SV Equine Therapy LED Light Therapy has been helping horses stay stronger for competition and assist injured horses accelerate the healing process.

Red light therapy, also known as photobiomodulation or low-level laser therapy, is a therapeutic approach that utilizes specific wavelengths of light to target and benefit various health conditions in both humans and animals, including horses. In this technique, particular rays of light are harnessed and directed onto specific areas of the body for therapeutic purposes. 

LED light therapy is really a way to help the body heal itself. The lights have specific wavelengths that are absorbed by a photo acceptor, cytochrome c oxidase within the mitochondria of the cell. The energy (photons) from the lights increases the energy within the cell and that speeds up the healing process. The lights must be specific wavelengths and must be delivered at a specific dosage. Using both red and infrared lights is beneficial because the wavelengths are absorbed by different depths of tissue. The SV Equine Therapy LED Light Therapy Pads use two specific wavelengths (Red + Near Infrared LED 660nm/850nm) that research has shown to dramatically increase the rate of healing. The two wavelengths are in the visible red and near infrared spectrums. The visible red is effective for stimulating acupuncture points, releasing trigger points, treating wounds and infections. The infrared wavelength (not visible), which penetrates deeper, has been shown to be effective in helping heal soft tissue injuries, joints and muscles.

The SV Equine Light Therapy Pads have no loose hanging wires that can be easily pulled or ripped out by the horse which is especially important when using the pads on the hoofs or legs. These pads were designed to eliminate accidental ripping of the cords from the pads, despite other pads having a break-away cord. The batteries can also set the device to have different intensities and times.

 

SV Equestrian offers two types of products to suit your budget.

 

SV Lux Brand Features:


The timer can be set up to 30 mins, although we only recommend 15 max on 100% Intensity


The Intensity levels can be set to:

L1 – 25% Intensity                                             

L2 – 50% Intensity

L3 – 75% Intensity

L4 – 100% Intensity.

We do strongly recommend that you work your way up through the levels as the pads can get hot and the horses tend to feel it more on the legs, knees and hocks. If your horse seems irritable after a period, turn the device off and next time try at a lower lever for a shorter period of time until they accept it, remember EVERY HORSE IS DIFFERENT.

In competitive horses especially, leg and back injuries are common, and healing can be challenging and costly. Prolonged healing and forced rest can cause a ripple effect of physical and psychological problems for the horse that can delay or prevent a return to competition—and veterinary bills can easily run into the thousands of dollars.

Red light therapy with LED lights has been used to improve human health with great success. An increasing number of veterinarians (especially those with a holistic approach) and animal naturopaths are using red and near-infrared (NIR) light therapy on dogs and horses. 

Today, horse owners can administer red light therapy at home. Consistent application provides support for the body’s natural healing mechanisms, which in turn speeds up treatment of conditions such as:

  • Joint pain (from osteoarthritis, or overuse injury that has led to cartilage degradation),
  • Wounds,
  • Connective tissue injuries (sprains and strains of ligaments and tendons),
  • Muscle injuries (strains and tears),
  • Cartilage degradation (caused by osteoarthritis or overuse),
  • Muscle recovery from training,
  • Back pain,
  • Inflammation,
  • Neuropathy and neuropathic pain.

Most conditions that keep horses stuck in a stall, whether acute (sudden) or chronic (long-term), can be treated and potentially even prevented using regular treatments with red and NIR light therapy.

What Is Red Light and How Can It Help a Horse?

Red light therapy is also known as low-level light therapy (LLLT) or photobiomodulation. It encompasses visible red light, which ranges from 630 to 660 nanometers (nm); and NIR light, which is just outside the range of visible light for humans and ranges from 810nm to 850nm. 

Light wavelengths within these ranges are said to be within the “therapeutic window,” in which there are significant benefits without any adverse reactions or side effects.

Red light therapy is administered via light-emitting diode (LED) bulbs, which are placed at the shortest possible distance from one another on a panel to ensure the most even coverage. 

When you see the term “LED therapy,” be sure you understand which wavelengths it’s referring to. Some LED panels, for instance, emit blue and amber light as well as red/NIR. Blue light is very effective at treating some skin conditions, including acne. 

Only specific wavelengths (namely red/NIR) have shown therapeutic benefits for deep tissue and wound healing.

Since horses are large and have a relatively thick hide (along with a thick coat), the use of a near-infrared wavelength will be most effective in treating muscle, soft tissue, and joint conditions. That’s because these longer wavelengths have a much deeper absorption rate than shorter-wavelength visible red light.

Red wavelengths and NIR wavelengths penetrate the body's tissues to different depths; for skin-deep healing such as wounds, red wavelengths will stimulate healing. For deeper conditions such as muscle tears or joint pain, go with NIR wavelengths.

After penetrating the skin, red/NIR wavelengths stimulate the production of cellular energy within tiny organelles inside cells known as mitochondria. This sparks a variety of beneficial biological processes, as energized cells can perform their specialized functions faster and more efficiently. 

It is the job of the mitochondria to convert raw materials into fuel for cells. But certain conditions, such as inflammation, can interfere with mitochondrial functioning. 

This results in mitochondrial dysfunction, which has been shown to be a root cause of many chronic conditions that can interfere with healing and prevent your horse from enjoying optimal health. 

The primary effect of red and NIR wavelengths is to reverse and even prevent mitochondrial dysfunction. The ripple effect of energized cells includes faster healing, a stronger immune system, and reduced overall inflammation.

Red light therapy also increases the synthesis of collagen. We typically think of collagen in conjunction with skin health, but it is the most abundant protein in the body. Along with the skin, collagen is found in the bones, tendons, muscles, and ligaments. 

Boosting collagen production can help horses heal from injury by rebuilding damaged connective tissue; and if the horse has a skin wound, it will heal more cleanly, with less scarring.
