Price: £195.00
Designed for general use, the Light Patch is one of the most versatile of the BioScan accessories. Place it anywhere on the horse's body for great results. Its flexibility allows you to position the 32 light-emitting diodes anywhere on the body. It can be placed under a leg wrap for lower leg injuries or on the back, or it can be taped on the neck or across the hamstrings. It can be easily taped in place to allow for hands-free treatment.
Light Therapy Explained
Light therapy and its effects have been researched for more than 40 years. It is clinically proven to deliver powerful therapeutic benefits to living tissue in a non-invasive, drug free way, with no side effects.
What does light therapy actually do?
Put simply, it reduces pain and stimulates healing. Biophotonic therapy (BPT), also known as Low Energy Photon Therapy (LEPT), has been clinically shown to accelerate healing by at least 40%. At this time, no side effects have been found. In fact, Russian scientists exposed healthy tissue to biophotonic energy continuously for 30 days and found no damage to the tissue. The body simply does not absorb what it cannot use.
Light therapy has unique therapeutic effects including:
Improves freedom of motion
Promotes muscle relaxation
Decreases inflammation
Promotes pain relief
Increases oxygen and blood flow
Stimulates collagen production
Increases lymphatic activity
What Else Does Light Therapy Do?
Increase vascularity
(circulation) by increasing the formation of new capillaries, which are additional blood vessels that replace damaged ones. New capillaries speed up the healing process by carrying more oxygen as well as more nutrients needed for healing and they can also carry more waste products away.
Stimulate the production of collagen
. Collagen is the most common protein found in the body. Collagen is the essential protein used to repair damaged tissue and to replace old tissue. It is the substance that holds cells together and has a high degree of elasticity. By increasing collagen production less scar tissue is formed at the damaged site.
Stimulate the release of adenosine triphosphate (ATP)
. ATP is the major carrier of energy to all cells. Increases in ATP allow cells to accept nutrients faster and get rid of waste products faster by increasing the energy level in the cell. All food turns into ATP before it is utilized by the cells. ATP provides the chemical energy that drives the chemical reaction of the cell.
Increase lymphatic system activity
. Edema, which is the swelling or natural splinting process of the body, has two basic components. The first is a liquid part which can be evacuated by the blood system and the second is comprised of the proteins which have to be evacuated by the lymphatic system. Research has shown that the lymph vessel diameter and the flow of the lymph system can be doubled with the use of light therapy. The venous diameter and the arterial diameters can also be increased. This means that both parts of edema (liquid and protein) can be evacuated at a much faster rate to relieve swelling
Increase RNA and DNA synthesis
. This helps damaged cells to be replaced more promptly.
Reduce the excitability of nervous tissue
. The photons of light energy enter the body as negative ions. This calls upon the body to send positive ions like calcium among others to go to the area being treated. These ions assist in firing the nerves thereby relieving pain.
Stimulate fibroblastic activity
which aids in the repair process. Fibroblasts are present in connective tissue and are capable of forming collagen fibers.
Increase phagocytosis
, which is the process of scavenging for and ingesting dead or degenerated cells by phagocyte cells for the purpose of clean up. This is an important part of the infection fighting process. Destruction of the infection and clean up must occur before the healing process can take place.
Induce a thermal like effect in the tissue
. The light raises the temperature of the cells although there is no heat produced from the diodes themselves. (The therapy equipment will be warm to the touch because of the electronics needed to power the diodes.)
Stimulate tissue granulation and connective tissue projections
, which are part of the healing process of wounds, ulcers or inflamed tissue.
Stimulate acetylcholine release
. Acetylcholine causes cardiac inhibition, vasodilation, gastrointestinal peristalsis and other parasympathetic effects.
