Hock & Knee: The Cold Compression Hock and Knee boot has ice blankets embedded inside a pillow of soft foam. Keeping the heat and swelling out promotes recovery and prevents soreness. Flowboot targets the superficial digital flexor tendon and proximal sesamoid area, which is where most problems occur. Twenty minutes of even pressure without cutting off the blood flow to the foot, ideal therapy post strenuous work. Wraps are 6 inches wide making it easy to apply. Tissue reaches its lowest temperature faster and the tissue maintains it is cool even after treatment ends. Cold compression is significantly colder than ice alone due to improved skin contact and increased tissue density. The open cell foam will absorb water, which can be frozen or submersed in ice water. It is an easy, safe, and effective way of providing cold compression. Wraps included in price.Īnkle: FlowBoot intended for cold therapy is three times the foam in comparison to the performance boot. NOT TO BE USED AS A SUBSTITUTE FOR VETERINARY ATTENTION.All of our Horse Compression Ice Boots are sold in pairs. IF SYMPTOMS OF INJURY PERSIST CONSULT YOUR VET.

It is important to keep the boot saturated during use.Įnsure your boots are securely closed for drying. Suitable for use in the stable & during turnout for 2-4 hours per useīoots must be soaked in cold water for 5-8 minutes (maximum 30 minutes*), before use ensuring thorough saturation.Secure Velcro fastening creates compression with silicone grip ends for ease of fitting.Aids tissue recovery after strenuous exercise.3D ducted sports mesh for air circulation.Soak in water for 5-8 minutes to activate (maximum 30 minutes*).Advanced water absorption technology provides cooling.High humidity (90%) will diminish the fabrics ability for the product to provide cooling. Ensure dry spots are checked for at regular intervals – particularly on hot days. The boot can be in use during re-activation (left on the leg). If the boots go to body temperature, simply add cold water to reactivate. Store in an airtight box or bag once dry for optimum wear. *Do not leave to soak excessively – maximum 30 minutes. Water of an ambient temperature may also be used as the fabric technology will lower the temperature. Under no circumstances should the boot be applied in its dry state. We recommend soaking in cold water for 5-8 minutes before applying to the leg. Legs should be clean before applying the boots. Boots can be worn in the stable or during turnout. We recommend using the boots for no longer than 2-4 hours per use.

The adjustable Velcro straps create compression to further aid recovery. Once saturated the cold water fabric is activated and provides a cold cushioned layer anatomically shaped to your horse’s leg. The 3D sports mesh outer allows a constant flow of air to reach the cold water material which prolongs the cooling effect of the boots. The air is the element that keeps the fabric cool once it has been activated by water. The boot has been engineered to provide uniform cooling without restricting movement. The advanced formulation releases energy over time to provide temperatures that are 6-12° cooler than ambient temperature. The material uses a unique chemistry to achieve rapid water absorption. The advanced cold water fabric has been developed as part of our Air Tech range, the lining is of medical-grade providing hypo-allergenic and antibacterial properties. Simply soak in water for 5-8 minutes (maximum 30 minutes*), no need for ice or refrigeration.Ī revolution in cooling technology aided recovery activated by moisture absorption and maintained by exposure to airflow delivered via the 3D ducted mesh. The practical solution for leg cooling after strenuous exercise. Advanced, medical grade fabrics have been used to engineer this innovative cold water compression boot.
