Our animals are energetic, and yes, like us, they are prone to cuts, broken bones, inflammation, cuts, and sometimes painful torn muscles and arthritis. Emergency vet visits start at $800, not including the additional monies on top of the emergency vet visit, in my community, Show Low, AZ. This is an extreme cost but also causes extreme distress to our pets being sick or hurt. I like many other pet parents have experienced that heartfelt stress due to that dreaded middle-of-the-night emergency vet call and rushing to the vet hospital.

I have been using holistic non-invasive treatments on myself for many years, so why would we not use this same holistic approach on pets?

I started using Red Light Therapy a couple of years ago, and I love it! My journey with Red Light Therapy started with a surgery on my face where I needed healing due to a surgical wound. Not only did the RED lights speed up my healing process on my face, but I also noticed the red spider veins around my nose disappeared too. I was ecstatic that all the research I've read on Red Light Therapy was true, therefore turning me into a believer that red light therapy works wonderfully.

I personally believe red light therapy devices are highly effective and an excellent treatment for A-L-L pets, and humans too. Healing Pets with Red Light Therapy is definitely a holistic practice I use frequently. Example: On 4/19/2023, my cat was bitten by a (bull?) snake. He could not use his leg and it was severely swollen, I thought he broke it. He would not let me touch it to look at it, so I thought to use my red light on his leg. His sessions were about 2-3 hours a day for 4 days. Today, he is outside and able to walk again and the swelling is completely gone, though I can see two big puncture marks on his leg that are nice in size and all the hair in that area of his leg is gone. The puncture marks look like a snake bite.

LED red light therapy is not a new technology. Holistic veterinarians have been using this technology for decades; but at one time, it was only accessible by use in a veterinarian's office. Not anymore. If you are reading this, I hope you have an "aha" realization that you can now use this treatment on your own, in the privacy of your home, without the high cost of the holistic veterinary in-office visit. The greatness of RED light therapy is that it heals more issues than what I have posted. It does provide treatment for pet issues such as:

There is so much more to say about the healing properties of LED Red Light Therapy. It's simple with how it works on our animals. It works the same on Pets as it does on Humans. Light wavelengths within the range of 600 nm impact our cellular mitochondria. This is where energy is generated. Red light wavelengths increase the production of cellular energy. This energy increase occurs because the light wavelengths facilitate the production of a protein which is essential for the creation of energy, which is present in nearly all species.

LED Light for Dogs

A 2017 study evaluated the effects of pre-operative red light therapy on dogs undergoing bone surgery. Twenty-seven dogs were divided into two groups, one group received the red light treatment pre-operatively, and the other group received a fake treatment. Eight weeks after treatment, a greater proportion of the dogs treated with light therapy had healed.
