Support mobility in one of the horse’s most important joints.
The stifle is a complex joint exposed to substantial forces during acceleration, jumping, turning and racing.
Stifle problems can significantly affect a horse’s movement, performance and ability to train, as the stifle is one of the major weight-bearing joints of the hind limb. The AEL IR 4400 can be used around the stifle region to support the management of pain and inflammation associated with soft-tissue and joint-related conditions. Therapeutic laser energy stimulates cellular activity and supports circulation within treated tissues. This can assist the body’s natural recovery processes while helping maintain comfort during rehabilitation. The laser can be particularly useful as part of a broader program involving veterinary assessment, rest and controlled exercise. Regular treatment may provide a valuable non-invasive addition to the management and recovery of horses experiencing stifle-related problems.
Common applications
• Stifle-associated muscular discomfort
• Soft-tissue support around the stifle
• Rehabilitation following veterinary diagnosis
• Post-exercise recovery
Treatment areas
