Abstract: A phototherapy garment including a form-fitting bodysuit having a shell made from a stretchable, washable material covering the arms, legs, and torso which provides phototherapeutic light via a layer of cross-woven side-glow optical fibers. The bodysuit has an adjustable fastening system along the arms, legs, and torso to allow for variable sizing and a snug fit. Light is transmitted into the fibers via a waterproof base unit that is detachably attached to a housing dock on the side of the bodysuit. The LEDs emit high-intensity light of a wavelength or wavelengths suitable for treatment of various medical conditions. Each wavelength is transmitted separately into a respective one of a series of cross-woven optical fibers. Optionally, a reflective liner within the bodysuit may redirect irradiation from the fibers back toward the skin so no energy is wasted. Another embodiment includes a transparent liner. The base unit includes a power supply that may includes a rechargeable battery.
