Tendon injuries in horses

Unfortunately, horses often sustain tendon injuries, for example to the suspensory ligament or the digital flexor tendons. The injury can occur if the horse is injured, from repetitive stress, or from other illness. Typically, the vet will make the diagnosis after performing an ultrasound scan of the injured area. Tendon injuries can cause a lot of pain, as well lameness and inflammation.

Laser therapy accelerates the natural healing process and increases the blood circulation. This reduces edema and inflammation, and the horse will typically have less pain following laser treatment.

Back pain in horses

Pain in the back region, for instance from muscle tensions or pain from an ill-fitting saddle or bone changes, can cause back stiffness and other symptoms in the back. Note that similar symptoms, such as muscle stiffness and pain, can also occur as secondary symptoms to lameness in one or more legs. In those instances, treating the back problem will have no effect before the primary problem is solved, therefore a thorough examination is recommended.

Issues in the lower back, resulting in poor performance in the horse, are very common. It could be issues in the bones and/or muscles. A horse suffering from back pain can often benefit from laser therapy because the laser reduces pain and stimulates the natural healing, for instance following a muscle injury.

For muscle tensions, laser treatment helps loosen the muscles by stimulating the blood supply and increasing the release of waste products.

Wound healing in horses

Laser therapy is very beneficial for treating wounds. Laser therapy increases the blood circulation and accelerates the wound healing. Faster wound healing helps minimize the risk of complications and reduces scar tissue. Generally, the quicker the wound heals, the less risk of infection, which might otherwise further complicate things.

Wound healing was one of the first indications of laser therapy, which was discovered by accident during animal testing. It’s common for horses to sustain injuries or wounds, whether in the field or during training. Laser therapy accelerates the natural healing significantly and shortens the course of disease.

For professional riders and trainers, it’s often crucial that they get their horse back in training as quickly as possible, so they don’t miss competitions or races.
