Intervention group with the IV and V LED board
Time of Applications will for 20 minutes on each extremity (foot soles), until the last day of chemotherapy treatment. The sequential LED treatments will be administered by the Sportllux Ultra model (Cosmedical) in a predefined cycle, with the combination of light emitters in two wavelengths: 42 red (660nm) and 42 infrared (850nm); LED blanket in the size of 10x12 cm; average power of each LED: 5mW; operating mode: continuous; polarization: random; irradiance at the opening of each LED: 25mW/cm2; opening diameter of each LED: 10mm; application time: 1 session of 20 minutes; power per LED: 30mW; radiant exposure: 36J/cm2 during 20 minutes of application. Tissue from the lower limb extremities will come into contact with the LED panel during treatment to ensure even delivery of photobiomodulation. The panels are large enough to more than cover the entire edge area at one time during application.
Intervention group with the IV and V LED board
Applications of the LED board will be performed daily for 20 minutes on each extremity (foot soles), until the last day of chemotherapy treatment. The sequential LED treatments will be administered by the Sportllux Ultra model (Cosmedical) in a predefined cycle, with the combination of light emitters in two wavelengths: 42 red (660nm) and 42 infrared (850nm); LED blanket in the size of 10x12 cm; average power of each LED: 5mW; operating mode: continuous; polarization: random; irradiance at the opening of each LED: 25mW/cm2; opening diameter of each LED: 10mm; application time: 1 session of 20 minutes; power per LED: 30mW; radiant exposure: 36J/cm2 during 20 minutes of application. Tissue from the lower limb extremities will come into contact with the LED panel during treatment to ensure even delivery of photobiomodulation. The panels are large enough to more than cover the entire edge area at one time during application.
Intervention group with the IV, V and Violet LED board
Time of Applications will be for 20 minutes on each extremity (foot soles), until the last day of chemotherapy treatment. The sequential LED treatments will be administered by the Sportllux Ultra model (Cosmedical) in a predefined cycle, with the combination of light emitters in three wavelengths: 18 red (660nm), 18 infrared (850nm) and 36 violet (420nm). ); LED blanket in the size of 10x12 cm; average power of each LED: 5mW; operating mode: continuous; polarization: random; irradiance at the opening of each LED: 25mW/cm2; opening diameter of each LED: 10mm; application time: 1 session of 20 minutes; power per LED: 30mW; radiant exposure: 36J/cm2 during 20 minutes of application.

Tissue from the lower limb extremities will come into contact with the LED panel during treatment to ensure even delivery of photobiomodulation. The panels are large enough to more than cover the entire edge area at one time during application.
Control group with LED board without emitting light
Applications of the LED board will be performed daily for 20 minutes on each extremity (foot soles), until the last day of chemotherapy treatment. The sequential LED treatments will be administered by the Sportllux Ultra (Cosmedical) model without the light emitting combination. LED blanket in the size of 10x12 cm and application time: 1 session of 20 minutes. Tissue from the lower limb extremities will come into contact with the LED panel during treatment to ensure even delivery of photobiomodulation. The panels are large enough to more than cover the entire edge area at one time during application. Women will receive a booklet with guidelines for the correct use of the LED board and will be instructed to continue their usual physical activities and mark the daily frequency of application of the LED board
