Fibromyalgia syndrome is a chronic pain condition involving altered nociceptive processing, which requires multidisciplinary management. Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) has recently emerged as promising non-pharmacological approach, but its clinical effectiveness and optimal application methods remain unclear. This systematic review evaluated the efficacy of PBMT in managing symptoms, including pain, physical function, sleep quality, overall well-being, while comparing localized whole-body delivery. A was conducted accordance with PRISMA guidelines previously registered on PROSPERO (CRD42024626368). Literature searches were performed across MEDLINE ((PubMed)), PEDro, SPORTDiscus, Scopus, Elsevier (ScienceDirect), Web Science (WOS), identifying 17 eligible studies (n = 857 participants). applied via low-level laser, infrared, or LED-based devices, delivered either locally to whole body. The methodological quality assessed using PEDro scale, risk bias RoB 2.0 tool. showed significant benefits, reduced intensity, improved decreased fatigue, enhanced life. Whole-body greater more sustained effects than applications, likely due systemic modulation pathways autonomic regulation. Improvements also observed terms psychological kinesiophobia. In conclusion, appears be an effective therapeutic option for syndrome, applications offering superior benefits. However, variability treatment parameters study methodologies underscores need standardized protocols high-quality trials support integration into management strategies.
