Why Low Level Laser Therapy Leads the Pack for Agility Dogs

Agility dogs have great athletic talent. But with that – alongside intense training and competition – comes a much greater propensity for musculoskeletal injury and degenerative joint disease.

DOG MED LASER – THE LLLT PACK LEADER

You don’t have to be a trainer, veterinarian, agility expert or athlete to understand that agility dogs push their bodies to the limit. Low Laser Light Therapy (LLLT) — applied before and after each training session and competition — counteracts this stress and keeps agility dogs performing optimally.

THE BENEFITS OF LLLT BY DOG MED LASER

• Prevents muscle damage
• Reduces muscle soreness
• Increases muscle capacity
• Improves functional and athletic activity
• Increases fatigue resistance
• Accelerates recovery after training or competition

Numerous clinical studies have demonstrated these benefits, and also shown how LLLT increases muscle mass after training, and decreases muscle inflammation and oxidative stress.*

Rehabilitation therapies — especially LLLT — are emerging as gamechangers for ensuring agility dogs recover swiftly from injuries and continue to shine in the arena. And when it comes to LLLT, Dog Med Laser is leading the pack.

PBMT TECHNOLOGY

Dog Med Laser uses Photobiomodulation (another name for LLLT) to:

• Increase blood flow and local oxygen delivery to muscles
• Reduce joint and muscle inflammation post training or competition
• Relieve muscle stiffness
• Improve mobility
• Increase ATP production (the body’s energy machine)
• Accelerate injury healing processes for faster return to competition.

The effectiveness of this technology is well-established, having been:

• Rigorously tested on humans
• Endorsed by the World Association of Laser Therapy as the gold standard in medication-free pain management
• Backed by over 8,000 clinical studies

Moreover, it’s easy to use, has zero side effects, and is 100% safe, requiring no eye protection (for dog or dog parent) during application.

As for its specific effects on dogs — agility or otherwise — PBMT’s gentle beams penetrate deep into tissues when applied to their bodies. The result? Speedy recovery, reduced pain, enhanced performance, injury prevention, and overall well-being.

THE DOG MED LASER DIFFERENCE

While LLL Therapy is already widely used by veterinary clinics, Dog Med Laser is the first device to be developed specifically for pets (dogs and cats) and certified for home use. This means it can be used in training or competition environments and makes it more economical than frequent clinic visits. Furthermore, the Dog Med Laser comes with two brush attachments that deliver dog-approved back scratches along with cell stimulation and pain relief!

DELIVERING PEAK PERFORMANCE FOR AGILITY DOGS

In the world of agility, where every second, millimeter, and degree count, Dog Med Laser allows dogs to continue to amaze with their leaps, bounds, and spirit, long after the rest of the pack have called it a day.

*This is no doubt why LLL Therapy has become common in the professional sports world over the past ten years. NBA, NFL, MLB, NHL and USA Cycling athletes all use LLLT.
