Specific Benefits for Horses

Red Light Therapy (RLT) uses specific red and near‑infrared (NIR) wavelengths to stimulate cellular energy production and support natural recovery. By interacting with mitochondrial enzymes (notably cytochrome‑c‑oxidase), RLT can modulate inflammation, circulation, and tissue repair—drug‑free and non‑invasive.

Accelerated Healing

Promotes faster tissue
healing and regeneration, which is particularly beneficial for injuries
like wounds, lacerations, and trauma.

Joint and Muscle Support

Addresses joint pain, osteoarthritis, and muscle tension, which is crucial for performance and aging horses.

Stress and Anxiety Reduction

Calms the horse's nervous system by promoting the production of serotonin and reducing cortisol, the stress hormone.

Reduced Scarring

Encourages cleaner healing with less scar tissue, especially in skin wounds.

Pain and Inflammation Management

Reduces inflammation and chronic pain associated with arthritis, muscle soreness, and past injuries.

Non-Invasive Treatment

Offers a non-medicated and non-invasive approach to care, providing comfort and relaxation to the horse.


Real results. No filters. No additives. Just science-backed light.

Visible Results After Just 48 Hours

This photo shows the natural healing progression of a facial wound in a horse, treated with targeted red light therapy. After just 24 hours, inflammation visibly reduced and scab formation began. At 48 hours, the wound had significantly closed and healing was well underway — without medication or invasive treatment.

Red light therapy supports the body's own repair processes by stimulating cellular regeneration, improving circulation, and reducing inflammation — safely, effectively, and drug-free.

Faster recovery - Less inflammation - Drug-free and non-invasive.

Accelerated Healing in Just 24 Hours

This image shows the visible effect of red light therapy on a fresh leg wound in a horse. After just 24 hours, redness and swelling have significantly reduced, and the wound has already begun to close.

By boosting microcirculation and supporting natural tissue repair, red light therapy helps reduce recovery time — safely, painlessly, and without medication.


Benefits across disciplines

Short, regular sessions integrated into training or cool‑down. RLT is an adjunct—not a replacement—for veterinary diagnosis and care. Evidence in horses is growing and mixed across indications; outcomes depend on wavelength, dose (J/cm²), and protocol.

At Red Stride, we genuinely care about our customers and are always available for excellent after-sales support — via email, WhatsApp, or phone.

Disciplines

  • Dressage & Show Jumping: Support for muscle recovery between schooling and show days; pre‑ride warm‑up routines.
  • Racing & Endurance: Sessions aimed at managing post‑exercise soreness and aiding soft‑tissue recovery.
  • Eventing & Western: Complementary care for high‑load tendons/ligaments during heavy training cycles. (Evidence suggests potential benefit; still developing.)
  • Leisure & Rehab: Gentle, routine use for general wellness and wound‑care support alongside veterinary treatment (findings mixed; see evidence notes below).
