Lameness Recovery in Half the Time
Overcome Equine Lameness with EquiTread: A Targeted Approach to Rehabilitation and Recovery
Lameness, a common and often debilitating condition in horses, manifests as an abnormal gait or stance due to pain,mechanical restrictions, or neuromuscular dysfunction. Whether your horse is experiencing weight-bearing or non-weight-bearing lameness, EquiTread's water therapy offers a targeted and effective solution.
Precisely Addressing Lameness with EquiTread:
Pinpoint the Source: Identify the root cause of lameness, whether it's pain, mechanical limitations, or a combination, through careful observation of head nods, sacral rises, and gait abnormalities.
Alleviate Pain: The buoyancy of water reduces stress on joints and limbs, providing immediate pain relief and allowing for comfortable movement during rehabilitation.
Restore Mobility: Gentle water resistance and customizable workouts improve range of motion, flexibility, and muscle strength, gradually restoring normal gait patterns.
Accelerate Healing: Enhanced circulation and reduced inflammation promote faster tissue repair and recovery from injuries.
Prevent Secondary Lameness: EquiTread's controlled environment helps prevent compensatory lameness in other limbs, ensuring a balanced and complete recovery.
Tailored Therapy for Optimal Results:
EquiTread's water therapy is adaptable to various lameness causes and severities. By adjusting water depth, temperature, and treadmill speed, we create personalized treatment plans that target your horse's specific needs, promoting optimal healing and long-term soundness.
Addressing Lameness Risk Factors:
EquiTread is also invaluable for horses predisposed to lameness due to factors like:
Physical Immaturity: Young or underdeveloped horses can benefit from low-impact exercise to build strength and coordination without excessive strain.
Conformation Issues: Water therapy can help compensate for conformational challenges and reduce stress on vulnerable areas.
Repetitive Stress: Performance horses experiencing repetitive strain injuries can find relief and improved resilience through EquiTread's targeted conditioning.
