Equilibrium® Hind & Hock Magnetic Chaps
To support mobility, aid joint function and maintain healthy tendons.
Size: S, M, L, XL
Colour: Grey
Do not apply Vitaflex® magnets on open wounds, bruises, areas of inflammation or for the first 5 days following steroid injections.
Additional Information:
The unique design of the Magnetic Hind & Hock Boots not only allows you to put magnets anywhere from the coronet band up to and including the hock joint, but also ensures that your horse can comfortably wear them overnight without fear of them slipping down the leg.
The ergonomic shape combined with the soft inner lining ensure a comfortable fit for your horse which is extremely important as the chaps are designed to be left on overnight and/or for substantial periods of time.
Four Vitaflex® Magnets are supplied with each pair of boots. They are designed to be thin and flat, yet extremely flexible, which allows them to mould to the horses’ legs, should they need to be placed over a joint. Supplied in a small pouch, they can be placed anywhere within the magnetic boot lining with the simple hook and loop attachment. This allows you to target the magnets exactly where your horse needs them.
Why use Magnetic Boots?
Magnets have been used on both horses and humans for many, many years. Magnetic fields have been seen to sustain good blood flow and could therefore help to optimise leg health. Supporting leg health benefits joint mobility and function, and also helps to maintain strong tendons.
When should Magnetic Boots be used for horses?
Why does Equilibrium Products use Vitaflex® magnets and how do they work?
The body’s cells have electromagnetic properties which means they can be energised by a magnetic field. Vitaflex® magnets present two alternating poles to the body, negative and positive, making them different to standard Neodymium magnets, which present only one pole. These strong, circular and permanent magnetic fields of alternating pole sequences penetrate into the body tissue.
The magnets are also thin, long and flexible. This makes them ideal to add to the chaps so that they remain comfortable for the horse to wear. Encased in individual pockets which can be placed anywhere within the chap lining ensures that you can target the exact area you need to!

Hard to be certain how effective they are. I woukd have liked two more magnets for each boot so that they could be placed further down the leg. Also I'm not sure they would stay on overnight on a more restless horse as the velcro overlap is not very generous however so far so good they have stayed on. I think the width is not ideal for my slim legged throughbred but the length is perfect. I have been using them for only 2 weeks.

I bought these for my older mare, who has hock arthritis and had swelling on her fetlock. She has been wearing them every evening in her stable. Her movement seems to have improved and the swelling reduced. Well worth the money.

I am pleased with this product - although a little tight on the hock area
trying is believing - I was amazed at the difference after a single night or these boots being worn in the stable.
