The lower lip never lies! Tanzye was diggin her light therapy and massage session this afternoon! I’ve been using light therapy pads by @equine_canine_lighttherapy for a while now, and am happy to introduce the large light therapy pads into my daily practice. Light therapy does wonders in reducing soreness, decreasing inflammation, and speeding up the healing process! And the horses love it! ❤️
I started treatments at end of July 2018 due to a diagnosis of Laminitis on 17 year old ex racehorse. At the beginning she was rocking onto her hinds to maneuver to feed and water but spent most of day and night laying down. Her Veterinarian recommended euthanizing her due to the severity of case. 
I used the “Gospel’s” Equine Light Therapy pads on her front legs and hooves with body massages. By the 3rd week she was leaving her stall, eating all her feed and when I’d show up for her treatment she was nickering to me and had excitement in her eyes. After her 5th week she was hot on the lead again, when turned out she was bucking, running and acting like a youthful colt.
Watching the transformation of a horse that was to be put down to being a new horse again is a very emotional event. I’m so thankful for having the right equipment to help with such a great recovery. 

Thank you!!!
