ICE-VIBE Circulation Therapy Hock Boots
Set of 2
One Size
Prepare your horse's hocks before exercise or reduce inflammation, discomfort and bruising after exercise with the rechargeable ICE-VIBE Hock Boot. Designed to fit the contours of horses' hocks, this boot provides a gentle vibrating massage to increase circulation and prepare the joint for exercise when used without the cold packs. When used with cold packs after exercise, ICE-VIBE wraps maintain a slow level of blood flow via massage, which encourages healing, while they cool tissue and slow inflammation. ICE-VIBE wraps can also be used to help reduce existing inflammation by stimulating movement through the lymph system. Massage creates a similar effect to that of a horse moving about while grazing, making ICE-VIBE hocks boots perfect for horses on stall rest. Includes two ICE-VIBE Hock Boots, two cold packs, two batteries and one battery charger.
PREPARE: ICE-VIBE boots are rechargeable vibrating boots that boost circulation. Using the boots before you ride can assist you to prepare your horses legs for exercise in the stable, they do this by increasing blood flow to the tendons and ligaments making them more elastic, which can help reduce the risk of injury.
TREATMENT: It is important when looking after your horses legs to reduce soreness and swelling but encourage blood flow for healing. After exercise you can use the vibrating boots with the inner cold packs creating cold circulation, this cools the legs reducing soreness whilst maintaining blood flow so you can assist the healing process.
REPAIR: The ICE-VIBE boots are on an automatic timer, this allows you to assist your horse to repair wear and tear whilst in the stable or out in the field, both before and after exercise. Do not use on fractures or infections.
If your horse has sensitive legs, especially horses with white socks that may be clipped, we recommend leaving the cold packs out of the freezer for 5 mins before use or use them from a refrigerator. Alternatively use a thin wrap on your horses legs before applying the cold packs.
ICE-VIBE is set at the optimum settings for different treatments.
Level 1 - Treatment of soreness & swelling. Use with or without cold pack.
Level 2 - Boosts circulation with or without cold pack. Can be used to prepare leg for exercise.
Level 3 - Stongest setting cold therapy after excercise to repair wear & tear.
