Healing Soft Tissue and Muscle Injuries in Equines: A Comprehensive Approach

By Gladiator Equine

November 16, 2023

Soft tissue and muscle injuries are common setbacks in the equine world, affecting both competitive and amateur riders and their horses. Addressing these injuries with meticulous care is crucial for the well-being and optimal performance of horses. 

At Gladiator Equine, we take a multifaceted approach to healing soft tissue and muscle injuries in equines, focusing on pain reduction, facilitated movement, and enhanced blood flow. Our Fetlock Wrap, with its patented far infrared (FIR) therapy, can be a revolutionary tool in accelerating the healing process.

Healing Soft Tissue and Muscle Injuries

Soft tissue and muscle injuries in horses require a comprehensive approach to healing, involving various strategies to create an environment conducive to recovery. Here’s a closer look at how these injuries are addressed:

  • Pain Reduction: Managing pain is the first step in addressing soft tissue and muscle injuries. Pain reduction is crucial for the comfort of the horse and facilitates the initiation of the healing process. If the horse is constantly moving and acting out in pain, they risk making their injury worse. Reducing their pain will allow them to heal and stay calm.
  • Facilitated Movement: Controlled and gentle movement is essential to prevent stiffness and promote blood flow to the injured area. This will aid in the healing of tissues and muscles.
  • Increased Blood Flow: Enhanced circulation to the injured tissues is vital. It ensures the optimal delivery of nutrients and oxygen, which are crucial for tissue repair and regeneration.
  • Optimal Environment: Creating a proper environment involves a combination of rest, nutrition, and targeted therapies to support the healing of injured muscles and soft tissues.

Far Infrared Technology: Enhancing Soft Tissue Healing

Far infrared technology is renowned for its ability to stimulate blood circulation and cellular activity. It emits infrared rays that penetrate deep into the tissues, promoting increased blood flow and reducing inflammation. 

This technology can be instrumental in creating an optimal healing environment, ensuring the efficient delivery of nutrients and oxygen to the injured areas, and accelerating the repair and regeneration of tissues.

Gladiator Equine’s Fetlock Wrap: Accelerating Recovery

Gladiator Equine’s Fetlock Wrap is designed to harness the benefits of far infrared technology to expedite the healing of soft tissue and muscle injuries. When applied, the Fetlock Wrap emits infrared rays, enhancing blood circulation to the injured areas and offering the following benefits:

  • Swift Healing: The enhanced blood flow accelerates the healing and regeneration of injured tissues.
  • Pain and Inflammation Reduction: The anti-inflammatory properties of FIR therapy help in alleviating pain and reducing inflammation in the affected areas.
  • Optimized Recovery Environment: The Fetlock Wrap ensures the creation of an environment rich in oxygen and nutrients, which is essential for optimal recovery.

FIR technology emits infrared rays that penetrate deep into the tissues, stimulating cellular activity and enhancing blood circulation. This interaction at the cellular level increases the necessary signal pathways, which are crucial for accelerating the healing process. It ensures the optimal delivery of nutrients and oxygen to the injured areas, promoting repair and regeneration of tissues, and reducing inflammation and pain.

Gladiator Equine’s Innovative Approach: Non-Invasive Healing with Fetlock Wraps

Gladiator Equine stands at the forefront of equine care with its innovative, non-invasive, and non-powered Fetlock Wraps. These wraps are meticulously designed to be worn throughout the day, leveraging the healing potential inherent in the horse’s own movements to facilitate recovery and healing of soft tissue and muscle injuries.

All-Day Wear: Maximizing Healing Potential

The non-invasive nature of Gladiator Equine’s Fetlock Wraps allows them to be worn all day, harnessing the healing ability of the horse’s own movements. This continuous wear creates a sustained healing environment, maximizing the benefits of FIR technology. The longer the wrap is on, the quicker the healing results, making it a practical and efficient solution for equine soft tissue and muscle injuries.
