DESIGN & FUNCTION
The Iconoclast Rehabilitation boot is a working recovery boot for horses that have sustained an injury or strain of the soft tissue (ligaments or tendons) of the lower limb. Working in conjunction with our patented Double Sling Straps is our patented Orthopedic Wedge, which is positioned against the back of the fetlock joint and the first phalanx (upper pastern).The soft ergonomically designed Orthopedic Wedge provides additional vertical support to the ligaments and tendons of the equine leg. This support if beneficial to aid in the recovery of damaged tissue. Proper use of this product in conjunction with other recommended modalities of treatment will reduce the opportunity of scar tissue development during recovery. Our Double Sling Straps ensure proper stability of the wedge insert by providing balanced, 360-degree support which prevents hyperextension or over flexing of the sesamodial region.
Rehab boots are designed to be used in rehabilitation and recovery only.
Over- extension injuries can be quite complex. We will not ship rehab boots without first discussing the injury with you to determine whether they will be of benefit in your situation. Rehab boots are not suitable for riding and are of most benefit if used immediately after an injury has occured. It is recommended that they be fitted for a maximum of 4 hours on with 1 hour off then repeat. Rehab boots are in stock in all sizes from small to XXL .Β
