Monitoring Competition Horses
As a quick, safe and accurate physiological test for 'dysfunction' anywhere in the body, thermography can be a key aspect within a competition horse's regime. For those horses that are involved in show jumping, eventing, racing, or any other competitive sport, regular thermal screening can help identify developing problems at an early stage which will allow for changes to training programs, competition planning and early treatment of minor injuries which can develop into major lameness.
Equiscan work with many professional yards to monitor their horses throughout training, rehabilitation, treatment and competition.
Equiscan DITI can help to detect tendon and ligament injuries long before they cause lameness and breakdown. Clinical studies have shown that thermography can detect lesions 4 weeks before they become clinically evident. Small muscular issues that may otherwise go unnoticed can be highlighted and corrected and can assist both professionals and trainers when used correctly. DITI can help a team to assess a horse's suitability to compete and ensure their horse is comfortable during training.
Equiscan offers regular health checks and preventative care at a very economic rate. We also offer group discounts for regular scheduled screening visits to racing stables and competition yards. We will provide you with a highly professional service that is strictly confidential.
