An increase or decrease in blood flow or circulation in the body can help benefit or hinder the heart and every other system within the body. There is not a single part that does not require fresh new blood to remain healthy. Increased blood circulation improves oxygen rich blood flow to extremities. Your horse is an athlete and therefore requires good circulation to achieve peak performance and optimised muscle tone. Additionally, circulation enhances recovery from work or injury, oxygenates the blood, reduces swelling and joint discomfort prevents lactic acid build-up and the accumulation of toxins. Equissage CVT improves blood flow while also helping remove toxins via the lymphatic system.
Frequently asked questions
How Can Equissage® Help?
Equissage® is made in the same purpose-built facility as Niagara Therapy products. All Niagara products are listed on the Australian Register of Therapeutic Goods (ARTG) and with Medsafe in NZ. This means you can be confident that clinical trials have been conducted to prove the benefits. An Equissage® EDGE System gives you access to quality medical grade equipment that is used by professionals and riders of all levels. Having your own therapy system on hand daily gives you greater control of your horse’s health and performance needs. CVT is safe, drug-free, non-invasive treatment technology that is easy to use and most importantly…IT WORKS!
How Often Should I Use My Equissage® Equipment?
Under normal conditions you may use Equissage® daily. We recommend at a minimum, every day that you ride. This is a maintenance strategy to address warm-up or warm-downs to mitigate lactic acid build-up. We recommend increasing the treatment schedule to twice daily when your horse is injured or recovering. As a guideline a 20 minute Equissage® treatment will have residual benefits for 5-8 hours.
