IceHorse COLD
therapy products:
In a world full of gels and gimmicks, flimflams and overpromises,
there is one cold therapy treatment that stands
above the rest.
IceHorse cold therapy wraps start colder, stay colder
longer and cools stressed limbs better. Its Cold Capsule
™ ice packs last three times longer than gels. And,
to hold the cold packs against the tissues, IceHorse uses
compression-tight wrap material made of heat releasing
quadraspan, not neoprene. Further, IceHorse is backed
by scientific testing conducted by acknowledged leading
veterinarians that proves IceHorse’s dry cryotherapy
really works.
20 minutes of gel treatment only makes YOU feel better.
If you’re using a gel-pack to cool your horse, you’re in for
a shocking surprise. Gels only stay cold for 20 minutes or
so, which is not long enough to affect real healing in your
horse’s legs. Even if you leave them on longer, they’ve
warmed up too much to do much good.
60 minutes of IceHorse will make YOUR HORSE better. Ice-
Horse is very different. IceHorse cold therapy wraps start
colder, stay colder longer and cools stressed limbs better.
Tested against many of the leading brands, its Cold
Capsule™ ice packs last three times longer than gels.
To hold the cold packs against the tissues, IceHorse uses
compression-tight wrap material made of heat releasing
quadraspan, not neoprene.
Stall toys are great
boredom breakers.

and not just two, as well as routine patterns and times of
stall cleaning should be decided upon. Even healthy horses
react to change and chaos negatively and those changes
can and most likely will result in stress.
8. If short walks are allowed, take the horse out as many
times as instructed. Watch the clock…… too many times a
5 minute prescribed walk turns into a 20 minute hike. Flat,
stable, rock free ground should be selected and only with
veterinary approval should hilly terrain be used. There is a
reason why certain time limits and terrain are prescribed.
Overdoing it can do great harm to the injury and even
push the injury past fixable and never able to be repaired.
Set the timer on your smart phone so there is no excuse
for over exercising. The veterinarian may even allow some
hand grazing.
9. If all else fails, ask your veterinarian about possible calming
medication and/or supplements. Make sure they do
not interact negatively with what other medicines are being
given already before you try any herbal or OTC calming
agents.
IN CONCLUSION
Over the years I have stall rested horses of many temperaments
and conditions. They have ranged from a month
to nearly a year in length. Usually, a combination of the
above suggestions gets the horse through the mental
stresses and as long as the veterinary directives are
obeyed to the “T”. People ask me why I have such good
results in my cases. The answer is simple. FOLLOW VETERINARY
INSTRUCTIONS and NO SHORTCUTS. Be determined
and be strong and the ending will have the best chance
of success.
