“…32,33 PBMT has been used to treat respiratory disorders such as pneumonia, asthma or COPD in children, adults, and elderly patients. [34][35][36][37][38][39] Clinical studies of more than 1000 patients show positive effects of PBMT on pulmonary conditions, including shortened recovery times, decreased need for medications, reduced respiratory symptoms, and improved parameters in radiological, immunological and blood indicators. [34][35][36][37][38][39] Recent publications and systematic reviews provide the theory and potential mechanism of action of PBMT in fighting COVID-19.…”

“…NIR Laser light at a power of 1 W/cm 2 projected through bovine tissue ranging in thickness from 1.8 to 9.5 cm resulted in effective power densities at 3.4 cm and 6.0 cm [ 21 ]. In veterinary practice, feline and canine pneumonia is frequently treated with laser doses of 6–10 J/cm 2 [ 22 ]. These animals have a thicker chest wall and furry skin, making penetration more challenging than in humans.…”

“…• LLLT is approved by the US FDA and Health Canada for several chronic and degenerative conditions, temporary pain relief, cellulite treatment, body contouring, lymphedema reduction, and hair growth. It has been used in veterinary medicine for upper and lower respiratory conditions in dogs and cats [13]. • It has been used for human respiratory tract disease.…”
