There is a buzz among veterinarians and horsepeople who have attended recent trade shows across North America. An amazing new machine which can provide consistent Cold or Hot Therapy for horses is the cause of the chatter.
Zamar, Temperature Therapy Treatments Ltd. has been manufacturing and selling their Hot and Cold Therapy Systems at a rapid pace throughout the U.K., Europe, Australia, New Zealand, Argentina and Chile. And in September 2006 the Zamar machines officially became available to horsepeople in Canada, through exclusive Canadian distributor Lee Ann Manuel of Galaman Ltd.
Galaman Ltd. has most recently joined forces with 3T Ltd. of Great Britain and in a joint effort they can now provide sales & marketing of this innovative therapy
system to horsepeople in North America.
Invented by an avid horseman who happens to own a
refrigerator company in Italy, the Zamar Therapy System has been used in the prevention and treatment of many equine ailments including tendons, shins & muscles.
Using similar technology to what you would find in your household refrigerator, the Zamar Therapy System consists of leg wraps and other body part wraps which act like a refrigerator in providing a consistent cold or hot temperature for extended periods of time.
This technology has caught the eye of veterinarians who have found that consistent cold to the core of the leg and hoof is the most effective treatment and prevention for laminitis, a life threatening disease which can effect horses of all breeds, age or use.
According to recent studies outlined by the Department of Veterinary Clinical Sciences, College of Veterinary Medicine at the Ohio State University, a constant cooling source which reaches the core of the leg and hoof is required when treating Laminitis.
The traditional treatment of standing the horse in a bucket of ice and water not only provides an inconsistent temperature, it does not reach the core of the leg and hoof and it actually can cause abnormalities to the hoof.
Because the Zamar Therapy System features a consistent temperature range as low as -5°C., the temperature does not vary as it comes in contact with the warmth of the body and is thus able to allow the cold to penetrate deeper. No ice or water is required with the Zamar system which is thermostatically controlled to keep a constant temperature throughout the desired length of the treatment. Treatment of laminitis can be between 24 to 48 hours and standing a horse in ice for 2 hours at a time will not be nearly as effective.
Zamar System’s consistent cold temperature
is also helpful in the treatment of bucked shins. Unlike ointments or cold water, the Zamar Therapy System provides a constant cold temperature which does not fluctuate throughout the entire treatment offering a faster, more effective result.
When a treatment of alternating cold and heat is needed, a heat function can be added to the system which is programmable to alternate cold and heat intermittently. The system can also be equipped to provide a soothing compression massage.
Completely portable and easy to use, the Zamar machine can be used just about anywhere and is specifically designed to help with the prevention of injuries as well as the treatment. The wraps are made from a soft and flexible material which also have highly effective circulatory and muscle relaxant properties.
In Canada the Zamar Therapy System starts at $6800 with accessories and various options extra. For additional information or for a no obligation demonstration contact Lee Ann Manuel at Galaman Inc. toll free at 1-877-249-5576 or visit www.galaman.com.
The Zamar System wrap uses uses an innovative technology invented by a refrigerator manufacturer.
