In the world of equestrian enthusiasts, there are few stories as inspiring as Blue's incredible road to recovery. This tale of resilience and healing begins on a fateful evening, January 31st, when Blue's life took a tragic turn. But through the unwavering dedication of his owner Melissa and the introduction of Phovia Light Therapy, this remarkable horse's story took a miraculous turn for the better.

The Accident

On that ill-fated evening, Blue was released from his paddock, unaware of the life-altering event that awaited him. In a horrifying twist of fate, he was struck by a truck, resulting in severe trauma to his chest, neck, and head. Adding to his ordeal, he suffered numerous minor scrapes and cuts, with fragments of glass embedded in his face. The most pressing concern was an extensive laceration on his chest, a gaping wound that left his sternum exposed and perilously close to penetrating his chest cavity. It was a grim and uncertain moment for both Blue and Melissa.

Discovering Phovia Light Therapy

In this challenging time, an old friend and Penn Vet sales representative, Terrie, came to the forefront. Terrie had been a longtime advocate of PEMF therapy and, upon hearing the news of Blue's accident, immediately reached out to offer assistance, suggesting the addition of Phovia Light Therapy to strengthen Blue's recovery. For Melissa, Phovia was an entirely new concept, a treatment option she had never encountered before, but she was willing to try anything to help Blue. The decision to introduce Phovia was a game-changer. The collaboration between the two therapies proved to be the key to Blue's astounding recovery.

The Healing Process

As Blue lay in the hospital, Melissa was given an estimated timeline of 4-6 months for the wound to fully heal. The medical team anticipated the need to remove necrotic tissue and combat the formation of proud flesh during this period. It was a daunting prospect, and Melissa wasn't quite sure what to expect.

Treating a wound of this magnitude was a complex endeavor in itself. Establishing a routine to monitor progress, identifying the most effective angles for treatment, and managing the extensive wound were all challenges that needed to be addressed. However, with each passing day, the process became more manageable, and the hope of recovery grew stronger.

In addition to Phovia Light Therapy, Blue also underwent daily Pulse PEMF therapy sessions. These sessions were tailored to address his chest wound while simultaneously alleviating the soreness that permeated his body due to the traumatic accident. Topically, a combination of Dermagel and Dermagel spray, along with daily cold hosing, was employed to cleanse and nurture the wound.

In an astonishing turn of events, Blue's once-harrowing wound was fully closed in less than 90 days, thanks to the combined efforts of Phovia Light Therapy and Pulse PEMF therapy. The transformative power of these therapies, coupled with the unwavering dedication of Melissa and the support of friends like Terrie, had defied all odds and given Blue a second chance at life.

Blue's journey from the depths of trauma to complete recovery is a testament to the remarkable healing potential of Phovia Light Therapy and Pulse PEMF therapy. It serves as an inspiring reminder that, even in the face of the most daunting challenges, hope and innovative treatments can lead to extraordinary outcomes. Blue's story is a beacon of light, illuminating the path towards healing and resilience in the equestrian world and beyond.
