Photonic Therapy Reverses Colic
My 25 year old school pony (the absolute golden girl of the stable) came down with colic one evening. She has been prone to colicing in the past and has always need vetinary intervention as soon as possible as she tends to worsen rapidly. This time due to her going down at 5.30pm (out of vet hours hence the call fee etc escallates) I thought I would at least do the colic points with the photon torch.
So - I went over all the recommended points a couple of times over with a good 30 seconds on each point. Before my eyes and to my disbelief she started looking brighter in the eye and not wanting to go to ground constantly. After 5 minutes she was happily eating her hay - and never looked back!
I monitored her a couple of time before turning in for the night - all good!
To this day I still marvel at this case. I have used the torch many many times over with muscle soreness etc with excellent results. Every stable and indeed household should have one!

Cilla's Injuries July 06 Bill & Cilla Gold Cup Warwick Qld October 06
After Cilla's accident mid july 2006 our greatest concern at this time was the shock.
The closest vet is a least a couple of hours away and we thought that there was no way Cilla was in any condition to be travelled.
I remembered Trevor telling me that you could use the Photonic Therapy Light for all kinds of thingsso I raced to get the DVD to find out what to do.
In my panic to get the DVD out of its packet I snapped it in two.
In desperation, I climbed to the top of the hay shed to use the mobile phone to call Trevor to get help for the situation.
He was great and told me what to do and what points to treat for the shock.
When her condition stabilized,we thoroughly examined her legs.To say the least her legs looked a mess.
There was no skin left to stich and the wounds were very deep.
I used disinfectant to clean the legs,I painted her legs with honey and Stockholm tar and used the Photonic Therapy Light as Trevor directed.Surround the Dragon.
The first few days her legs swelled to a great size and the wounds kept weeping.
I kept hosing and using the light and applying the honey and Stockholm tar each day, mostly at least twice daily.
It took a few weeks before the legs started to improve and then she healed very quickly,It was truly amazing.
By the beginning of September, Cilla was moving freely and cantering around the paddock.
By mid September the legs were healed completely and we were pretty sure that she was completely sound.
We mustered on her a couple of times so then we talked about starting at the Warwick Gold Cup.
Entries close the beginning of October so we nominated her for a draft at the end of September to see how she handled it.
No problems. At Warwick, she put 3 very good rounds together and just missed the final of the Canning by 1 point.
She has won and placed several times since and it is not very often that she misses the final.
There is hardly any scaring, and we couldn't be happier with the way she has healed.
We regularly use the Photonic Therapy Light on all our horses as well as using it for our own personal use.
We would highly recommend the Photonic Therapy Light and hopefully you do not have a situation like Cilla's
but even for everyday aches and pains, cuts, bumps, and even toothache it is wonderful.
The Photonic Therapy Light is great and we are very happy that we purchased it.

Shortly after purchasing my Photonic Therapy Touch I competed at the Perth Royal show in the show jumping. Mister Expert and Noblewood Park Calypso competed in the Grand Prix on the Monday. For Calypso this was the 4th start in 4 days, Mister Expert his 3rd start. They were getting tired but I had been so busy I forgot about the torch.
On the Monday I thought I really should work on them before the class. I was still learning the basics of the therapy at this stage so I worked on the 9 standard points and then slowly ran the torch along their backs, over their hindquarters and down the hamstrings, not really knowing what I was doing. When I started to warm them up I was amazed, they both felt better than they did the first day. Mister Expert jumped out of his skin and won the Grand Prix and Calypso was 4th, he was clear both rounds but had a time fault in the 2nd round, rider error! I am still very much a beginner but I can certainly feel the difference when they have been treated.
Our horses put in so much effort for us,I’m pleased I can make them feel more comfortable and hopefully enjoy their work.

Dear Laura and Trevor
I just wanted to let you know of the events that have taken place over the last 12 months or so that my torch and photonic therapy has helped with, and let you know how things are progressing....
I have told you before how much of a skeptic I was in the beginning, but the bottom line is with my horses I will try anything once to get them over their trials and tribulations. My old thoroughbred Maestro used to be the Most Accident Prone Horse in the world. The first opportunity I had to use the torch was after a bad storm when Maestro freaked out and bolted when some lightning struck, slid in the mud and of course went straight under the nasty rusty old barbed wire fence of the property I was renting at the time. He basically degloved the back of his legs - if it were not for the fact I knew I had a lot of work to do on him that night I would have been violently ill when faced with the blood and gore I was presented with. There was no point in calling a vet (apart from the ridiculous late hour, there was nothing left to stitch!!!) so I washed everything down with peroxide, smothered him in calendula ointment, and let him be for the night. The following morning after I called you I began work on just running the torch gently over the outside of the wound, and watched in sheer amazement over the next two weeks as the gaping wounds, some areas which were through several layers of flesh, began to heal at a rate which I would not have believed if I had not seen it for myself. There was no infection, no scarring, no pain on Maestro's part (and trust me, he would have let me know if there was!!!!) and to look at his legs today you would never know what a horror movie he looked like that night!!!!!
And of course, the Big Project, working on getting my mare in foal after everyone has told me that she will never carry a foal again.... I am so glad I made that trip up to Toowoomba that day in all the mud and rain and invested in my kit... Talk about money well spent... Brilliant. Thankyou so much, and not just for the kit, but for your continued support and advice and being on the end of the phone when I need help with something.... This really is life changing stuff.....
Kind regards, and many many thanks

We started investigating the merits of the Photonic Torch approximately 3 years ago, due to having a horse with arthritic problems in the hock.
This condition also affected the horses hip thus limiting free movement.
We had 3 treatments of the torch to the horse and found that the stilted movement had gone.
Since that time we have had a torch of our own and with periodic treatments the horse has appeared to remain pain free.
The Photonic torch is definately a part of our vet kit.
