Introduction: Spinal cord injury (LM) is a tragic event that can profoundly affect a patient's life, with physical, psychological, social and environmental implications. Causing the loss of functional independence and reduced expectation and quality of life. The objective of this study was to evaluate if the photobiomodulation is able to influence the treatment of LM, promoting greater functionality and directly reflecting the quality of life of these individuals. Methods: The sample consisted of 25 patients. They were divided into two groups (Control and Photobiomodulation). The control group received physiotherapeutic treatment plus placebo photobiomodulation and the Photobiomodulation group received physiotherapeutic treatment and 12 sessions of low power laser therapy three times a week. All subjects completed the Life Quality Questionnaire (WHOQOL-bref) and the Functional Independence Measure (MIF) scale before, immediately after and 30 days after photobiomodulation. The data were analyzed statistically accepting a p <0.05 and the Shapiro-Wilk test was used for data normality. For the non-parametric variables, the following tests were used: Friedman and Mann-Whitney and for anova parametric variables for repeated measurements and Pearson correlation. Results: There were no statistically significant differences between the groups Photobiomodulation and control, in any of the domains and periods evaluated in the MIF. In the comparison between the groups, statistically significant results were observed in the psychological (0.001), Social (0.001) and General Quality of Life (0.001) domains. Statistically significant results were observed in the correlation between Physical domain and Perception of Quality of life (0.018 and 0.001, respectively) in the periods before and after 30 days of photobiomodulation. Conclusion: It was concluded that FBM was able to promote a significant influence in the social and psychological domains of individuals with LM, representing a good perception in the general quality of life of this population, but did not promote an influence on the functional independence of individuals with LM.
