'Out To Sea' Receives Fitness Award from Veterinarians - June 1, 2008

"With our horses competing at international levels, we care very much about preparing for high performance and then supporting them with proper recovery after competition. Recognizing and fulfilling these needs is key for superior results. The IR2 Infrared Therapy System is one of my prime treatment and therapy tools. It has been so valuable this year for our thoroughbred 'Out To Sea', who recently received the Fitness award presented by the veterinarians at an international eventing competition. Holistic treatment and conditioning is a solid foundation for our continued success."

"During a recent dressage competition, one of my top thoroughbreds developed sudden back pain in combination with what looked like a saddle fit or saddle pad reaction. Skeptical that much could be done to assist quickly, I tried the IR2 Infrared Therapy System--and easily placed it on the horse's sore back for 15 minutes. Within 45 minutes, my horse's back was much less sensitive. After a second treatment the next morning, he was fully recovered. Because the IR2 system is portable, flexible and easily applied to a specific target area, it will now be one of my prime treatment and conditioning therapy tools."

Veterinarian Horse Cases Treated with Infrared Therapy

Mare with slow healing laceration of dorsal surface left hind cannon between hock and fetlock, under veterinary care. Injury occurred Feb. 28, 2007 in the pasture. Swelling has complicated healing process.
Management: 24 hour support bandage with 24 hour alternating topical antibiotic and steroid.
Trial of light therapy treatment:

For 7 consecutive days in May, RevitaVet light therapy was applied for 20 minutes at #2 setting immediately after bandage and topicals removed. To secure infrared pad on leg, it was wrapped with polo.
Thermal Imaging:The LH leg treatment area was imaged with a thermal camera every day before & after RevitaVet treatment to determine if there was a pattern of increased circulation . Below is a representative example from 5/25/2007.
The red pattern at the treatment site in the “after image” indicates increased local circulation immediately after a 20 minute treatment with RevitaVet.

The Hoof Boot was part of my daily regime on some of the top thoroughbred race horses in the country.

The trainer gave me his best stakes horses to keep in top shape as well as speed up healing the soreness and injuries from racing.

ED diodes are placed around the coronary band to stimulate hoof growth and treat important acupuncture points.

Diodes are also strategically positioned to help reduce inflammation from bruising, increase blood circulation to counter the effects of laminitis and accelerate the healing of absesses as well as the navicular bursa. Treatments, too numerous to recount, have shown this boot to have profound positive effects for a variety of disorders in the region of the foot and beyond. Any heat or discomfort in the foot should be an immediate call for the Hoof Boot.

After receiving so many almost incredible stories of the positive effects on foundering horses,
it saddens me to know horses are losing their lives with out even being given the opportunity to get the essential increased blood flow that the boot offers. I hope this will change with education. It may take one great horse to open the horse world’s eyes.

The lights in the Hoof Boot are powerful and have helped many of my horses.
It is a great product. Any barn with multiple horses should not be without one.

I received the RevitaVet in December and have used them on several cases.
1. Two year Quarter horse filly with non-healing laceration on the left carpus. The carpus was swollen, sticking out 2 ½ inches beyond normal and a non-healing flesh wound 3 ½ ‘’ in diameter for a four month duration. I applied the RevitaVet to the lesion four days in a row. After the first application I could see the new skin growth. By the fifth day the flesh wound was only 1 ½ ‘’ in diameter. In addition, the swelling had reduced. Two weeks later the flesh wound was less than a ½ ‘’ in diameter – Four applications
2. Twenty year old Quarter horse mare with a fractured medial splint bone and soft tissue damage from the carpus distal to two inches above the fetlock. She had caught the leg in a wooden fence. The skin was not broken. She had grade 3 lameness. We applied the RevitaVet on her leg three times, one week apart. The problem was 3 ½ weeks old when I first saw it. There had been no improvement since the incident. After the first application, the swelling was reduced and the lameness was a grade 2. At the time of the second application, she had a grade 1 lameness with reduced swelling. By the third application, the mare was normal with very little swelling. She was returned to regular riding activity. The response after the first treatment was remarkable in light of the previous 3 ½ weeks with no improvement. The mare is doing fine thanks to RevitaVet.

Elephant
Veterinarian Elephant Case Treated with Infrared Therapy

  

September 15, 2006
Recently, one of the elephants at The Maryland Zoo in Baltimore sustained a soft tissue injury in one of her ankles after taking a misstep.

The Zoo Elephant Team and Veterinary staff investigated several ways to help heal the ankle as quickly and decisively as possible. As part of the treatment regimen, we decided to use an infrared sports therapy device from RevitaVet in order to speed healing of the tissue at the injury. Using this device in combination with changes in the elephant’s exercise practices resulted in a significant improvement of the ankle. The elephant is still undergoing regular treatments with the infrared device, and we have seen the injury decrease from affecting her 50% of the time when she was walking to now being only barely noticeable about 10% of the time. As we continue her treatment schedule, we anticipate a full recovery and have been extremely pleased with both the effectiveness of the device and the ease of applying it.
