Here is a little info on the EquiVibe for those who have not yet heard of this wonderful product.... Using an EquiVibe® is fairly simple. While properly positioned, the entire body vibrates due to the frequency of the platform, which causes the muscles to contract and stretch in order to sustain balance. These natural reflexes are involuntary and happen very rapidly, much like the human knee jerk reaction tested by doctors. Depending on level of fitness or rehab, the duration and frequency of use will vary. Before when a horse exercised they might be using 40% of their muscles, now with EquiVibe they are using nearly 100% of their muscles. Some muscles they may have never used before. What you can experience with the EquiVibe is faster recovery, increased muscle mass, improved performance, quality hoof care, improved joint health, and prevention of injuries and issues such as laminitis, founder, bucked shins, navicular pain, and much much more. Before competing, equine vibration therapy provides an optimal and faster substitute to a traditional warm up. Using this alternative allows muscles to be stimulated and prepared for significant movement without the substantial energy exertion that comes with traditional exercises. If an injury does occur and a horse is unable to exercise a decrease in bone density and muscle mass is likely to occur. Horses experience a loss of minerals because they are lacking stimulation to the bones to signal a need to retrain these minerals. However, this may be prevented with the use of EquiVibe vibration therapy, which provides significant stimulus to the bones and muscles by preventing or slowing down the loss of bone density and muscle mass during prolonged periods of inactivity. It’s no wonder why more and more equine athletes are using the EquiVibe. EquiVibe helps them stay healthy and ready to compete at the same time. Owners and trainers tell us more horses are staying injury free now more than ever before. Two major areas that help performance. A stronger and healthier horse and preventive care of injury.
