The Acavallo Magnet Care therapy blanket, 100% Made in Italy, uses magnetic action for beneficial effects on physical recovery and relaxation of the horse.
The Magnet Care blanket by Acavallo is crafted from breathable 3D Air-Mesh fabric and contains 32 magnets placed across the dorsal, lumbar, and shoulder areas. This blanket uses the principles of magnet therapy to improve the horse’s physical and mental well-being, aiding in recovery after physical activity. The magnets are made from an alloy of Neodymium, Iron, and Boron, each with a strength of 2600 Gauss. These magnets stimulate blood circulation and have a vasoconstrictive effect, helping to reduce swelling and inflammation while promoting general relaxation.
This therapeutic blanket for horses can be used on its own or under a winter blanket:
• during transportation to reduce travel-related stress
• before competitions to stimulate blood flow and support performance
• after intense activity to reduce swelling and inflammation
Usage Instructions:
- Gradually accustom the horse to the blanket, as it may initially feel slight tingling or tickling due to increased localized blood flow. It is recommended to monitor the horse during the first uses.
- Suitable for horses of all ages and genders, and can be used continuously at rest if needed.
- Only use while the horse is at rest and cool, to avoid potential discomfort that could cause behavioral irritation.
Warnings:
- Do not use in cases of acute injuries (first 5 days).
- Do not use on visible bruises, open wounds, bleeding, untreated injuries, or infections, as the magnetic effect may contribute to spreading the affected area.
- Do not use in combination with anti-inflammatory or blood-thinning medications or ointments applied to the areas subject to magnetic treatment.
- Do not use in paddocks or during dynamic activities.
- Do not use in the presence of a pacemaker.
- Do not use during pregnancy.
- This is not a medical device.
