Whether your horse is shod or barefoot, their lower limbs and hoof structures experience load with every step. The fetlock, pastern, and hoof are constantly supporting weight and absorbing forces during movement, making them important areas to support, especially in horses that are:
With an irradiance of 120 mW/cm², this boot delivers both red and near-infrared wavelengths to support circulation, cellular energy production, and normal tissue recovery.
Red light (650 nm) is often used for surface-level applications and may support circulation and normal inflammatory responses. Near-infrared light (860 nm) penetrates deeper into tissues and is used to support areas including fascia, tendons, ligaments, joints, and other deeper structures.
Healthy circulation is an important part of tissue function and repair. Supporting blood flow and cellular activity can be beneficial for horses recovering from everyday training stress, soreness, swelling, and soft tissue concerns.
Light therapy may be used as a supportive tool alongside your veterinarian's recommended care plan to assist healing of acute injuries and long term conditions of the hooves and lower limb.
