Hyperbaric Chamber

-Hyperbaric oxygen therapy increases the oxygen levels in the horses body 12-15 times the normal amount.
-The increased pressure causes the oxygen to dissolve into the plasma, which allows it to diffuse into the tissue better. 
-This elevated oxygen saturation stimulates the turnover of cells, increases blood supply, kills bacteria, enhances the effects of antibiotics, reduces swelling, salvages damaged tissue and bone, stimulates collagen production and improves skin growth.

Cold Saltwater Leg Spa

- Immediate analgesic relief- pain relief due to the numbing effect of the 35 degree temperature salt water.
- Eliminates heat in the legs by closing down the capillaries in the legs and nearly halting circulation.
- The extremely high salt concentration in the water acts as a poultice to draw out inflammation and infection from the wound.
- After the spa treatment is complete the legs will stay cold for up to 4 hours- after coming out of the leg spa the circulatory systems sends maximum blood flow to warm up the legs, increasing oxygenation to the damaged areas and speeding up the healing process

Pegasus Laser

- Laser therapy helps reduce the pain associated with an injury.
- Reduces swelling/ inflammation and speeds tissue repair, by stimulating vasodilatation which results in nutrients and oxygen to the injured area.
P3 – Electromagnetic Pulse Therapy
- Electromagnetic waves stimulate deep muscle contraction creating a massaging effect and resulting in pain relief and muscle relaxation
- Helps relieve muscle spasms
- Increases circulation and oxygenation to muscle tissue
- Improves performance

Zamar · cold and/or hot dry compression therapy

 -Cold reduces swelling, pain, and heat through temperature and compression without wetting the legs or feet
-good for injuries where the feet need to remain dry or where stitches are involved 
-can be applied over medications or light dressing
-Heat therapy supports the final stages of healing when the body is actively replacing cells and repairing tissue by increasing circulation and oxygenation to the cells
