Equine LTS Versatile Poll Cap 2.0: Advanced Triple Light Therapy for Your Horse

A Modern Approach to Equine Recovery and Relaxation

Light therapy is becoming one of the most popular non-invasive wellness tools for horses. Whether your horse is a high-performance athlete, a weekend trail companion, or an at home lawn ornament, supporting muscle recovery and reducing tension can make a huge difference in comfort and performance, and overall health & well-being.

The Equine LTS Triple Light Therapy Versatile Poll Cap 2.0 distributed by EquineLED is designed specifically to deliver targeted LED therapy to one of the most important areas of the horse’s body—the poll.

With advanced triple-wavelength light technology, this compact lightweight device helps promote relaxation, circulation, and tissue recovery in just a few minutes per session.

 


 

What Is the Versatile Poll Cap 2.0?

The Versatile Poll Cap 2.0 is a flexible LED therapy device designed to sit comfortably on the horse’s poll area, right behind the ears, but is also highly effective for the TMJ (TemporoMandibular Joint). Both these areas are where horses tend to get the most tightness from the bridle, but can also be due to trauma, dental issues, as well as degenerative issues like arthritis. 

                   

The device contains 46 high-power LEDs that emit three therapeutic wavelengths:

  • 🔵 450nm Blue light – supports skin healing and surface tissue

  • 🔴 660nm Red light – stimulates circulation and cellular activity

  • 🔥 850nm Near-infrared light – penetrates deeper into muscles and joints

These wavelengths work together to support muscle relaxation, improved blood flow, and cellular recovery

Even better, treatments are quick—typically 5–10 minutes per session—making it easy to incorporate into your horse’s daily routine. 

 


 

Why the Poll Area Is So Important

The poll is one of the most sensitive and influential areas in a horse’s body. Tension here can impact:

  • Head carriage

  • Neck flexibility

  • Softness in the bridle

  • Overall relaxation

  • Willingness to accept contact

When tension builds in this area, it can affect the horse’s entire topline and movement. Targeted therapy at the poll can help horses become more relaxed and comfortable during training and everyday handling.

 


 

Key Features of the Versatile Poll Cap 2.0

Triple-Wavelength LED Therapy

Unlike many devices that use only red light, the Versatile Poll Cap combines blue, red, and infrared wavelengths to support tissues at multiple depths.

This layered approach helps promote:

  • Increased circulation

  • Reduced inflammation

  • Cellular energy production

  • Faster recovery from soreness or strain

 


 

Versatile Application

While designed for the poll & TMJ, the cap can also be used on several other areas of the horse’s body like:

  • Knees

  • Hocks

  • Fetlocks

  • Tendons and ligaments

  • Tight muscle areas

This makes it a multi-purpose therapy device for the entire horse.

 


 

Secure and Comfortable Fit

The device attaches easily using an elastic velcro strap, allowing it to be secured to a halter or wrapped around other parts of the body.

The lightweight design ensures horses remain comfortable during therapy sessions.

            

 

Quick and Convenient Treatments

One of the biggest advantages of LED therapy is how fast and easy treatments are.

Many riders use the poll cap:

  • During grooming

  • While tacking up

  • After riding

  • During rehabilitation sessions

Because sessions are short, they can be easily integrated into everyday barn routines.

 


 

Benefits of LED Light Therapy for Horses

LED light therapy—also known as photobiomodulation—is widely used in both human and veterinary care.

Potential benefits include:

Increased circulation
Reduced inflammation
Faster muscle recovery
Support for soft tissue healing
Improved relaxation
