What is really causing your horse's soreness?
There are a wide variety of reasons your horse could be experiencing soreness from joint inflammation, cartilage damage, or soft tissue damage.
Understanding the source of your horse discomfort is the first step to helping not only relive pain but to target the root cause.
Our horses are constantly under stress, whether they are playing in the pasture, performing or experiencing an injury resulting in damage to the joint or soft tissue. Chinese herbs play an excellent role in helping to aid the healing.
While NSAIDS, Joint Injections or other therapies have their place, often time these are only being treated at a surface level. It is important to understand if your horse is experiencing inflammation in the joint, cartilage damage or if the supporting tissues are in spasm, strained or damaged that is causing there to be extra stress to the joint.
