Equine veterinarians are increasingly mobile these days, and not only with respect to their practice as a whole, but in their need to move quickly from horse-to-horse with their equipment. But a veterinarian’s time is money, and so whatever the equipment, it needs to be effective, easy-to-use, and portable. And what if the techs could do it instead? This article will reveal Regenerative Laser Therapy (RLT) as a viable option in the clinic, on the go, or at a show.…
Therapeutics in equine veterinary practice have grown increasingly popular over the last couple years, especially with respect to Regenerative Medicine (RM). Within this subset of tools there is a fairly wide variety of interventions with several degrees of invasiveness, techniques, and effectiveness. In an attempt to better understand the current state of the market Sound commissioned a third-party survey to gauge the following aspects of several currently employed modalities: • Degree of Integration • Difficulty/Ease of Logistical Implementation • Level…
In the equine veterinary market, where the pathologies are deep-seated, recovery times are longer and patients are more expensive, there is a lot of pressure to fix them quicker. Within the laser market there are several claims at quick-fix solutions, but these systems have a wide variety of parameters and mechanisms. In this article we’ll dive into the main differences… • Therapeutic Stimulation • Regenerative Healing • The Clinical Difference, and • The Threshold Between the Two
Scientifically Validated to Regenerate Tissue
- Tendons
- Ligaments
- Muscles
- Cartilage
- Bone/Joint
- Wounds
- Even pre- and post-performance
Can be used alone or as an adjunct to:
- Extra-corperal Shockwave
- PRP
- Stem Cells Therapy
- IRAP
- Injections
Above and Beyond with Tissue Regeneration
Forcing the body to re-align and re-vitalize when it WOULD NOT have otherwise.
- Short, powerful laser pulses can generate acoustic waves that
- Propagate deeper into tissue
- Agitate the extra-cellular matrix
- Release the growth factors that lay dormant on injured cells
- Increase permeability of the cells
- Nutrients can enter cells easier
- Waste can exit cells easier
The Benefits of Therapy
Stimulating the body to do what it does, only faster.
- Stimulates capillary circulation
- Enhances perfusion of blood from vessels to tissues
- Initiate the release of oxygen from blood
- Enhances targeted tissue oxygenation
- Enhances efficiency of ATP production process
- Generate more cellular energy within cells
- Faster and stronger healing
