As above - are magnetic boots/wraps any good? Are there any personal experiences - human and horse?

My two scenario's:
1) I broke my leg and ankle 4 months ago - x-rays just before xmas show the ankle break healing well but the break to the fibula has barely started to grow any new bone. I also have thickening/scar tissue around my ankles. - would a magnetic wrap/support help as they are meant to promote healing/increase blood flow.

2) My 2 year old punctured his knee to the joint just before xmas and had to have it flushed out - he is still in the vets (day 12) and they have said the swelling is going down but there is some thickening over the joint. Would magnetic knee wraps help with this. I will speak to the vet when I pick him up (hopefully at the weekend) to see what they say - but would like to give him the best aids to recovery.

Or any other suggestions welcome for the two of us!
 
I used the Premier Equine ones on my mare to aid the recovery of her tear to her DDFT. I would say they were beneficial in the healing of this injury.
 
Sorry to hear about your and your horse's injuries. Fingers crossed for your youngster! im using the verdeus stable wraps, Bioflow boots and got a new Armadillo rug from Santa so I'm definitely a fan! I've always gotten great results. My wonderful showjumper has a small tear in this DDFT so I'm really heartened by previous comment here. They are great. I posted the same thread in CR 2 weeks ago so have a look there too :)
