| So my horse was diagnosed with a strained left hind superficial digital flexor tendon. We injected with PRP and recommended shock wave. I do magna wave and vet tried to tell me it wouldn't be good for it. I have had success with using the magna wave on strained and tore tendons.
Anyone have any experience / feedback concerning shockwave versus magna wave? Or using both? |

| Cold laser therapy, stall rest, hand walking, and time. My gelding goes in next week for his 4 month ultrasound to see how he's healing. Same injury but left front. |

| I like runners relief but it's a bit time consuming (sweating the leg process). Back on Track quick wraps are great, just easy no mess,. leave them on and go. Cold hosing, hand walking slowly build up time, lots of rest. |

I used Runners Relief on a high bowed tendon, just below the knee. It was a 50% tear, one vet told me he thought it would be career ending. WRONG He was back to riding in 90 days and he is running better than he ever has! |
