Light therapy<\/strong> has been used for several years to treat injuries in humans. But it\u2019s not only homo sapiens<\/em> that benefits from its healing properties. Veterinarians<\/strong> have found that using red and infrared LED light therapy has produced very good results when treating injured domestic and farm animals. And, more recently, wildlife rehabilitation<\/strong> organisations have started using light therapy to assist in the healing of animals so that they can be released back into their natural habitat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Red and infrared light therapy<\/strong> is an effective and safe remedy for helping to reduce the pain<\/strong> and inflammation commonly associated with wounds. It can penetrate deep through the layers of the skin and because it enhances and improves circulation<\/strong> in the skin and other parts of the body, it can bring oxygen and nutrients to injured tissues, promoting healing. It helps ease pain, relieve inflammation, and protect against oxidative stress<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some of the benefits of using Photizo Vetcare<\/strong> light therapy to treat injuries in wildlife include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • It is safe, natural, non-invasive, and painless<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • It increases microcirculation<\/strong> and formation of new capillaries<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • The wound area receives more oxygen and nutrients <\/strong>to help with the natural wound healing process.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Promotes lymph system activity \u2013 this helps with detoxification of the wound<\/strong> without overtaxing the lymph system and prevents lymphoedema<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Cleans up dead cells<\/strong>: boosted blood circulation helps with cleaning up dead or damaged cells, including dead bacteria.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Promotes collagen<\/strong> and elastin production in the final wound healing phases<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Helps to release ATP (raw cellular energy) which gives energy to the damaged cells<\/strong> in the wound so they can heal better and faster.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Reduce oedema<\/strong> (swelling<\/strong>). Oedema has two components, liquid and protein. Researchers have shown that the lymph diameter and the flow of the lymph system can be nearly doubled with the use of light therapy.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Stimulate the release of endorphins<\/strong> which are the body\u2019s own pain-fighting<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
