During Intense Exercise, Micro Trauma To Capillaries, Tendons And Ligaments Can Occur.

In Case Of Severe Injuries Where Hyperextension Of The Fetlock Has Occurred, Ice Therapy Is Required And You Can Use Thermoboot In 20-30Min Sessions 4 Or More Times A Day. The Initial Stages Of Injuries Are Critical So The Sooner They Can Be Applied, The Better. In Such Severe Cases, The Continued Use Of Cold Therapy Together With A Controlled Exercise Programme Is Essential To Recovery And Speeds Up The Rehabilitation Process.Note: Always Use Cold Therapy In Combination With Veterinary Advice. If More Severe Cases Of Symptoms Persist, Consult Your Vet Immediately.Heat Therapy:Heat Therapy Is Ideal For Supporting Blood Flow To A Specific Body Area, Eliminating Residual Inflammation, Fostering Nutrient Flow And, Therefore, Healing. Heat Can Also Be Useful Before Exercise And For Horses Suffering From Arthritis. Application Of Heat Can Increase Soft Tissue Elasticity, Flexibility, And Suppleness Of Muscles During Exercise. Heat Also Acts As A Temporary Analgesic, Reducing Pain. Heat Should Be Gradually Introduced To Your Horse Recovery Regime, After Injury. Too Much Heat Too Soon Can Cause Haemorrhage. In Case Of Swelling Issues, Please Only Apply Heat 24 Hours After No Increase In Swelling Has Been Observed. Alternation Between Heat And Cold Therapies, Gradually Increasing The Time Heat Is Used And Decreasing Cold Therapy Usage Per Session, Will Allow The Transition To Heat Therapy-Only Usage.
