Light Therapy – Hock Pads

With a treatment time as little as 15 minutes, a pair of Hock Pads can be used on multiple horses per day. It is used on existing hock problems and for the prevention of hock injuries.

Each Hock Pad has 18 visible red diodes at a wave length of 650nm diodes, strategically located to help relieve and prevent problems in one of the most important and hardest worked joints in the horse.

The Hock Pads are designed specifically for left and right, and should not be interchanged since the structures of the medial (inside) and lateral (outside) aspects of the hock differ. Though your horse’s injury may be only on one side, it is advisable to treat both hocks at the same time, and they are sold in pairs for this reason.

Common treatment areas include:

• Joint inflammation
• Bog spavins
• Bone spavins
• Thoroughpins
• Curbs
• Intratarsal joints
• Digital, flexor and extensor tendons

“I have always been a strong believer in light therapy, and when I discovered the RevitaVet I was excited to have something that I could use daily on my horses to help maintain their health and fitness as well as treat injuries.  It is very easy to use and the horses all seem to really enjoy it.  We are excited to have this sort of technology to hand, and I consider the RevitaVet to be an essential part of our equipment, both at home and when on the road.”
