| We are PHT fans, the thought of using BOT in our Texas heat simply does not make sense to me. The CuHorse or MagnaCu help regulate heat. Love sleeping in the CuHorse when hot flashes hit |

| BOT for my horse, he is one of the few who can't tolerate magnets. I use the saddle pad as a liner under my pad and even in Texas heat it is ok. BUT I am only riding for an hour or so. I have a friend who is using my bell boots on her reiner's knees but again she doesn't leave them on for very long. |

Google them and you can find out what you would like to know. PHT is far the best out there. I have a Blanket and bell boots and use them as much as possible. |

Their new line of product made with copper material is also fantastic.
I am a huge fan of the new CuHorse product line from PHT.

Location: Golden Gulf Coast of Texas | I have both and use the PHT products more. I can really tell the difference after using them. I do use the BOT saddle pad as a liner and it works well also but the other BOT products I have I rarely use. |

Location: Here | You cannot compare these 2 products. They are totally different
PHT does a lot more than just increase circulation www.phtmagnetics.com. I have posted this several times before so I will post it again
First thing to remember is these are 2 totally different therapies and do totally different things.
PHT Magnetic Products
Enhances ability of the body to remove toxins naturally
Improves circulation
Increases cellular oxygen
Reduces fluid retention...
Fight infection - enhances lymph flow
Helps to flush latic acid after workout
Supports biological healing
Reduces inflammation
Balances acid/alkaline balance
Relieves Pain
BOT how it works
How Back on Track works
Back on Track's joint and muscle support are all made of functional textiles with heat reflective properties. The textile is a synergy of ancient Chinese experience and modern scientific textile technology. During the manufacturing of polyester- or polyester fibres, the ceramic particles are fused into the fibres. When heated, the ceramic particles radiate a heat back towards the body. This reflected heat is long-wave heat radiation, which is also known as long wave infrared radiation.
Heat Radiation
It is well established and documented that long wave infrared heat radiation increases the blood circulation. The increased blood circulation in the tissues helps to relieve muscles tension and improves performance. One important property is the injury prevention effect, which you get when the protections are used for training and competition
There is no "build up" of time when using PHT. No worry about outside temperature with any of our products usage.
PHT has also developed a new line of products called MagnaCu They combine PHT magnetics and Copper infused fabric. These two combined are fabulous at promoting healing and homeostasis www.magnacu.com

Location: Here | Our products are designed and developed with the following in mind.
Homeostatic processes act at the level of the cell, the tissue, and the organ, as well as for the horse as a ...whole.
Principal Homeostatic processes include the following:
1) Temperature Regulation
The horse's body tries to maintain a constant body temperature. An advantage of temperature regulation is that it allows the horse to function effectively in a broad range of environmental conditions. That thermal stability comes at a price, since an automatic regulation system requires additional energy. If the temperature rises, the horse loses heat by sweating, via the latent heat of evaporation. If it falls, this is counteracted by increased metabolic action, by shivering, and by thickening the hair coat.
2) Regulation of the pH of the blood at 7.365 (a measure of alkalinity and acidity).
3) Regulation of their blood glucose concentration
4) The kidneys are used to remove excess water and ions from the blood. These are then expelled as urine. The kidneys perform a vital role in homeostatic regulation in horse's, removing excess water, salt, and urea from the blood.
5) If the water content of the blood and lymph fluid falls, it is restored in the first instance by extracting water from the cells. The throat and mouth become dry, so that the symptoms of thirst motivate the horse to drink.
6) If the oxygen content of the blood falls, or the carbon-dioxide concentration increases, blood flow is increased by more vigorous heart action and the speed and depth of breathing increases.
7) Sleep timing depends upon a balance between homeostatic sleep propensity, the need for sleep as a function of the amount of time elapsed since the last adequate sleep episode, and circadian rhythms that determine the ideal timing of a correctly structured and restorative sleep episode.
All PHT Products are designed with these principals in mind. We provide products that will help your horse feel his best by providing a SAFE healing environment.
So when buying a product and using it on your horse, ask yourself is this product really helping my horse? Because PHT is. |

| SG, I sure wish my horse could tolerate magnets, cause I sure like to use them on me. Right now a friend has my magnet stuff. She almost completely severed her ankle a few years ago. The doctors thought they were going to have to amputate, but thankfully didn't. She is also a dog groomer so she has a lot of serious aches and pains. She loves the PHT quick wraps. In fact, I am just going to give them to her. At night her ankle gets so angry, she can't sleep unless she wraps it in quick wraps. She loves them. |

You should give the CuHorse Products a try. They're copper infused fabric only, no magnets. |

Thanks, I have been eyeing them. As soon as I get some money saved, I think I will try them. |

| I've found that a PHT sheet paired with BOT Hock Wraps and Boots is a pretty good combination. |
