Our saltwater spa is an excellent source of removing heat and inflammation while providing pain reduction. The saltwater inhibits enzyme degeneration in injured tendons, and the salt solution acts as a poultice with heat reduction and natural healing. The cryo-therapy, in combination with the aeration benefits, is especially useful in post session workouts, because while the horse warms back up the blood flow increases to the limbs and continues to promote healing.

Aqua Icelander
Our water treadmill is an intricate part to our rehabilitation and fitness program. This machine focuses on power and endurance training without the weight of the rider. We are able to focus and train specific muscle groups. Our equine athletes are getting the benefits of power training without the high pressure on their tendons and skeleton. By moving against the water horses are able to automatically use more of their back and hind end muscles, which promotes a stronger top line while encouraging more balance and coordination in all movements. By using this form of water training we are able to keep the horses mind fresh and the body loose, while we focus on strengthening and conditioning.

The Vibration Plate
The vibration plate is a vertical vibrating surface that utilizes three-dimensional movement to evenly distribute on all four limbs. When we stand horses on the vibration plate, we are able to strengthen muscles, tendons, and ligaments without the wear and tear of riding. The vibration plate is an excellent way to increase blood circulation, increase healing of injuries and reduce rehabilitation time while helping remove lactic acid from muscles.
Solarium
The Solarium can be paired with our vibration plate or used by itself. The infra-red rays produce heat which enters the horse’s muscles and increases blood flow to promote healing. During this process we are able to bring oxygen to injured and sore tissue and speed up the healing time. The solarium is a great way to reduce strains on muscles, relieve sore and stiff muscles, and provide a valuable source of vitamin D.
Pulse PEMF
Pulsed Electromagnetic Fields Therapy is used to speed up the body’s natural recovery time. By using PEMF we are able to increase the horse’s natural energy while improving their athletic performance. This particular form of therapy speeds up recovery of muscle fatigue and discomfort, increases range of motion, and supports healthy joint and cartilage functions.
Free-Style Exerciser
While the horses are being exercised on the free style exerciser, they are in position that allows them to move freely while we are able to control the speed and direction. The exerciser allows the horse to move at a natural pace while relaxing and stretching their topline and increasing elasticity in their muscles while in a controlled environment. This is an excellent substitution when hand walking has been prescribed.
