Pulsed electromagnetic field therapy devices, designed specifically for equine use, deliver electromagnetic pulses to targeted areas of the horse’s body. These pulses induce tiny electrical currents within tissues, which can influence cellular function and promote physiological changes. For instance, a device might be placed near a horse’s injured leg to stimulate blood flow and reduce inflammation.
This therapeutic modality has gained recognition for its potential to support healing, alleviate pain, and improve overall equine well-being. Historically, electromagnetic fields have been used in human medicine, and their application in veterinary practice has steadily grown. Equine practitioners increasingly utilize these devices as a complementary therapy for various conditions, from soft tissue injuries and osteoarthritis to wound healing and general wellness support. The non-invasive nature of the treatment makes it a palatable option for many horse owners.
