What is laser therapy for my horse?

Cold Laser Therapy has many beneficial uses for your horse

Photobiomodulation is the stimulation of light receptors in cells speeding up the body’s natural healing process.

Laser energy is absorbed in water, increases local circulation and subsequently draws oxygen and nutrients to the damaged area. This creates an optimal healing environment that reduces inflammation, swelling, muscle spasm, stiffness and pain. As the injured area is returned to normal, function is restored and pain is relieved.

The treatment is painless and provides a comforting warming sensation that is usually enjoyed by the animal.

When is laser therapy beneficial?

Pain management – this is a non-invasive therapy used instead of or as well as  drug therapy for the treatment of chronic pain. Osteoarthritis is one of the most common causes of chronic pain and we have great success managing this condition.

Wound healing – Laser therapy can significantly reduce healing time, while at the same time improving the quality of tissue ( more proliferation of normal cells, less tension and scar formation) traumatic skin injuries and surgical incisions benefit greatly from laser intervention. It also supports the immunity system by fighting any infection at the site.

Rehabilitation – bone and muscle injuries and orthopaedic surgeries often require additional rehabilitation solutions. Laser therapy provides a non-invasive treatment for quicker recovery.
