The
HydroHorse Submerged Treadmill Systems - a high tech
engineered combination of a treadmill, whirlpool, and swimming
pool, designed to aid in the therapeutic healing, strengthening,
conditioning, and training of all types of horses. In essence,
the horse is partially buoyant in a specially designed water
filled tank, which at the same time allows contact with the
treadmill. Unlike traditional swimming pool therapy, the horse
can exercise in a controlled environment, using its normal gait
and the same muscles are in use while exercising on the track
without undue stress or trauma.

Shockwave
Therapy - the cutting edge in equine lameness. Shock
Wave therapy is a non-invasive procedure and is successful where
conventional therapies fail. Shock Waves are not electrical but
they are high energy sound waves. These high energy sound waves
can easily pass through fluid filled structures like skin, fat,
and muscle. These waves do not pass through tendons, ligaments
or bone. When the sound waves hit these structures they “crash”
and release energy. The released energy penetrates the
surrounding tissue and increases blood flow to the area. This
stimulates various cells which are responsible for tissue repair
of the injured structures. Shock Wave not only promotes and
speeds up the healing process, but ultimately causes various
soft tissue injuries to heal more thoroughly with less fibrous
tissue accumulation.
Nutritional Supplementation
Individual
nutritional supplementation will be available. We have selected some
of the highest quality products available today. Together we can
help you make well-informed decisions regarding equine
supplementation.
