Respiratory comfort of the horse: Our natural solutions for its breath

The respiratory system is the engine of horse performance and well-being. However, between the dust of quarries, hay or seasonal changes, the lungs of horses are constantly pressed.

Some develop respiratory problems such as emphysema or asthma.

At ESC Laboratory, we have developed a range dedicated to respiratory comfort of the horse, combining traditional herbal therapy and scientific expertise to support bronchi and upper airways.

The importance of preserving respiratory comfort in horses

A horse whose breath is preserved is a more enduring and serene horse. A disorder, even mild, can quickly impact its health. Our solutions address three major issues:

– Irritation of the high roads: for horses coughing at the beginning of work or during temperature changes.

– Dust sensitivity: essential support for horses living in boxes or sensitive to environmental allergens (pollens, moulds).

– Optimization of lung capacity: to ensure maximum oxygenation in sports horses during periods of competition.

Plant actives to clear and soothe the bronchi of horses

To guarantee a optimal respiratory comfort, we select medicinal plants with targeted properties, available in syrups, blends of plants or concentrated supplements:

– Thyme and Eucalyptus: Known for their antiseptic and expectorant virtues, they help free the congested airways.

– The Bouillon Blanc and the Guimauve: These mucilage-rich plants soothe the irritated mucous membranes and calm the dry cough.

– MSM (Methyl Sulfonyl-methane): Often used for its beneficial action on chronic inflammatory processes in the lungs.

Our formats adapted to each respiratory need

At ESC Laboratory, we know that each situation requires a specific response to restore the respiratory comfort of the horse :

1/ Syrup (Eucalyptus, etc.): for immediate action, they cover the throat and facilitate air passage from administration.

2/ Mixed dry plants: ideal for a 21-day background treatment, especially to support emphysematic horses during critical periods.

3/ The bud macerates: the power of Gemmotherapy to support horse breathing and improve well-being.

Tips from our veterinarian: optimize the environment of your horse

Nutritional support is a key step, but respiratory comfort of the horse depends also on his way of life. Consider wetting hay to imprison dust, favouring dust-free litter (coppers or flax) and ensuring constant ventilation in the stable to avoid the accumulation of ammonia.

Did you know that? Untreated respiratory discomfort may develop into chronic inflammation. Act from the first signs of « mowing » or coughing is essential for your horse's career but especially its comfort and health!
