- A Great Alternative to Drugs and Their Side Effects
- A Successful Alternative To Surgery as a treatment for horse injuries
- Requires No Sedation, Medication or Anesthesia – one of the few horse injury treatments that require no drugs of any kind
- A Quick Out-Patient Treatment For Horse Injuries
- Available On-Site With Mobile Shock Wave Units
- Virtually No Side Effects – which can’t be said for most treatments
- A Complete Course Of Treatment In A Few Sessions (the average treatment for horse injuries is completed in 3-5 sessions)
- A Cost Saving Treatment For Horse Injuries
Equine shock wave not only offers many benefits to horses and their owners for the treatment for horse injuries, but is also a great low-cost investment for equine veterinarians and their practices. Many facilities invest in technology and diagnostic equipment to identify musculoskeletal and orthopedic disorders, but few can offer a beneficial therapeutic solution after the diagnosis. Most only offer pharmaceuticals that may result in adverse side effects or recommend surgical solutions. Neither of these options, however, can offer the safe, rapid and effective clinical outcomes of ESWT as a treatment for horse injuries. For most equine patients, ESWT provides fast, reliable and effective treatment for horse injuries and for horses suffering from chronic pain.
