Stübben x EQUI compress - the revolutionary compression system for horses
More than 5 years of research & development - patented - 100% made in Germany: the first compression stocking that convinces!
EQUI Compress succeeds in stimulating the vascular system and accelerating metabolism with the help of optimal pressure and efficient compression, starting from the horse's hoof.
The problem
Unlike humans, who have well-developed calf muscles, horses only have sinewy extensions in the hoof.
The advantage: rapid acceleration during flight situations - the disadvantage: the lack of a muscle pump means that the metabolic end products can only be transported back to the heart more slowly. This transport takes place through the lymphatic system, which is connected parallel to the circulatory system.
The lymph then flows into the veins close to the heart. If the lymphatic system is not fully functioning, proteins cannot be drained, for example, and tissue hardening occurs. Our sport horses are mainly kept in the stable.
The result: the natural metabolism is disrupted. Standing more therefore promotes illness and leads to injuries. The horse regenerates more slowly and structures such as muscles, ligaments and tendons are more vulnerable.
The solution
This is where the EQUI compression stocking comes in, by generating compression at a precisely predetermined position with the required pressure. This brings the vascular valves closer together, stimulates the lymphatic system and creates an effective pumping function.
EQUI compress therefore has a prophylactic, long-lasting effect and offers sport horses and all horses that stand more often due to the situation a measurable advantage for the first time.
What exactly does the EQUI compress compression system do?
- Compression starting at the crown edge in the direction of the heartIncrease in blood flow rate
- Prophylaxis against bile formationReaches the lymphatic valves
- Accelerates the elimination of metabolic productsDecongestion of the extremities
- Fascia stimulation by proven technology
- Relief of the flexor tendons due to optimal pressure
- Compression on the horse's leg (scientifically proven, patented, made in Germany)
- No slipping thanks to anti-slipPump function at rest
- Antibacterial thanks to silver ions & ideal for skin problems (mallenders & scar tissue)
- Cooling effect thanks to CoolBreathe
- Easy to maintain & stain resistant (washable at 30 degrees)
