Support recovery
Aims to support the different stages of the body’s natural recovery process.
Laser therapy for animals
Targeted light therapy to support recovery.
Low Level Laser and LED therapy for horses and dogs, offered separately or combined with osteopathy.
How does it work?
Supporting natural processes in the body.
Laser therapy treats a defined area with concentrated red laser light and, depending on the application, blue LED light. Astrid carefully identifies the affected area and relevant trigger points and adapts the treatment accordingly.
This form of light therapy is used to support local circulation and cellular activity. It can therefore complement pain management, wound care and recovery of muscles, tendons, joints and skin.
Potential benefits
Targeted, portable and non-invasive.
Comfort
May complement care for pain, tension and swelling.
Circulation
Supports local circulation and delivery of nutrients to the treated area.
Wound care
May complement treatment of wounds, scars and skin conditions.
On location
The portable equipment can be used at the stable, at the client’s location or on the road.
Combined care
Can be offered separately or in combination with osteopathy.
Equipment
Three devices for different treatment areas.
01
Precise point stimulation
PowerLaser Pro500
For specific muscles, trigger or acupuncture points and smaller areas. HyperPulsed™ with 1000 mW peak power and 500 mW average power.
02
Larger treatment areas
PowerLaser Pro1500
Three laser diodes for medium-sized body areas, muscle groups and surface or skin conditions. Peak power 3000 mW and average power 1500 mW.
03
Red laser & blue LED
PowerLaser 1200 Dual Wavelength
Combines 660 nm red laser light with 405 nm blue LED light for applications closer to the skin surface, including wound and skin care.
Laser therapy in practice
Precisely focused on the treatment area.
Applications
For horses and dogs.
For horses
- Tendon, joint and muscle injuries
- Back and muscle tension
- Wounds and scar care
- Support after physical strain
For dogs and small animals
- Tendon, joint and muscle problems
- Wounds and postoperative wound care
- Skin and inflammatory conditions
- Complementary support for arthritis or oral problems
Treatment plan
Adapted to the condition, area and response.
- 1
Astrid locates the affected body area and relevant trigger points.
- 2
The area is treated for an appropriate length of time with the suitable device.
- 3
The animal’s response and progress determine the next steps.
- 4
A more extensive course often consists of 6 to 8 sessions, generally 2 to 3 times per week.
Fee
A full combined laser and osteopathic treatment costs €100, excluding any travel costs. The frequency and pricing of a separate laser programme are discussed in advance.
Response to laser therapy varies according to the animal, condition and stage of treatment. No specific outcome or exact recovery time can be guaranteed.Personal guidance
Could laser therapy fit your animal’s recovery plan?
Discuss the situation with Astrid. She will help determine an appropriate approach and when veterinary assessment should come first.
