Breed: Warmblood

I am very happy with my Arc Equine usage. Horse is 8 year old warmblood eventer who had declining performance and didn’t look or feel quite right.

Then was diagnosed as having damaged both front suspensory ligaments 9 weeks ago. Fairly positive prognosis from the vet but still scans showed significant damage especially on the left leg which showed a hole in the ligament so unsure of what to expect. Started using the arc equine about 8 weeks ago, and just had the check up and trot up and the horse is sound and scans showing the hole has nearly disappeared and both legs looking much better. He has also been having the vet’s prescribed box rest for the 8 weeks and a course of 3 shock wave treatment as well as cold laser therapy and magnetic fetlock bands.

The arc has been so simple to use – Im at university and he is on full livery, and it is easy for everyone to put on and off during the day and gives a bit of entertainment during the boring days for him! Vet has been very happy with improvement and I have just started being able to hack him again which has been a quick recovery for quite bad damage to his legs. Fingers crossed this progress keeps up – the arc certainly has not done any harm and hopefully everything has worked well together. Will also be using it on my 13 year old eventer for general maintenance.
