Anyone have any experience using light therapy on soft tissue injuries? 
Horse has soft tissue injury down in the right rear hoof.  Been off for over a year, still not healed.  Any other suggestions?

I am not familiar with this particular therapy. I have had luck with Shockwave, but not for the injury you described. I have also have friends who live and die by MagnaWave therapy.

So many options! Do your research!

I know a lot of people that swear by them. I have a small pad with an attachable battery that I would sell. I just do not use it enough. It is in brand new condition. Pm me if interested

What about the PHT MagnaCu Bell Boots?  Anyone have any experience with these for this type of injury?

Yes, they are great and can be worn 24/7.

My concern is you're going on over a year with the injury and it's still not healing properly? Have you had a second opinion?

Had MRI done a year ago.  Horse has been turned out since.  Rode intermittantly just to see if he was getting better or not.  Started legging him up after 9 months.  He is sound on the straight, but not in a turn.  Vet said very hard to treat since it is down in the hoof.  Some horses heal, some never come back.  Horse has been barefoot the whole time.  Had him shod two weeks ago in hopes of it helping with support.  I actually think he is worse.
