What Is CareWear ?
Sometimes your body needs more than exercise alone to support recovery. That’s where CareWear Photobiomodulation Therapy may help.
Photobiomodulation, sometimes called low-level light therapy, uses specific wavelengths of light to support normal cellular function and promote the body’s natural healing processes. At Kriz Physical Therapy, we use CareWear, a wearable light therapy system, as part of a comprehensive treatment program when it’s appropriate for your condition.
This gentle, non-invasive therapy uses both red and blue light to help support tissue repair and recovery. Unlike treatments that simply mask symptoms, photobiomodulation works by encouraging normal cellular activity to help the body recover more efficiently.
How Does CareWear Work?
Every cell in your body requires energy to heal and function effectively. Photobiomodulation works by delivering specific wavelengths of light into the tissues, where they help stimulate normal cellular processes.
The treatment works by:
- Supporting normal cellular energy production
- Increasing blood flow to injured tissues
- Stimulating the activity of the mitochondria, the "energy centers" of the cells
- Promoting the production of nitric oxide to encourage healthy circulation
- Supporting tissue repair and recovery
Think of CareWear as giving your cells an energy boost, helping them perform their natural healing processes more efficiently.
What Conditions Can CareWear Help Support?
CareWear may be incorporated into treatment plans for a variety of musculoskeletal conditions when clinically appropriate.
It may be recommended as part of rehabilitation for:
- Arthritis and joint discomfort
- Tendon injuries and tendinopathies
- Muscle strains
- Neck, shoulder, back, hip, or knee pain
- Recovery following surgery
- Recovery after exercise or sporting activities
For some individuals with arthritis, CareWear may help support comfort and mobility as part of a broader rehabilitation program. It can also be useful following activities such as golf, tennis, strength training, or other exercise to assist with muscle recovery.
Every recommendation is based on your evaluation, diagnosis, and individual goals.

During your care, CareWear may be used alongside other physical therapy treatments such as:
- Hands-on manual therapy

- Mobility training
- Functional movement retraining
- A personalized home exercise program
Because the device is wearable, there’s no need to sit still during treatment. You can continue many normal daily activities while receiving therapy.
