THERAPIES
Functional Electrical Muscle Stimulator – FES therapy is an exceptional therapy for muscle health. Many horses that are having performance issues as well as injuries benefit from FES therapy. FES helps stimulate deep muscles and encourages healthy muscle function. FES is great for relieving deep muscle spasms as well as back/neck pain. http://www.equinew.com
CRYOTHERAPY – Also known as cold therapy, Eclipses’ Cryo device administers a high pressure, dry cold of -110 degree F. The treatments are quick and efficient. This state of the art cryotherapy is one of the best ways to relieve inflammation, relieve pain and decrease healing time. Our cryo unit is developed to treat every part of the horses body, including stifles, back, necks and hooves.
Whole body vibration therapy is a great way to increase bone density as well as increase circulation. Vibration therapy is good for hoof problems, as it increases circulation in the hoof which increases hoof growth. Originally designed for astronauts to help with bone health, the equine designed platform has shown to help with bone density as well as several other issues.
Pegasus Therapeutic Laser – Our 15 watt, Class IV therapeutic laser is one of the most powerful lasers available today. Laser therapy is quickly becoming one of the most sought after therapeutic modalities because is it effective for a wide range of problems. Laser therapy decreases pain and inflammation as well as increases healing in tissues. Laser therapy has shown to decrease healing time by 40%. Laser therapy heals “better” with less proud flesh, scar tissue and better fiber alignment. http://www.litecure.com
I have been very impressed with the level of knowledge, horsemanship and outcome of cases I have seen with horses referred to Eclipse for rehab. Each horse has a carefully thought out program and excellent integration of whatever modality best suited to the case. Angie and Mike also are great at bringing in different practitioners and work well with everyone as a team for the horse.
