The hele hoof cushion is wedge shaped and made of material that is both resilient and takes on the shape of the hoof. It is intended for single use and can be applied in all orthopaedic indications which require elevation of the heels and box rest or controlled exercise in hand. This applies in cases where relief of the suspensory apparatus of the third phalanx in laminitis as well as relief of the flexor tendons and their accessory ligaments in tendonitis and desmitis is desirable. The hele hoof cushion guarantees highest comfort and provides immediate pain reduction. |
|
The hele hoof cushion is easily and quickly affixed to the hoof by means of a special tape (see video). In all, this process takes only a few minutes and can therefore be easily carried out in the busy daily routine of equine practice. This is not just a quickfix solution but a better alternative to hoof plaster or cast. |
|
Thus, the orthopaedic therapy does not need to be postponed and follow up visits on the same day are no longer necessary. The prophylactic heel elevation in predisposing cases, such as retained placenta or grain overload, is easy to achieve. The early use of the hele hoof cushion can help many patients escape agonising chronic situations. |
|
The hele hoof cushion is available in five different sizes designed to fit the majority of equine patients. In particular cases, for example abnormal hoof shape, the hoof cushion can be easily cut to size with gardening scissors or with a hoof knife. |
