Navicular, Abscesses, Fractures Oh My!

EquiTread: Revolutionizing Equine Rehabilitation and Pain Management

Lameness in horses, a common concern for owners and trainers, can arise from various conditions including arthritis, navicular syndrome, abscesses, ligament injuries, osteoarthritis, laminitis, contracted tendons, and fractures. These conditions can cause significant pain, limit mobility, and hinder performance.

EquiTread's innovative water therapy offers a transformative solution for managing and rehabilitating horses suffering from these debilitating conditions. By harnessing the unique properties of water, EquiTread provides a safe, effective, and drug-free approach to pain relief, recovery, and improved performance.

How EquiTread Benefits Horses with Lameness:

  • Reduced Pain & Inflammation: The buoyancy of water significantly decreases weight-bearing on joints and limbs, alleviating pain and reducing inflammation associated with arthritis, osteoarthritis, laminitis, and soft tissue injuries.

  • Improved Range of Motion: Water resistance encourages gentle stretching and increased flexibility, helping horses with contracted tendons, navicular syndrome, and other mobility-limiting conditions regain their range of motion.

  • Enhanced Circulation: Hydrostatic pressure promotes blood flow and lymphatic drainage, accelerating healing of ligament injuries, fractures, and abscesses.

  • Muscle Strengthening & Conditioning: Controlled exercise in water builds strength and improves muscle tone, crucial for rehabilitation and preventing future injuries.

  • Customized Treatment Plans: Water depth, temperature, and treadmill speed can be adjusted to meet the specific needs of each horse and condition, ensuring a safe and effective recovery program.
