Here’s definitive advice on what magnet therapy is, when
to use it on your horse, and how to tell if it’s working.
Magnet therapy can offer an attractive
alternative to using drugs. But does magnet
therapy work? And if so, what kind of problems
is it best suited for? Magnet therapy
essentially comes in two forms: static magnets
and electromagnetic fields. Here’s a
rundown of each type. But first, read up
on magnet therapy products, uses, and
cautions.
Magnetic Therapy Products
Magnetic therapy devices typically involve
static magnets sewn into a cover, such
as mesh blankets, or wraps for the knees,
hocks, lower legs, fetlocks alone or pastern
alone. Magnets for use on the hoof sole are
also available. Some leg products feature
flexible, self-adhesive magnetic strips. Wraps
cost anywhere from under $100 to $200.
Pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF)
devices are available as blankets, leg/joint
wraps, and even as mats, for hoof treatments.
A treatment session is typically 30
to 60 minutes long.
Magnetic Knee Wrap
Magnetic therapy devices for horses are
available as mesh blankets for the body
with magnets sewn in, wraps for the
knees, hocks, lower legs, fetlocks alone
or wraps for the pastern area. DuSTy PERin PhOTOS
