The anatomic fit of the IceHorse wraps, hoof boots, and back blanket are the absolute best on the market, says Johnson. The products fit so well–and have excellent insulation–that I’m able to utilize them for both cold and heat therapy for my patients.
At ESMR our mission is to provide the best, evidence-based veterinary care for actively competing equine athletes and those rehabilitating from orthopedic injuries,” said Johnson. “Our alliances with like-minded industry leaders such as IceHorse ultimately advance the level of care we can provide.”
