndromes, James Carroll at Float Conference
Seven and a half million Americans suffer from an “incurable” pain called Fibromyalgia (FM). FM is a widespread hypersensitive chronic muscle pain; patients also experience chronic fatigue and sleeping problems.
Photobiomodulation (PBM) is the medical application of light and has been clinically proven to reduce inflammation and pain wherever the beam is applied.
The following study, presented at the British Pain Society in June 2022, showed that whole body Photobiomodulation substantially relieved pain and other symptoms of fibromyalgia. Forty-two fibromyalgia patients participated in the triple-blind, placebo-controlled clinical trial and were randomized to receive a NovoTHOR treatment (or a placebo NovoTHOR treatment) for 20 minutes, three times a week, for four weeks.
At the end of the study, there was a statistically significant reduction in pain and a statistically significant improvement in Quality of Life in the active NovoTHOR group. Psychological factors (kinesiophobia, self-efficacy) also improved. The authors concluded that NovoTHOR whole-body PBM is a safe, effective, drug-free treatment for fibromyalgia.

James Carroll received the T.H. Maiman Award for outstanding research during the Academy for Laser Dentistry award ceremony
James Carroll, CEO of THOR Photomedicine, a speaker at the 2019 CSSP Spring Leadership Workshop, received the T.H. Maiman Award for outstanding research during the Academy for Laser Dentistry’s (ALD) award ceremony at their annual conference (April 8-10), during which Red Light Therapy’s role in revolutionizing medical care was showcased. Kathleen Maiman, widow of Laser inventor Theodore Maiman, presented the award.
Carroll, a Fellow of the Royal Society of Medicine, is considered the world’s leading proponent of using Red Light Therapy, also known as Photobiomodulation (PBM). He has written or co-authored twenty-four academic papers and co-authored four books on the subject.
Carroll is working with 36 medical institutions, including Harvard Medical School, St. Jude Children’s Hospital, Veterans’ Hospitals, and the UK National Health Service (NHS), on using PBM for treating a range of conditions such as traumatic brain injury, the side effects of cancer treatments, managing acute and chronic pain, and reducing opioid use.
“My lifelong goal is having PBM accepted as a first-line medical treatment. I look forward to continuing this quest with all of you as we make PBM a global standard of care.” stated Carroll upon accepting the award.
PBM devices are cleared by the Food & Drug Administration. PBM’s success as a breakthrough medical technology is documented in 700 Clinical Trials and over 100 million patient treatments.
