Low-Level Laser Therapy 

Benefits and How It Works 

Effects Of Low-Level Laser Therapy (LLLT) On Skin

"Stem cells can be activated allowing increased tissue repair and healing. In dermatology, LLLT has beneficial effects on wrinkles, acne scars, hypertrophic scars, and healing of burns. LLLT can reduce UV damage both as a treatment and as a prophylaxis." Avci, et al (2013).

What Is LLLT?

In layman's terms it helps the horse's body do better by increasing the amount of energy that is available to the cells. 

Endorphin Release 

LLLT can release endorphins in the body; this can help with relaxation and pain management. 

Effects Of LLLT on Chronic Back Pain

LLLT can help horses with back pain; this can be seen in any horse and can improve kissing spine, alongside manual therapy. 

Effects Of LLLT On Tendons 

LLLT increases the blood flow to the treatment area. This decreases harmful inflammation to the horse's tendon and will increase the capacity of regenerative cells. 

Maintaining Performance 

"Laser therapy can be an important tool in maintaining performance" in any horse. whether it is a competition horse or a leisure horse.
