With the Hip + Leg Sleeve
Low-power LEDs, no UV and no laser. Mild warmth that most dogs relax into while they lie down.
One sleeve with two leg flaps, so the hips and both back legs get light and warmth at the same time.
“She has been running like a puppy.”
Warm, relaxed hips before they push up off the floor or hop toward the car.
“this helped him to get to his water and out the doggie door”
They doze, the sleeve does the work. Pick the rechargeable version for sessions anywhere in the house.
“Relaxation within 5 mins of putting it on.”
How the sleeve works
The hip panel and two leg flaps hold 88 LEDs against the body. Red light (660 nm) is absorbed near the skin, and near-infrared (850 nm) travels deeper, toward the muscles of the hips and thighs.
Hip panel + two leg flaps
One sleeve covers the hips and both back legs.
Red light, 660 nm: the surface
Absorbed in the skin and the tissue just beneath it.
Near-infrared, 850 nm: deeper
Travels further, toward the hip and thigh muscles.
Wand vs sleeve
Hips, thighs and knees stiffen together. A wand held above the fur lights one small patch at a time, while the sleeve covers all of it, light side in.
Hip panel + two leg flaps
88 LEDs on the inside of one soft sleeve.
USB or rechargeable
Run it from a USB plug, or charge it and go cordless.
