The anti-inflammatory effects of the product can give relief to your horse when worn, accelerating recovery and improving performance as well.

GENERAL GUIDELINES: Incrediwear is a novel "athletic" fabric that has been used in the human sports industry for over 6 years. It features a germanium/carbon-embedded fiber that activates when exposed to body heat, causing infrared waves to induce cellular vibration through energy transfer to intracellular water, thereby releasing and triggering a mechanical increase in blood flow to the area along with heightened lymphatic drainage, resulting in its unique properties. Incrediwear Equine has adapted these principles into a new line of products focused on the equine distal limb. When applied dry, the product increases blood flow and promotes lymphatic drainage. When applied wet, particularly with warm or hot water, an endothermic reaction occurs, resulting in decreased surface temperatures, creating an 'ice bandage' effect. By following these general principles, the product can be applied dry before exercise to enhance blood flow and wet following exercise for the cooling effect. It's important to note that all applications should be conducted under the supervision and/or advice of your veterinarian. If your veterinarian is not familiar with Incrediwear Equine, encourage them to contact the office for more information.

I love all the human products! For horses, slipping over the head is not a great option. If you had it where you could wrap around the neck and close with velcro, it would be good!
My 20 year old dressage horse was diagnosed with arthritis in C5-C6 after the source of a LF lameness could not be found in the foot or limb. Neck injections failed to provide him relief beyond 6 weeks. Frustrated and unwilling to put him through treatment that wasn’t working as it should anyway, I bought the sleeve. For the price I had nothing to lose. It’s now approximately 2 years later and no injections have been necessary. I ride him with the sleeve on. It looks funny, but I don’t care! He loves it!
