Bioflow boots

[bexandspooky]

Has anyone used these for their horse, and if so - did you get any success?

Starting to clutch at straws now - have moved on to alternative therapies!!

I use Bioflow on my two older horses and they definitely help decrease stiffness and keep laminitis at bay so it worth giving them a try. Dont knock 'alternatives' till you've given them try, you may just be surprised!! good luck

Thanks horseyhirst!

I was only joking about the 'alternatives' - when desparate, I turn to humour rather then dispair!

They are great. I also use magnotherapy stable boots at night when he is stabled over winter.

My horse has bone spavin and split his DDFT last year and I am convinced they make a difference. He is less stiff and has less swelling in his windgalls. Thumbs up from me

I have used them for merlins arthritic fetlock...

They seemed to help, although he also started on joint suppliments and danilon at the same time.... oh and also had shock therapy, Irap and Tildren

But cant use them now as he is out 24/7.

They did make his feathers curly too..... but since stopping using them they have gone straight again....

 

[hellybelly6]

Oh thats interesting about curly feathers, my horse has those too now.

I use them but I'm not convinced of any difference they make. They do seem prevent her fetlocks filling over night but that could be more becuase of the small amount of pressure they apply than the magnets themselves. I intend on bandaging this winter to see if there is any difference in stiffness etc

I have used both Bioflow work boots and Stable wraps for about 6 years (on and off that is) and they 100% definitly made a difference to Gully.

We have used them on two of ours, both old ladies and they did seem to make a big difference to one short term and made the other one more comfortable long term.

 

[kombikids]

they work on one ofmy horses windgallsbut not the other
wierd!

 

[devonruby]

hi i have used bioflow on two different horses with different problems.one horse was writtenoff but she ended up eventing to novice and the only thing i did was use bio flow boots at night rate them highly

I use them on my 33yo overnight, he also has Equiflex and devils claw - he can still scratch his ears with his hind hooves so I guess something's working!

 

[bexandspooky]

Thank you all, may just have to bite the bullit and buy! Spooks is also on equiflex, but seems to be falling apart around me at the moment. It is so sad to see him getting old.
