I ran into a very interesting lady yesterday who specializes
in Cold Laser Therapy, and I wondered if anybody else knows anything about it
or has any input. It apparently does all sorts of miraculous things (it’s
considered alternative, so I’m sure opinions will vary), such as breaking
up scar tissues unlike any other known treatment/method, healing injuries to
tendons/joints/ringbone, release of toxins, increase range of motion, etc.etc.etc.
She showed me this 34 year old horse that a year ago was on
death watch due to old age and multiple problems. Today it goes on
regular trail rides. She said it’s different than the normal laser
therapy that may be out there, and that there are only 25 practitioners in the
country who have that particular laser. She then went into all sorts of
particulars about how strong the laser is and exactly how it works –
details that I am not able to remember. This treatment was mainly used
for humans so far, and was just recently introduced to horses, who have
reported to respond to it much better than humans. Surprisingly, however,
none of her clients are endurance riders and I was wondering if anybody else
has heard of this treatment and what your thoughts were.
