Box Rest & Stable Recovery Support for Paint Horses
"Prevent Muscle Atrophy & Improve Circulation During Confinement"
Extended period of box rest due to injury or post-surgery is incredibly detrimental to a Paint Horse's cardiovascular system and muscle mass. Without the ability to walk and naturally pump blood through the hooves and legs, circulation stagnates. A Hidez compression suit acts as a passive circulatory pump for the confined Paint Horse.
The patented graduated compression actively assists venous return, preventing "stocking up" (fluid swelling in the lower limbs) and dramatically reducing the risk of tying up (azoturia) due to stall confinement.
Furthermore, the suit acts as a muscular support system, gently hugging the Paint Horse's body to help minimize the rapid muscle atrophy commonly seen during prolonged stable rest, keeping your Paint Horse in better condition for when they are cleared to walk.
