Photonic Therapy (red & infrared wavelengths)
How does it work: The lights must be specific wavelengths and applied correctly. They are absorbed by a photo acceptor, cytochrome c oxidase within the mitochondria of the cell. The energy (photons) from the light wave (both visible and invisible) increases the energy within the cells which speeds up the healing process. Combining both red and infrared waves is beneficial because the wavelengths are absorbed by different depths of tissue, research has shown that this combination dramatically increases the rate of healing.
This is done by:
• Stimulating acupuncture points
• Releasing trigger points
• Treating wounds and infections
• Healing soft tissue injuries
• Relieving joint and muscle pain
This science has been used for years in medspas, chiropractic offices and veterinarian offices because it creates collagen, rejuvenates, and heals.
When your horse is on a regular bodywork schedule the chance of overuse and stress related injuries is lower. Think of your own body and how bodywork has assisted you in optimizing your performance.
We love to combine these therapies for optimal results. There are times when using them individually is necessary. We would be happy to discuss your goals and concerns and start your equine partner on a path to continued happiness and wellness.
