Laminitis and founder are a great source of pain for the horse and his/her owner. The horse suffers physically while the owner suffers emotionally and financially. The Hoof Cinch is here to change all of this. The Hoof Cinch is an affordable, safe and painless way to fix founder.
Laminitis can be caused by many variables. At Hoof Cinch we recommend having a good farrier and veterinarian that work well together, work on your horse. While the cause for the laminitis is being sought, the Hoof Cinch can relieve the pain and start the corrective process.
The hoof cinch was tested on 60 horses over the course of a year. 5 normal horses where included and none of them showed any hoof change or lameness at anytime. 29 of the 30 foundered horses recovered fully.
In the treatment of founder, there is a lot of misinformation and unproven theories about the horse hoof and can make it difficult for the owner, the veterinarian and farrier to determine the proper treatment for the foundering horse.
Horses fixed with the Hoof Cinch are able to go back to their normal duties such as trail riding, barrel racing, jumping and just being your companion.
To fix founder the hoof cinch applies pressure to the affected area, relieving pain and forcing the hoof wall to grow back closer to the bone, allowing the laminae to reattach. Screws secure the Hoof Cinch to the hoof wall and no shoes are required making this a pain free installation for the horse.
The Hoof Cinch also causes the hoof to grow at a faster rate due to the continuous pressure applied to the hoof wall that stimulates the coronary band. 16-20 weeks is the normal application time. Check the Cinches every couple of days and tighten if needed with a hand held screw driver.
