Self-contained and stand-alone the Hock Pad operates on three “AA” alkaline batteries. The sturdy strap wrap around the hock for hands-free treatment of common hock ailments including curbs, thoroughpins, bog spavins, bone spavins, collateral ligament strains, infections, internal joint problems, etc.
Price is for a pair of pads.
With a treatment time as little as 15 minutes, a pair of Hock Pads can be used on multiple horses per day. It is used on existing hock problems and for the prevention of hock injuries.
Each Hock Pad has 18 visible red diodes at a wave length of 650nm diodes, strategically located to help relieve and prevent problems in one of the most important and hardest worked joints in the horse.
The Hock Pads are designed specifically for left and right, and should not be interchanged since the structures of the medial (inside) and lateral (outside) aspects of the hock differ. Though your horse’s injury may be only on one side, it is advisable to treat both hocks at the same time, and they are sold in pairs for this reason.
Common treatment areas include:
Joint inflammation
Bog spavins
Bone spavins
Thoroughpins
Curbs
Intratarsal joints
Digital, flexor and extensor tendons
