The pioneer in science-based light therapy brings its engineering to a new wellness line for dogs

MIAMI, Sept. 16, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — Capillus, a leader in red light therapy, today announced its official expansion into the pet wellness category with the launch of two new wellness devices, the Capillus Pet Vest and the Capillus Pet Joint Wrap. Leveraging over 10 years of authority and U.S.-based engineering, Capillus addresses a major gap in the pet care market: non-invasive recovery and wellness products designed specifically for animals.

As pet owners increasingly prioritize proactive longevity, photobiomodulation (PBM) is emerging as a standard in veterinary health to help their furry family members stay active, and enjoy a better quality of life as they age. Research has found that red light therapy helped 81 percent of dogs with arthritis reduce their reliance on daily pain meds, and that dogs receiving targeted light therapy experience noticeable improvements in joint movement, stride, and flexibility for up to 90 days post-treatment.

“For over a decade, Capillus has delivered research-backed red light therapy to help people take control of how they heal and age,” said Domingo “Opi” Moreira, CEO of Capillus. “Red light wavelengths boost mitochondrial function in humans, making the decision to expand our technology to support our four-legged family members a natural evolution.”

Both new pet items utilize targeted red and near-infrared light wavelengths to promote relaxation, support circulation, aid muscle and joint comfort, and encourage your pet’s natural restorative processes.

The Pet Vest, which was designed to fit like an ergonomic harness across the chest, stomach, and back with two size options (medium and large) to accommodate various breeds, will retail for $299. The Pet Vest delivers targeted red light therapy simultaneously over the back and under the chest/belly area for full-body systemic support. The Pet Vest offers four light modes: steady, calm, recovery, and wellness; along with three light intensity levels of low, medium, and high, and is meant to be used for 20 minutes three to four times per week.

The Pet Joint Wrap, designed to wrap around leg and joint areas where deep-tissue stiffness and injury is common in larger dogs, will be available for $199. The Pet Joint Wrap is recommended for targeted joint support and natural body restoration.

The Capillus pet line will be available at Capillus.com at launch.
