Equilibrium Therapy Magnetic Boots

[jenz87]

Hi everyone ive been reading up on the magnetic boots for horses and so far contradicting views as always!!
My mare has stiff hocks and i thought they would be worth a go really, alot of people seem to have seen positive improvements.

However, there is a cheaper hock boot alternative on ebay, any good?

Also heard that it doesnt matter where the magnets are located (ie hock boot or leg wraps) but other boots seem to mention specific magnet targetting??


very confused so all opinions greatfully recieved

Thanks

It doesn't matter whether magnets are on the hock, the head or on the muck heap, they are still going to have no effect on stiff hocks. Don't waste your money.

I was under the impression that there is no usable energy from a static magnet, therefore they have zero effect. Pulsed electromagnetic therapy, I believe, is a different kettle of fish and does have therapeutic effects
