Sooth’n Cool® Gel is a superior method to cool tired sore legs while reducing swelling and inflammation. It is convenient and easy to use and a significant time saver when compared to icing, hosing and poulticing. When compared to liniments which heat the area and increase blood flow through counter-irritation (now recognized as not the treatment of choice to avoid tissue damage from work), Sooth’n Cool® Gel cools the tissue and provides safe, naturally derived anti-inflammatories while complying with FEI and USEF guidelines. If you use a liniment, stop "irritating" your horse's legs and try Sooth’n Cool® Gel. Your horse will thank you with better performance.
Sooth’n Cool® Gel is a unique blend of herbal extracts and MSM that provide three widely accepted naturopathic anti-inflammatories in a single convenient to use format. The gel is manufactured utilizing only US sourced raw materials of the highest grade available. All processing is performed in the US under strict quality standards. Equine Advantage LLC will not use any raw materials sourced from China or India to assure safety and quality.
Sooth’n Cool® Gel is provided in a convenient to use gel format that has been formulated to stay in place on the applier’s hands and the horse’s legs until rubbed in. The shear applied to the gel by rubbing, “breaks” the gel and the Sooth’n Cool® liquefies and is absorbed and evaporates. The evaporation helps in cooling and the Arnica, Calendula and MSM all provide anti-inflammatory action with the MSM also enhancing skin penetration. After applying Sooth’n Cool® Gel, the legs can be wrapped or not as the equestrian prefers. We recommend trying the gel without wrapping and if not satisfied with the outcome, then try wrapping after application. Generally, we find wrapping is not required. Sooth’n Cool® dries with an elegant feel on your hands and cleanly on the horse’s coat leaving no tackiness.
Sooth’n Cool® Gel is competitively priced when compared to liniments at$24.99 for a quart, $39.99 for a ½ gallon tub and $69.99 for a 1-gallon tub. 1 gallon is sufficient to treat one horse on a daily basis for a full month making it a very cost-effective option for the equestrian competitor.
