Cold Salt Water Therapy
This therapy has been proven to dramatically improve many types of injuries and, in most cases, considerably shorten healing and rehabilitation time. More and more veterinarians are recommending this treatment for the prevention and rehabilitation of:
- Tendon and suspensory injuries
- Open wounds and Infections
- Arthritis, bucked shins, splints
- Joint inflammation
- Abscesses and bruised soles
Cold Salt Water Therapy involves a combination of significant factors:
- The water, kept at a constant 35° F has strong anti-inflammatory and analgesic effects and the adjustable water level allows the treatment of all 4 legs from the hocks and knees down.
- The high concentration of epsom and sea salts acts as an hypertonic poultice to effectively relieve soreness and swelling.
- The jet's turbulence creates a whirlpool effect and increases the oxygen content of the water.
8-Horse Eurocizer
The 80 ft 8-Horse walker allows horses to freely exercise between panels. The footing of washed masonry sand on a firm base promotes increased bone density and strength of soft tissues (tendons, ligaments and joint capsules) as well as proprioceptive re-education to get the horses better prepared for return to full training.
Equi Vibe
Whole body virbration is a form of biomechanical stimulation that increases blood circulation and prevents loss of bone density. Ideally suited to reduce the effects of confinement on performance horses.
Underwater Treadmill
A high-tech combination underwater treadmill and whirlpool. The temperature controlled water displaces up to 60% of the horse's body weight while allowing for full range of motion at variable speeds.
This is an excellent treatment for conditioning with minimal concussion to joints and ligaments as well as rehabilitation for injury or post surgery in a very controlled environment on an even and consistent surface (ie. the belt of the treadmill).
