Locomotion

Complement locomotion for horse: flexibility and joint performance

Freedom of movement is the cornerstone of horse health. Whether it is a growing young horse, a high-performance athlete or a senior subject to stiffness, the locomotor system is subject to constant stress.

Today we see horses with increasingly young osteoarthritis.

At ESC Laboratory, we have formulated a full range of complements for horse locomotion, designed to protect joints, support tendons and promote optimal muscle flexibility.

Why support your horse's locomotion?

The equine locomotor system is complex and fragile. Using a targeted supplement allows intervention at different levels:

– Prevention of joint wear: Protect cartilage to limit the appearance of osteoarthritis.

– Recovery after stress: Promote the elimination of muscle toxins and drain tissue after an intense session.

– Comfort of the aged horse: Relieving aging-related stiffness and regaining mobility.

– Connective tissue support: Strengthen the strength of the tendons and ligaments when the work is resumed.

Advanced ingredients for a new mobility

Our experts in equine herbal therapy and nutrition select the best active ingredients to guarantee the effectiveness of each supplement for horse locomotion :

Chondroprotectors: Glucosamine, Chondroitin and MSM

These molecules are the essential bricks of cartilage. They promote the regeneration of joint tissues and improve the lubrication of the joint (synovial fluid), thus providing better cushioning during shocks.

Soothing plants: Harpagophytum and Boswellia

For horses with a manifest discomfort, theHarpagophytum (or « Devil's claw ») is the reference plant for its rapid action on pain. The Boswellia, on the other hand, is a powerful natural alternative for stomach sensitive horses or subject to anti-doping regulations (depending on the dosages).

Flexibility and drainage: Bamboo, Hail and Curcuma

Rich in silica and antioxidants, these plants support bone remineralization and soft tissue flexibility, allowing a more fluid and harmonious locomotion.

Which form of supplement to choose for your horse?

To adapt to each situation, we propose different galenics:

1/ Liquid solutions: ideal for flash cure or easy administration in the ration.

2/ Pellets or powders: perfect for long-term background supplementation (cure from 1 to 3 months).

3/ The massage gels : In addition to internal inputs, the local application allows to relax muscles and heat joints before or after the exercise.

The ESC Council Laboratory: Good locomotion begins with optimal hydration and progressive heating. Never neglect the 15 minutes of walk at the beginning of the session, even if you use the best supplements!
