MedWave Narrow Light Therapy (PBM)
& Whole Body Vibration (WBV)
At Star Breather Therapy in Middelburg, Mpumalanga, we integrate two leading-edge wellness technologies — MedWave Narrow Light Therapy (PBM, 635 nm red light) and Whole-Body Vibration (WBV) — to help restore your body’s natural healing rhythm.
Together, they enhance circulation, energy metabolism, cellular repair, and lymphatic detoxification — safely and non-invasively.
The MedWave Whole Body Metabolic Vibration Plate uses rapid, controlled oscillations to stimulate muscle fibres at a high frequency.
As your body instinctively stabilises itself, deep postural and core muscles engage — improving tone, balance, and circulation.
Science-backed benefits of WBV:
Muscle activation & strength: Research shows WBV increases muscle fibre recruitment and improves strength and power in various age groups.¹
Metabolic support: Stimulates circulation and oxygenation, enhancing the body’s natural detox and fat-metabolism processes.
Bone health: Clinical reviews confirm WBV supports bone mineral density, particularly in post-menopausal women.²
Balance & flexibility: Enhances neuromuscular coordination and proprioception, helping with posture and joint stability.
Lymphatic drainage: Improves lymph flow, aiding toxin elimination and reducing water retention or cellulite appearance.
Regular use supports whole-body wellness and complements exercise, recovery, and weight-management programs.
After the WBV session stimulates circulation and fat release, MedWave Narrow Light Therapy completes the cycle by activating your body’s cellular energy systems.
This low-level red light (635 nm) and near-infrared technology gently penetrates the skin to stimulate mitochondria, increasing adenosine triphosphate (ATP) — the energy currency of your cells.
Research-supported actions of PBM:
Cellular regeneration: PBM has been shown to improve mitochondrial function and tissue repair across multiple studies.³
Pain and inflammation relief: Red and near-infrared wavelengths help reduce chronic inflammation, oxidative stress, and muscle soreness.⁴
Metabolic activation: Supports conversion of released fatty acids into usable energy.
Circulatory boost: Encourages new capillary formation, improving oxygen and nutrient delivery to tissues.
Skin and tissue renewal: Stimulates collagen and elastin production, improving tone, texture, and healing time.
Clinical data indicate PBM can support 25–40% faster wound recovery, 30–50% reduction in joint or muscle pain, and visible skin improvements within 6–8 sessions.
When used sequentially, the two therapies create a dynamic cascade of benefits:
Stimulation: WBV triggers muscle contractions and initiates fat breakdown (lipolysis).
Mobilisation: Circulation increases, moving fatty acids and metabolic waste into the bloodstream.
Metabolism: NLT activates mitochondria to convert those fats into clean cellular energy.
Elimination: The lymphatic system flushes toxins, while PBM soothes inflammation and repairs tissue.
This safe, non-invasive combination enhances fat metabolism, detoxification, energy, and recovery — while promoting strength, balance, and emotional vitality.
Studies and clinical experience suggest potential benefits such as:
25–40 % faster soft-tissue and wound healing
30–50 % reduction in arthritis or chronic pain
10–15 % improved insulin sensitivity and circulation
50–70 % repigmentation improvement in vitiligo (reported in PBM literature)
20–30 % better lymphatic flow and reduced swelling
Enhanced mitochondrial resilience and ATP production (cellular energy increase)
These results are dependent on consistency, overall health, and individual response.
Both therapies are non-invasive, drug-free, and safe for most people when used under trained supervision.
Sessions are personalised to your health profile and comfort level.
Contraindications (with doctor clearance required in some cases):

Our Approach
Star Breather Therapy takes a holistic, functional approach — combining science, spiritual grounding, and client-centred care.
Our MedWave systems are used in alignment with functional wellness, not as a substitute for medical treatment.
We are not registered with a medical aid, but can collaborate with local nurses or physiotherapists for documentation support if required.
Your body already knows how to heal — we simply remind it.
Experience the restorative synergy of MedWave Narrow Light Therapy and Whole Body Vibration to awaken your energy, improve recovery, and reconnect to your body’s natural intelligence.
