Moving More Freely: Sapphire's Story
For a 22-year-old mare with chronically swollen legs, one week of Red Light Therapy made a measurable difference- in every sense of the word.
Meet Sapphire.
Sapphire is a 22-year-old retired hunter/jumper mare who now spends her days teaching beginner riders the ropes. Like many senior horses, she struggles with stocking up — chronic swelling in the fetlocks of all four limbs that leaves her stiff, uncomfortable, and moving with less ease than she deserves. Her care team was looking for a gentle, consistent way to manage her swelling without adding more medication to her routine.
Sapphire's team introduced the EquiSol Red and Near-Infrared Light Therapy Leg Wraps as a daily 15-minute treatment, applied to all four limbs once a day for seven days. Her care team tracked her fetlock circumference throughout, measuring each leg at the start and after every session.
The numbers told a clear story. By Day 6, Sapphire's fetlock circumference had decreased by approximately one inch on each leg — a consistent, significant reduction across all four limbs. Beyond the measurements, her care team noticed improved movement, less stiffness, and a noticeably happier horse.
The results were compelling enough that Sapphire's team has incorporated the EquiSol Leg Wraps into her regular care routine — keeping the swelling down and helping this beloved senior mare stay comfortable, mobile, and doing what she loves.
