An Introduction to Light Therapy
Light therapy for horses, canines, or any animal are popular among pet lovers and vets to help keep their animals in top health. Due to physical activity and accidents (or perhaps recklessness), the body, muscles and skin of animals can be put through enormous strain on a daily basis. Also, animals have a much shorter lifespan and physical prime years when compared to humans. Therefore, finding a safe and efficient method to help the animal’s body heal itself can go very far in helping to keep them in tiptop shape or alleviate the effects and chance for long term injuries.
Sometimes referred to as red light therapy for horses, the red light effectively helps stimulate the natural healing process in the horse’s body. In infrared light therapy for horses, the light effectively penetrates and is absorbed by different levels of tissue in the horse’s body. This provides a consistent, safe and effective method to alleviate issues such as muscle or ligament inflammation, sores, sprains or swellings, and even skin cuts. It is not had to see benefits of this technology for racehorse or stable owners and trainers, or even professional vets.
