How Infrared Light Helps to Heal Your Horse Quickly

Each type of tissue and cell structure in the body has a different ability to absorb wavelengths of light.  Skin, because it is filled with fluids like water and blood, absorbs light very readily, while the dense areas of the body, such as bone, need a different wavelength of light.  Health function is magnified when specific pulsing wavelengths of light are introduced to an area that has undergone an injury.  Even the formation of new capillaries to speed oxygen and nutrients to the damaged site. 

Because metabolism is increased and waste from damaged cells is removed quickly, the light source does not have to be applied for a great length of time.  Oxygen and nutrients are rushed to the site of the damaged tissue and a torrent of biochemical responses occur.  Fibroblastic activity is activated to promote the healing of connective tissue and thus collagen fibers are created.

So if your busy schedule makes taking care of an injury on your equine friend an after hours chore, try Infrared Light Therapy and get the results you need lightning fast.
