Description
Cold Compression therapy combines two standardized process. cryotherapy and compression therapy, into one superior and innovative option widely used in equine veterinarian practices and throughout the equine industry. Cold Compression therapy targets a specific injured area by applying either or dynamic pressure at the injury site. when paired with ice water, at a therapeutic temperature, the body's internal response increases and directs blood flow away from the extremities and toward the body's core. This process creates reduced inflammation and decreased pain.
Many equine vets that practice natural horse care finds substantial pain relief with a regimen of cryotherapy coupled with compression therapy without medication use. With a plethora of horse supplies available, such as liniments and horse supplements. it is vital to seek an equine veterinarian's advice for an optimal plan of care.
Cold Compression offers cryotherapy combined with therapeutic compression, that can be either constant or intermittent, resulting in the ultimate treatment option. With adaptable accessory splints, it is easy to target this treatment to a specific area and ultimately increase lymph fluid movement, reducing swelling and decreasing pain. Cold Compression is indicated for post-surgical therapy and pain management therapy.
