Can Red & NIR Therapy Help Improve Your Pet's Health and Well being?

    Red and near-infrared (NIR) therapy for pets is a non-invasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to promote healing, reduce pain, and improve overall health. It can be beneficial for conditions like arthritis, inflammation, and wound healing by stimulating cellular activity and increasing blood flow.

The growing amount of evidence documenting red light therapy’s therapeutic benefits, both cosmetic and medical, has made the treatment more popular than ever. It can reduce pain from chronic joint conditions, decelerate the skin's aging process, and potentially improve sleep quality, among others. But can this revolutionary treatment for humans work the same wonders for your beloved pets?

    Dogs, cats, and other animals are prone to cuts, inflammation, and pain like humans are. Trips to the veterinarian, surgeries, dressings, and medication can be costly and distressing to both the owner and the pet.

Using Red Light therapy devices is highly beneficial for pets (especially dogs), as they can penetrate deep into the skin, muscles, tendons, ligaments, and bones to stimulate a strong healing response. Some veterinarians and pet owners have already been using red light therapy with near-infrared wavelengths to treat the health problems of different animal species.

  HOW DOES IT WORK?

    Red light therapy for dogs and other animals works similarly to how it affects people. Almost all forms of life benefit from exposure to red and near-infrared light when it is administered in a controlled, careful manner over time.

Red and near-infrared light wavelengths within the range of 600 nanometers (nm) to 1000nm affect cellular mitochondria, helping increase cellular energy production in the body. This rise in cellular energy occurs due to the light wavelengths facilitating the production of a specific protein essential for energy creation. Nearly all species have this protein known as cytochrome c oxidase (CcO).

Energized cells perform their roles more efficiently and effectively. As a result, the body of pets and humans alike experience improved healing, recovery, functionality, and better overall health.
