On Saturday I'm moving yards, from grass livery, to DIY.
Roo is currently going through vet treatment, she has old tears and scar tissue etc in her tendon sheaths on both front legs (only one proving an issue at the minute) and she may well go for surgery on it.
So I am planning on using magnets to help her recover (it certainly works on my knee, so I think it will help her too)

So I was looking at these

They aren't like what I've seen before, but it says she can wear them all night. I just wondered if anyone has used these ones before, and if so, where in them the magnets were? Did they help?
 
RG not quite like those but for a veteran on our yard (29 and still going strong and being placed at showing and dressage!) the owner uses magnetic boots and magnetic rug when he needs a bit of help getting the old legs and muscles warmed up/less stiff ahead of a lesson or competing. She thinks they do the trick.
 
Human magnetic bracelets claim to not matter where on the body the problem is, the magnet around the wrist will deal with whatever wherever.

So I wouldn't worry too much, especially as the chaps are going to be worn on the right legs.

:D

Edited to add: by the way, I have worn a magnetic bracelet and didn't think it did much for me; however mum swears by one and the elderly lab most definately benefited from wearing hers - she got swapped onto a "going out" collar for walks, and if we forgot to change it back within 24 hours she was much noticeably stiffer and lame.
