Incrediwear Circulation Standing Wrap Therapeutisch black

Passive Recovery - Wrap the horse's legs with Circulation Standing Wraps after working with your horse to reduce inflammation, speed recovery and help prevent injury. These are especially useful when the horse is standing at night, the horse will not move often in the barn, but the wrap will still both increase blood and lymphatic circulation and reduce "fat" legs in the morning and help keep the legs "tight" and "cool.

General guidelines: Incrediwear is a new "athletic" fabric that has been used in the human sports industry for over 6 years. Incrediwear is a germanium/carbon embedded fiber that is activated upon exposure to body heat by the release of a negative ion that triggers a mechanical increase in blood flow to the area combined with increased lymphatic drainage from the area, resulting in its unique properties. Incrediwear Equine has adapted these concepts into a new product line that targets the horse's distal leg. Briefly, when applied dry, the product increases bladder flow and promotes lymphatic drainage. When applied wet (particularly with warm or hot water), an endothermic reaction occurs, resulting in decreasing surface temperatures, creating an "ice bandage" effect. Applying these general principles, the product can be applied dry before exercise to increase blood flow and wet after exercise for the "icing" effect. All applications should be under the supervision and/or advice of your veterinarian. If your veterinarian is not familiar with Incrediwear Equine, have him contact the office for more information.

Some conditions amenable to treatment with Incrediwear Equine Products:

Tendinitis / Suspensory Desmitis -.

Both conditions can include inflammation, injury and/or degeneration of the tendon / ligament, usually involving the matrix to some degree. Incrediwear Equine Circulation work bandages worn at least one hour before work have shown to be effective in reducing pathological swelling that can limit the normal function of the tendon / ligament and lead to weakness of the structure. During the acute phases (pain when palpating the affected area), it is beneficial to wear the Incrediwear Equine Circulation Exercise Bandages wet as ice bandages for a minimum of one hour/day. In chronic cases, it may be beneficial to train the horse in dry Incrediwear Equine Circulation Exercise Bandages. Incrediwear Equine Circulation Standing Wraps can be used around the clock in the stable.

Inferior check ligament desmitis -.

This is a condition often associated with painful inflammation and possible adhesion formation between the inferior check ligament (ICL) and either the superficial digital flexor tendon (SDFT) or the deep digital flexor tendon (DDFT). Incrediwear Equine Circulation Standing Wraps or Circulation Exercise Bandages can be worn around the clock to reduce inflammation and prevent or treat adhesion formation, especially when the horse returns to work.

Annular Ligament Desmitis / Wind Puff -.

These conditions involving the fetlock area usually include inflammation and possible adhesions in the case of the annular ligament. Incrediwear Equine Circulation Standing Wraps or Circulation Exercise Bandages can be worn around the clock to reduce inflammation and prevent or treat adhesion formation, especially when the horse returns to work.

Bucked Shins / Splints / Big Legs overnight-.

Both conditions involve inflammation of the bone and/or periosteum. Incrediwear Equine Standing Wraps or Circulation Exercise Bandages can be worn around the clock to reduce inflammation and promote bone remodeling. During the acute phases (pain when palpating the affected area), it would be beneficial to wear the Incrediwear Equine Therapeutic wraps wet as ice bandages for at least one hour/day.

Green Osselots -.

This is a condition involving generalized inflammation of the fetlock joint of young racehorses, especially at the insertion of the joint capsule into the cannon bone. Incrediwear Equine Circulation Exercise Bandages can be worn wet or dry to reduce inflammation in the acute phases.

Observe - This is a condition that usually affects the lymphatic drainage of the distal limb, resulting in an accumulation of "pitting edema" in the subcutaneous tissues of the limb. Incrediwear Equine Circulation Standing Wraps can be worn around the clock or Equine Circulation Exercise Bandages can be applied an hour before work or worn during exercise.

* In rare cases, a horse may become "overstimulated" by the increased blood flow and begin biting or tearing at the socks or bandages. In this case, the product should be removed, although it can be reapplied on a subsequent day or for a shorter period of time.
