Magnetic Therapy

We use the Impulse Line Magnetic Rug and Magnetic Boots by Activo-Med to provide Pulsed Electromagentic Field Therapy. The rug also has inbuilt massage pads, which aid in relaxation and help reduce muscular wastage whilst on box rest.

This equipment can be used in a variety of applicatory fields such as in the treatment of...

  • Injuries and diseases
  • Skeletal troubles
  • Muscular system
  • Ligaments & tendons
  • Respiratory tract
  • Metabolic disorders
  • Blood circulation impediments

The Impulse Line Magnetic Boots are used to assist the healing of lower leg injuries, in particular tendons. They help to reduce inflammation and increase blood circulation to the injured area. Please see below for more detailed information regarding both the Magnetic/ Massage Rug and Boots.

Hydrotherapy Spa

Hydro SpaThe Equine Therapeutic Spa was developed in Australia and is specifically designed to treat lower leg conditions in horses.

The Spa uses a combination of chilled salt water (maintained at between 2 and 4 degrees Centigrade) together with powerful aeration to provide massage in a high-salinity environment.

Clinical studies in Australia have shown the Spa to be of benefit in the treatment of lower leg injuries, which have responded more quickly following a course of treatment in the Spa.
