The following terms are accepted as alternatives of low level light therapy term: LLLT, laser biostimulation, laser phototherapy, low-level laser therapy, low-power laser irradiation, low-power laser therapy, and photobiomodulation therapy. The term photobiomodulation therapy is considered the preferred term by industry professionals.
By this regard, some of the PEMF devices such as MDcure, Aerotel Ltd., (Holon, Israel) and Aerotel Inc. (USA, New York, NY, USA) are categorized as FDA Class-1 therapeutic device since they deliver extremely low-intensity electromagnetic field with nanoTesla amplitude (nT; 10 −9) at a set of low frequencies (1–100 Hz).
Kinetic Concepts, Inc., (KCI) is a global corporation that produces medical technology related to wounds and wound healing.KCI produced the first product developed specifically for negative pressure wound therapy.
Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy (PEMFT, or PEMF therapy), also known as low field magnetic stimulation (LFMS) is the use of electromagnetic fields in an attempt to heal non-union fractures and depression. [1] By 2007 the FDA had cleared several such stimulation devices. [2]
A microcurrent electrical neuromuscular stimulator or MENS (also microamperage electrical neuromuscular stimulator) is a device used to send weak electrical signals into the body. Such devices apply extremely small microamp [uA] electrical currents (less than 1 milliampere [mA]) to the tissues using electrodes placed on the skin.
Albert Abrams (1863–1924), Photo c. 1900 Radionic instruments. Radionics [1] —also called electromagnetic therapy (EMT) and the Abrams method—is a form of alternative medicine that claims that disease can be diagnosed and treated by applying electromagnetic radiation (EMR), such as radio waves, to the body from an electrically powered device.

The device consists of a small linear accelerator attached to a robotic arm, along with an integrated image guidance system. During treatment, the image guidance system captures 3D images , tracks the movement of tumors , and guides the robotic arm to accurately aim the treatment beam at the moving tumor.
Rehabilitation robotics is a field of research dedicated to understanding and augmenting rehabilitation through the application of robotic devices. Rehabilitation robotics includes development of robotic devices tailored for assisting different sensorimotor functions [1] (e.g. arm, hand, [2] [3] leg, ankle [4]), development of different schemes of assisting therapeutic training, [5] and ...
