Horses, like any athletes, are prone to injuries and inflammation, particularly in their joints and soft tissues.
Whether it’s the effects of arthritis, old scar tissue, or a new soft tissue injury, managing these conditions can be challenging. That’s where “Recover” comes in—a compress designed to help reduce inflammation, support tissue recovery, and improve mobility in horses. In this blog post, we’ll explore how Recover works, why it’s essential for injury management, and how to use it safely for optimal results.
What Is Recover?
Recover is specifically crafted to be used as a compact for targeted relief in areas of inflammation or injury. Unlike poultices or wound dressings, Recover is intended to be applied directly over affected areas and held in place with a bandage. Its purpose is to absorb deeply into the skin, targeting tissues and cells to aid in reducing inflammation, dissolving cysts, minimizing scar tissue, and promoting healing.
For best results, Recover is often paired with our companion formula, Repair. Together, they create a powerful duo for horses with chronic or acute inflammation, joint discomfort, or injury recovery needs.
Benefits of Recover
Recover is designed to offer multiple benefits, from relieving pain to encouraging faster recovery. Here’s how it can help your horse:
Reduce Inflammation and Swelling
Recover’s anti-inflammatory properties help to decrease swelling and inflammation, making it ideal for horses experiencing arthritis-related issues or acute injuries.
Break Down Cysts and Scar Tissue
Recover helps dissolve unwanted growths, such as cysts, and reduces scar tissue that may impede mobility, ensuring your horse’s body can heal and regenerate more effectively.
Promote Healing and Ease Joint Pain
By supporting the body's natural healing processes, Recover helps ease pain and encourages better joint function, enhancing comfort for horses with arthritis or old injuries.
Deep Absorption for Tissue and Cell Rejuvenation
The formula is designed to penetrate the skin and work on a cellular level, supporting tissue rejuvenation and boosting overall recovery.
Increase Joint Mobility
With its inflammation-reducing properties, Recover encourages more fluid joint movement, helping horses maintain their full range of motion.
Signs That Your Horse May Benefit from Recover
Not sure if Recover is right for your horse? Here are some common conditions where this formula may provide support:
Scar Tissue: Recover can help soften and reduce built-up scar tissue, which can limit flexibility and mobility.
Soft Tissue Injury: If your horse has a tendon, ligament, or muscle injury, Recover’s anti-inflammatory and healing properties may help speed up recovery.
Arthritis-Related Inflammation: For horses with arthritis, Recover can be applied to reduce inflammation in affected joints.
Bone Fractures or Spurs: Recover may help alleviate discomfort and reduce inflammation in horses with bone spurs or after healed fractures.
How to Use Recover
To get the maximum benefits, follow these steps when applying Recover to your horse:
Prepare a Compress: Use Recover as a compress by applying it to areas with old injuries, healed wounds, growths, or inflamed joints. It’s not intended for open wounds or sun-exposed areas.
Apply Directly: Recover should be applied topically to the area of concern. Gently massage it in or place a soaked compress on the area.
Wrap Securely: For best results, firmly wrap the compacted compress with a bandage to keep it in place. This will allow Recover to absorb into the skin for maximum effect.
Avoid Sun Exposure: After using Recover, be sure to wash off any residue thoroughly before exposing your horse to sunlight.
Use Regularly: For chronic issues, incorporate Recover into your regular care routine for sustained relief and healing support.
Pair Recover with Repair for Enhanced Healing
While Recover works well on its own, pairing it with our “Repair” formula can amplify results. Repair focuses on rebuilding tissues and nourishing cells for long-term recovery, creating a complete care solution for horses dealing with inflammation, injury, or arthritis.
Important Reminders
- Not for Open Wounds: Only use Recover on healed areas or closed injuries.
- Avoid Sun Exposure: Recover should be thoroughly rinsed off before allowing your horse to be out in direct sunlight, as the oil can increase skin sensitivity to UV rays.
By including Recover in your horse’s care routine, you’re providing an effective solution for managing inflammation, reducing scar tissue, and supporting recovery. This compact application offers targeted relief that allows your horse to regain mobility, comfort, and vitality.
