Effective
The Big Black Boot is a horse ice boot that provides cold therapy for hoofs. Double cooling inserts conform to the hoof, molding the cold from the coronet band to the toe of the horse's hoof for cold therapy that is effective.
Pain & Swelling Management
When injured, tissues release chemicals and vasoactive substances. These produce a cascade of reactions which result in localized swelling, heat and pain. Applying
First+ Ice Packs to a tissue injury limits the inflammatory response by causing the blood vessels to constrict. This limits the blood flow to the injured site, moderating the release of the vasoactive substances and as a result, minimizes the pain and swelling in the afflicted area. Cold therapy reduces inflammation and pain.
Comfort & Support
The polymer shoe provides comfort, traction and support, while a unique elastic band strap helps configure the boot to the hoof.
