Who here uses magnetic therapy on their horses? For what problems do you use them and how often/for how long?
My little man has a very bad tendon injury and stabled 24/7 currently. He has to be bandaged and not yet allowed out to walk in hand (fingers crossed next scan shows some improvement!). During treatment my vet pointed out mild ringbone in his hind left and as of yet (touch wood) not causing issues. But I am aware of it. He also has bad feet, they are v. brittle. After a series of 3 absesses in 6 months when I got him, his feet have regrown and are looking quite alright. So he has a few issues at the moment :redface:
I got some magnetic over-reach boots to help his feet and the growth of some foot. I was thinknig along the lines of maybe getting some wraps for the ringbone/tendon injury as a semi preventative to try and hold the ringbone as much as possible.
How long can I put them on for? I know they're not designed for 24/7 use, but what about over night, or just during a day - say 6-10 hours at a time? I saw someone on here use them for 10 minutes twice a day with benefits... are they really that effective?
