Used the Bioflex Nano Wave on my dog’s luxating patella today to help calm down the inflammation from his kneecap slipping around in that right hind leg. 😣 Poor Sid… it’s been a week of limping and he may need surgery to fully fix the issue.
In the meantime, laser therapy is absolutely indicated to help manage the excess inflammation, so we’re doing what we can at home.
I chose the Nano because my regular clinical laser is way too big for his tiny knee joint. (I tried… he was NOT having it. The size alone made him wiggle like a worm. 🐛😂)
The Nano was the perfect size, but I did have to play around with the settings because the red light setting gives off noticeable heat.
Here’s what worked tonight:
• 5 min red — but Sid started wiggling
• Switched to 5 min half red / half blue — still squirmy
• Ended with 5 min blue only, which he tolerated so much better
Tomorrow I’m going to see if he can handle the red/blue combo again (hoping it’s less warm as he gets used to it) and fingers crossed we can work up to the full 20-minute therapeutic dose.
Healing journey for my little man continues. 💙🐾
