The Hock Helper, designed and sold by Northeast EquiWellness, provides red light & near-infrared light therapy for the hock and joint structures, in the form of a convenient rechargeable wrap that may also be used on the knee.

The hocks and knees are high-load joints that play a major role in propulsion, collection, and everyday movement. Because of this, it's a common area for:

  • Stiffness

  • Joint wear (as your horse ages)

  • Chronic inflammation

The Hock Helper is designed to support your horse's hardworking joints with consistent, targeted light therapy.

Why light therapy?

The Hock Helper uses a combination of:


  • Red light (660nm) for superficial tissue

  • Near-infrared light (850nm) for deeper penetration


Near-infrared wavelengths are able to reach deeper structures, making them especially useful for thick, bony areas like the hock.


Photobiomodulation (light therapy) is used to support:

  • Circulation

  • Inflammatory balance

  • Cellular energy production

How it's used
