NovoTHOR Testimonial: Caroline Howard, neuropathy
Caroline Howard had been suffering weird skin burning symptoms on her lower legs. She had numerous tests which eventually determined her condition was neuropathy which there is no cure for.
After some research, Caroline found out about NovoTHOR in her area at The Osteopathic Practice. She used it for 20 minutes and found it was so relaxing and she felt so much better. One of the symptoms of her condition was getting really mottled skin but NovoTHOR really helped with that too. Caroline now plans to use NovoTHOR as a lifelong thing to manage her symptoms.

Horse treated for a bad leg injury with THOR Photobiomodulation
We received these 2 videos (a Before and After) and this amazing story below from our THOR customer who was referred to treat a horse with a bad leg injury. She was considered a “last chance” horse meaning a veterinarian couldn’t help her and surgery was too risky. She had been unable to leave her stall for months. After our customer administered a couple of PBM treatments, the horse was trotting again… within 6 days! She is now being ridden again and won a recent competition.
Full story on the horse.
The condition was not neurological, it was due to two incidents of the horse being kicked by another horse. The second time that he was injured, he was kicked in the right shoulder and the right stifle and a few other places the vet was not aware of.
The injuries were severe enough to warrant surgery on the stifle however, they were unable to do any type of surgery due to the body condition of the horse and the severe muscle deterioration.
I started treating the horse via vet recommendation, two months after the most recent incident. I believe the initial incident was 2 to 4 months before this last injury. Essentially 4 to 6 months of the horse not being able to walk and being on stall rest.
The vet missed an abscess in the hamstring area – draining through an open wound in the stifle location. It was only found due to healing injuries inside to outside – thus, moving the abcess out of another injury site to a wound opening.
Via vet observing the abscess after it was located – I was able to close the wound after the abscess was drained and no concern of infection present (this is all within the time frame dates).
The horse went on to compete right away. This is a horse that ended up being listed for sale, not because of any injury or lameness associated with the initial injuries (she sells horses frequently). So, I do not know how the horse is doing at this time. I do know that he was sound enough to run barrels (horse event), and be ridden hard.
It should be noted, the horse did not undergo any type of surgery under the last owner.
