Description

LED thermotherapy device for companion animals

The present invention relates to an LED thermal phototherapy device, in particular, by irradiating LED light that is beneficial to humans and companion animals to companion animals, partial or systemic treatment such as musculoskeletal injury, muscle pain, blood circulation decrease and skin disease of companion animals is possible, It is configured to solve problems such as burns that may occur due to heat of the phototherapy device.

For the purpose of treating musculoskeletal injuries, relieving muscle pain, increasing blood circulation, and treating skin diseases, people use near-infrared rays and LLLT (Lower Level Laser Therapy) to treat or alleviate symptoms.

In particular, unlike high-power lasers, LED light can be irradiated to a large area of disease with appropriate light output, and skin treatment technology using an LED light source is similar to the principle that sunlight from plants is converted into plant cells through chlorophyll. By irradiating the LED light source, it induces a photo-biochemical reaction between skin cells.

Phototherapy using such an LED light source is based on the fact that photons of the LED light source are absorbed by chromospheres or photoacceptors in cellular tissues and promote the metabolic activity of cells. The light absorbed by the cells increases the synthesis of ROS and ATP in the cell tissue, and the cells exposed to red light and near-infrared light release nitric oxide (NO).

Light of the selected wavelength at an appropriate time and period is absorbed by photoreceptors such as cytochrome C oxidase in cells, which photolyzes NO, promotes enzyme activation, and promotes mitochondrial metabolism and ATP production. Due to this, proteins such as hemoglobin and myoglobin release additional NO, which is a continuous intracellular biochemical reaction. As a result, LED light irradiation on cells activates the overall metabolic activity of cells and plays a big role in cell regeneration and rehabilitation.

In addition, the LED light irradiation can promote the production of collagen and elastin in the skin, suppress the occurrence of wrinkles, and improve the skin moist and elastic.

In addition, LED light irradiation exerts a significant effect in the treatment of skin diseases. For example, irradiating LED light, especially blue LED light, to the skin area where acne has occurred has an effect of improving the overall condition of the skin by extinguishing bacteria that cause acne and subsides inflammation.

As such, it has already been recognized that LED light is effective in treating musculoskeletal injuries, relieving muscle pain, increasing blood circulation, and treating skin diseases, and accordingly, an LED thermal phototherapy device that irradiates LED light has been developed and commercialized for humans.

However, although LED light is effective for treating musculoskeletal injuries of not only humans but also companion animals, relieving muscle pain, increasing blood circulation, and treating skin diseases, LED thermal phototherapy devices for companion animals have not been developed or are insignificant.
