Targeted support for one of the hardest-working structures in the athletic horse.
Suspensory injuries are common in racehorses, sport horses and other high-performance horses.
Suspensory ligament injuries can cause pain, inflammation and reduced performance, particularly in horses involved in racing, jumping and other athletic activities. The AEL IR 4400 can be used as part of a rehabilitation program to deliver therapeutic infrared laser energy to the affected area. Laser therapy helps support local circulation and cellular activity, assisting the body’s natural repair processes. It also helps manage pain and inflammation associated with soft-tissue injury, making it a useful component of ongoing rehabilitation. Treatment can be applied around the affected suspensory region according to the veterinarian’s or trained practitioner’s assessment and treatment plan. Used alongside appropriate rest, controlled exercise and care, the AEL IR 4400 helps support a structured return to work.
Common applications
• Suspensory body injuries
• Proximal suspensory pain
• Suspensory branch injuries
• Rehabilitation following diagnosed injury
• Support during controlled return to work
Where to treat
Treat the affected suspensory region and surrounding soft tissue as directed as per the chart provided with the unit.
Why laser therapy?
Research has reported potential improvements in pain, swelling and lesion characteristics with laser treatment, but current evidence for faster return to full function remains limited.
