A Cool Sharp One
Need opinions please - have had my horses stifles injected and have been off of him for a month; have been looking at both of these one is copper vs ice - has anyone used these products, pros/cons please and when and how often do you use them.
I personally would like the combo of both of these. I use ice on my knee for about 20 minutes and then leave my copper knee brace on especially over night. I never use ice for more then 20 minutes on me or my horse and then 20 minutes off.

The copper makes life simple. JMHO
I agree with this. Both wraps do something totally different for your horse. You're comparing apples to oranges. I never ice for longer than 15-20 min.
What exactly are you trying to acheive with the wraps? Because each wrap has a different job in my opinion.
