Ultrasound is very effective in promoting healing in soft tissue injuries, i.e. tendon injuries, muscle tears, etc. This works at cellular level by increasing cell membrane permeability thus improving chemical exchange across the cell membrane making it work more efficiently.

It assists the body's existing healing process and is especially effective for soft tissue problems and reduction of swelling.

It stimulates tissue regeneration and promotes the synthesis and increases the tensile strength of collagen. This promotes better, stronger healing.

When used thermally it can decrease muscle spasm and increase circulation and can be very useful in reducing chronic scar tissue and adhesions.

Laser is used over acute wounds, on soft tissue and joint problems but can also stimulate a stalled healing process in more chronic conditions. It is very useful in giving pain relief especially for chronic conditions such as arthritis.

This technique utilises light energy to stimulate the mitochondria of the cell to produce oxygen thus improving the efficiency of the cell. 

This is used as both an assessment and treatment modality. NEMS is tolerated well by dogs and horses.  It will identify painful or immobile muscles and release spasm by mobilising the muscle
and stimulating nutrition into the affected muscle.  For wasted muscle it is proven to increase muscle bulk and can strengthen and re-educate weak or damaged muscles.  It is easy to administer for the owner and is very effective as an adjunct to a controlled exercise programme.

PEME influences cellular behaviour by inducing electrical changes around and within the cell. 

By increasing blood supply in this way, oxygen pressure and calcium transport are increased
thus helping with cellular regeneration, the absorption of calcium in bones and improved quality
of cartilage. 

It specifically helps:

• Pain Reduction
• Back Pain
• Fracture Healing
• Reduces Swelling
• Arthritis
• Controls Inflammation

This is a pain relieving modality and works by stimulating the sensory nerves and has a pain gating effect at spinal cord level, stimulating the release of endorphins (the body’s natural pain killer). It is particularly effective for chronic conditions.

As for all electrotherapies, it is non-invasive. In addition it is versatile regarding location of pain and easy to administer for the owner.
