"3 Years ago my 8 year old QH Mare kicked through her stall and ripped the tendons and ligaments along her left rear connon. They didn't think she would make it but she did and after a few months of rehab we were able to get back into light work (W/T) with our therapy students. Although she's sound and can do light work we always noticed that there was a lack of flexability during her warm-up and that she would not cock her legs while at rest. That's when I found these boots and thought I would give them a try. After only a week of use my Lil Girl is now able to cock both legs and has less trouble trotting in corners. I know they can not fix the damage that was done but they sure are making a difference to the life she has."

"Bought these magnetic boots for my mare who sprained a ligament. She had been on stall rest for 4 months but her fetlock was still swollen. Did a lot of research and bought these boots. Within a week of using them, the puffiness is gone and my horse looks better than ever. Why did I wait so long to buy them?!?! I dont even know how many people Ive told about these boots!! They are great!"

"My horse injured his check ligament a month and a half ago, and I bought these boots as soon as my vet recommended them to me. He's been wearing them for about 5 weeks now every day for the full 8 hours, and I'd like to think they are really helping. I can't say I've noticed any HUGE improvement, but they sure are keeping Indigo completely sound.
Although they do rip easily - my horse seems to only be ripping the straps off because he's very bored in his stall (previously he has never chewed on his wraps), they are easy to sew back on. I just spray Rap Last on them, and he doesn't touch them anymore.
Anyway, I am supposed to be using the magnets every day, walking him, and also wrapping at night. I have put him on the SmartTendon supplement, and Back On Track wraps at night. All three of them seem to be making him feel really good, and I recommend all of the above products for a tendon injury!"

"After just 3 hours, spread over 2 days, his bow reduced in size by half. I couldn't believe it. I'm happy with the quality of the boots. Very well made.
There were no directions for use. We are barrel racers so I am very familiar with how to put boots on. I know nothing about magnets, so it would of been helpful to have written directions. They did tag them left and right and the picture has the logo on the outside but when you put them on by the "right", "left" tags the logo is on the inside. So does it matter? I have no idea. Well, regardless they reduced the bow and increased blood flow for sure but I have not left on for more than 3 hrs at a time since I am not sure if they are on correctly for the magnets.

"I have a horse with a mild suspensory sprain, wanted to help him anyway I can - ordered the Magnetic Boots, use them about twice a week for 30 min each time. Seem to be fine, and he is not off at all."

"I have a retired quarter horse mare that I competed and also trail rode for years. She has had some injuries in the past that caused arthritis and other problems that led to her retirement. She has been to several vets and I have not found an answer to her problem. She does not drop back on her fetlocks in the back and stands upright. I bought these boots to see if they would help make her more comfortable. For the first time in a couple of years I have seen her relax some in those back legs since I put these boots on her. I am so glad we tried them and I hope she will continue to get better with further use."

"I have a horse that is recovering from a minor suspensory injury. I ordered these boots to help with his recovery. I've had them about two weeks, and use them two to three times a week on days he is not lightly ridden. He is getting stronger, and moving very well. I am very happy with the sesult of using the boots."

Helps Heal Bowed Tendons

"My horse is 24. In mid-Feb '09 had a severe mid-bow tendon. ultrasound 3 months later; end of May was negative. Vet said I probably could not ride for 8 more months. Immediately after this I started using the magnetic boots. I put them on 2x a week and hand walked my horse an hour or so each time. The swelling went down immensely. Vet came out early Sept., to do another ultrasound. This was 6 months from the original tearing. He was amazed at the healing in 3 months from the last ultrasound. He asked what I did and I told him I purchased the magnetic boots. He said I could start to ride/walk/trot my horse! Magnets work and definitely increase the circulation and promote healing. These boots are worth every penny."

"I bought these for my mare with a tendon sprain and they are working well. The velcro straps are well positioned and the boots fit well. I liked they come as a pair as many magnetic boots I saw came as singles. The price was great and these are solid quality."

"Interesting product. I was skeptical about magnets, but I could actually feel a difference when I handled them myself.
I'm using them on and off with my horse so we will see. It would be great if they had a stifle bandage...difficult to wrap but would be helpful.

Great Boots

April 4, 2005
ByJacko
fromChicago, IL
"I have had two small minor tendon issues with my prelim event horse, and I did some research and wanted to give magnetic therapy a try. My horse used to take forever to warm up and had stiffness issues, but since I bought them, there is hardly any puffiness in his legs and he’s as sound as he has ever been, even with just using the boots for 1-3 hours a week. They're so easy and great; I love them!"
