This year Photizo will champion its initiative for greater awareness about an integrated and holistic approach to prevent and manage canine arthritis.
Canine Osteoarthritis is a symptomatic inflammatory condition affecting the joints and cartilage and is the most common form of arthritis with more than a third of UK dogs affected (PDSA). No dog is invincible when it comes to ageing, but it’s not inevitable every dog will get arthritis. Being aware how nutrition, weight management and environmental factors like slippery floors and over-exercise affect the joints over time can reduce, even in some cases prevent, such inflammation of the joints.
Photizo is encouraging an approach that regards optimum wellbeing as comprising ‘The Three Pillars of Health’: nutrition, the immune system and the physical frame. Working on the holistic principle that If one pillar-like nutrition starts to crumble, it will impact negatively on the immune system and the physical frame.
According to Ruth Milner, Managing Director of Danetre Health Products: “The eBook is a bid to raise awareness of the whole picture when it comes to Canine Arthritis. Whilst our Photizo Vetcare device is a home use, non-invasive tool to help reduce pain and inflammation in arthritic dogs naturally, it also allows for massage therapists and other manual therapists to work deeply to release stiffness, promote lymph flow and improve mobility. We also understand it is so important to feed a species-appropriate diet and manage your dog’s weight. Alongside other therapies such as physiotherapy, hydrotherapy, acupuncture, and combining correct exercise and lifestyle changes, this complete holistic approach will make a difference and help owners to manage this painful condition which affects so many dogs in the UK.”
Photizo Vetcare was launched in 2013 its success and popularity with vets, vet nurses, animal physiotherapists and holistic animal health practitioners, highlights the power of this non-invasive LED treatment device. Applying an appropriate dose of red and near-infrared light from Photizo penetrates the mitochondria, creating a cascade of biological reactions, including reducing inflammation and promoting natural healing.
