Description
"Using the Easy Shock has changed the game for us and our horses! It’s portable, affordable, and helps prevent injuries as well as helps the healing on pre existing ones for horses at the top level of the sport. Mark Kinsella, Grand Prix show jumper

How it Works
The radial shockwave therapy device uses compressed air to accelerate a projectile through a tube, creating a low intensity primary wave as it impacts on the applicator. A parabolic reflector then creates a secondary wave. These ‘bundled’ waves are directed through an applicator held against the skin, moving through the tissue towards a defined point at a penetration depth of up to 6 cm. This stimulates a cellular response, with improved blood supply and increased cell proliferation leading to regeneration of tendon, ligament and bone tissue. The exact mechanisms for this biological response are not yet fully known.
4 Principle Effects
Equine shockwave therapy safely and effectively addresses a range of musculoskeletal injuries and conditions.
Orthopedic: Stimulates new bone growth and fracture repair, and cartilage production in joints.
Tendons and ligaments:Prompts release of healing and growth factors, with improved collagen production.
Wound healing: Improved blood supply and cellular stimulation leads to tissue regeneration and rapid healing.
Analgesia: Nerve fiber stimulation blocks an increase in pain stimuli and leads to pain reduction (gate control theory).

There’s no better treatment for suspensory injuries out there.
