Description
Many horses suffer from knee problems as a result of bad confirmation, competition or just old age. Treating knees can be both expensive and difficult.
Ice-Vibe has developed Ice-Vibe Knee Wraps that wrap around the knee similar to a human knee support. They have a removable cold pack that velcro onto the top of the wrap to prevent it slipping, while the massage panel sits at the front of the knee.
The cold pack can be heated in warm water to combine heat and massage before exercise to help reduce stiffness. Ice-vibe Knee Wraps are wireless, rechargeable, easy to use and portable. They are sold in pairs and we recommend treating both legs even if only one leg is injured.
Each pack contains:
2 ICE-VIBE KneeĀ Wraps
2 cold packs
2 batteries
1 battery charger
Treatment
Ice-Vibe Knee Wraps used with cold packs can reduce inflammation while maintaining bloodflow. This can help improve healing and management of ligament injuries, sprains, bruising, arthritis and curbs Ā
Repair
Ice-Vibe Knee WrapsĀ used without cold packs can help to boost blood supply to your horses legs by simulating exercise. This can help to: remove toxins, bring oxygen to horses' legs, strengthen tissue and minimise scar tissue
Recovery
After exercise you can combine cold and massage therapy to help reduce inflammation without making the knee too cold which would compromise healingĀ
The ICE-VIBE Knee boots are designed to help reduce soreness and swelling in horses' knees while stimulating healing through massage.
Instructions
Note: Always use with cold packs when swelling or heat is present. Avoid using on infections. If using to treat arthritis, warm the packs and combine these with massage before exercise, use cold packs and massage after exercise daily. Setting two is the main daily setting. We recommend treating both legs at the same time even if only one leg is injured

FAQ
All your questions, answered.
Not sure what rug your horse needs right now? Our free Horse Rug Forecaster checks your local weather and tells you what rug weight your horse needs today, tonight and over the next 3 days. It works anywhere in New Zealand and adjusts for clipped horses and horses that feel the cold.
The thermoneutral zone is the temperature range where the body can maintain its core temperature with little to no extra energy expenditure. Humans need it much warmer, at around 25ā30 Ā°C, but for horses itās much broader at 5ā25 Ā°C.
This difference means we should avoid rugging horses based on how cold we feel. Over-rugging can lead to serious health issues, including metabolic problems and thermoregulatory dysfunction.
Tips for Choosing a Winter Rug Weight
-
Clipped horses may need a heavier gram fill to stay comfortable.
-
Remember: horses warm themselves more easily than they cool down under a rug. If unsure, choose a lighter rug.
-
Check your horse regularly to make sure they are neither too hot nor too cold.
-
Consider your horseās age and natural ability to stay warm.
-
As a general guide, a healthy unclipped horse with shelter usually doesn't need a winter rug until it feels colder than about 5 Ā°C, but always adjust for your horseās individual needs.
-
Always ensure rugs are waterproof. A wet rug is worse than no rug at all.
This is an indicative guide only. Always take into account factors such as wind chill, your horseās age, weight, and condition. For advice based on your local forecast, try the Horse Rug Forecaster.
