The Benefits of Copper Therapy for Horses
Whether your horse is on a busy competition schedule or enjoying a life of leisure, using copper therapy for horses is a great and affordable way to reduce muscle stiffness, soreness, swelling, and inflammation, speed up recovery time, and aid in the rehabilitation time for muscle, ligament, and tendon injuries.
Copper therapy uses copper threads woven into the fabric of our Equine Copper Therapy items, such as the Quick Wraps or Hock Wraps, which can be used on your horse’s legs with easy-to-use hook and loop closures. These are great for horses that tend to stock up in the stall, trailering and reducing stiffness in joints. The Equine Copper slicker sheets and slicker hoods can give your horse the benefits of Copper Therapy from nose to tail!
