By this, I mean one of those tubs that fills up with ice cold water to increase circulation and help recovery on leg injuries.

Just a few questions,what was the treatment for, how long did it take and was it a one off or a series of treatments.Did it help?
And how expensive was it??

Considering it for my girl.
 
Yep saved my lad with suspensories.

Left him at the spa and he had 2 a day for 6 weeks - sound as a pound

Don't think it was mega expensive most of it was covered on insurance as my vet was happy to sign off on the treatment.

Every yard in newmarket practically has one

can recommend it

good luck
 
as above.You would have to leave the horse at the yard asthey would need it all the time, i know a yard near here that has one and charges £30 per day to keep the horse and 'spa' it. The horse has to wear nappies whilst in it too.
 
We use Nature's spa....very lucky to be right beside the sea so everything gets time in the tide several times a week. We use the beach for daily cantering for the racehorses too so it is handy to cool legs after work. We usually bring them in to top of their legs and walk them in it for about 20mins
