Hot & Cold Laser
HOT
The Sound Regenerative Laser Therapy (RLT) delivers light in very short, very high-energy pulses. These pulses are absorbed deep into the tissue, creating an outgoing shockwave called a photo-acoustic wave that propagates even deeper into the tissue. These waves can interact with the web of tissue around the tendon/ligament that hold important growth factors. RLT can force these growth factors to be released and absorbed into injured cells when they would NOT have naturally. RLT technology broadens the scope of what can be treated to the more severe pathologies, especially in the ligaments and tendons of the equine athlete. Injuries that will naturally cause scar tissue, which over time will compromise the elasticity of the tendon/ligament, can now be nipped in the bud (if caught early) or even restored in chronic cases.

- Enhances targeted tissue oxygenation
- Enhances efficiency of ATP production process
- Generate more cellular energy within cells
- Faster and stronger healing Used on: Ligaments/Tendons, Muscles, Cartilage, Bone/Joint, Wounds pre- and post-performance
