Context
During injury recovery (tendon, joint, or muscle), equipment and care must minimize risks and promote rehabilitation.
Recommended equipment and care
Support bandages
Bandages with moderate tension as indicated by the veterinarian, especially for limbs with tendinopathies.
Technical blankets
Cooler drying blankets after rehabilitation exercises, regular blankets to maintain temperature.
Joint supplements
Nutritional support with chondroitin, glucosamine, MSM, and, according to veterinary guidance, oral hyaluronic acid.
Controlled work
In rehabilitation, the work plan is set by the veterinarian. The rider and horse's equipment must be aligned with that plan.
