How Light Therapy Works

Discover the science behind our gentle, effective healing technology

Dual-Wavelength Technology

Photizo uses a precise combination of red and infrared LED light that penetrates deep into tissue, naturally stimulating your pet’s healing response without any discomfort.

Enhanced Blood Flow

The warm, therapeutic light improves circulation to treatment areas, helping deliver oxygen and nutrients while removing waste products for faster healing.

Safe & Non-Invasive

Our gentle therapy is completely painless and stress-free, with no known side effects. Just 31 seconds of treatment per area can provide hours of relief.

Quick & Effective

Most pets experience noticeable improvement after just a few sessions, with continued benefits as healing progresses naturally from within.

The Research Behind It

Peer-reviewed evidence supporting photobiomodulation therapy for animal pain, arthritis and wound healing

Study 1

PBMT for Canine Osteoarthritis

Looney et al., 2018 — Canadian Veterinary Journal / PMC
  • Randomised, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in dogs with elbow osteoarthritis
  • 82% of PBMT-treated dogs reduced their NSAID requirements vs 0% in the placebo group
  • Significant improvement in lameness scores in the PBMT group (P = 0.001)
  • Greater pain reduction recorded in 9 out of 11 measured parameters (P < 0.05)
Relevance to Photizo Vetcare

This RCT directly supports Photizo Vetcare's use for joint pain and arthritis in dogs, demonstrating meaningful pain relief and reduced reliance on medication after PBMT treatment.

Study 2

PBMT for Wound Healing in Dogs

Hoisang et al., 2021 — BMC Veterinary Research
  • Randomised controlled trial assessing PBMT on chronic wounds in client-owned dogs
  • PBMT groups showed significantly greater wound area reduction from day 7 onward (P < 0.05)
  • Average wound reduction of 57–62% in PBMT groups vs 42% in the control group over 15 days
  • Results consistent across both single and multi-wavelength PBMT protocols
Relevance to Photizo Vetcare

This trial confirms Photizo Vetcare's effectiveness for wound healing in animals, supporting its use for lacerations, post-surgical sites, skin grafts and chronic non-healing wounds.

Important Note Always press the probe gently but firmly against the skin or coat to ensure effective light penetration. Allow at least 4 hours between sessions on the same area. Do not treat directly over the eyes. If your animal shows signs of distress during treatment, stop and consult your vet. For serious or undiagnosed conditions, always seek veterinary advice first.

"A fantastic device and a very worthwhile investment."

We're delighted with the Photizo Vet Care machine. It's a brilliant device, easy to use, well made and very effective. The horses respond really well to it, standing relaxed during treatments and seeming very comfortable afterwards, which has been great to see. It's become a valuable part of our routine for supporting recovery and general wellbeing, and we've found it both practical and reliable around the yard. We'd highly recommend the Photizo Vet Care to anyone working with horses.

"Treatment on furry patients."

This has been a great tool both for us and the furry patients I work with as a canine massage therapist. The best part is while some light therapy devices require several minutes per treatment area this one just takes a minute so I can easily work various areas and not have issues with patients wanting to move.

"Scar on horse knee."

Our daughter's barrel horse has an old scar on her knee. She had some fluid build-up that we were not aware of until we noticed some swelling. At that point, I started using the Photizo Vetcare along with an extraction gel. Within a week the scar started draining and opened up completely. I've been using the Photizo Vetcare every day, along with a wound bandage spray to protect from flies and the elements, and the results have been amazing.
