Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream

Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream has been designed especially to protect horses and ponies against sore and scabby cracked heels. Loosens scabs, waterproofs and protects and does NOT seal the skin.

Uses: Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream is a wonderful product to help protect and soothe inflamed areas where soreness, swelling and scabs are evident. It will soften scabs naturally allowing them to fall away without causing any pain to your horse or pony.

Bacteria/Fungi: Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream is anti-bacterial and anti-fungal.

Protector: This unique cream is rich in Lanolin BP and Concentrated Herbal Oils to waterproof and protect vunerable areas. Lanolin is one the toughest products known for staying on the skin. It also acts as an excellent water barrier WITHOUT sealing the skin.

Mud, Grit & Wet: In wetter months, when horses and ponies tend to stand around in muddy conditions for longer periods of time, the skin can become weakened, split and inflamed. These are perfect conditions for bacterial and fungal conditions, such as spre and cracked heels to thrive. Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream is a wonderful product to use as a barrier to help prevent sharp grit from penetrating sore cracked areas and help protect against infection.

Scabs: Never be tempted to pick the scabs off - it is intensely painful to the animal and can cause further infection to develop. Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream softens and loosens scabs naturally. After just a few days the scabs will soften and become loose. Very gently massage will ensure that they come away easily.

Moisture Balance: Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream helps restore the correct moisture balance without impairing the natural skin function, keeping the skin supple and in peak condition.

Directions For Use: Ensure vulnerable areas are reasonably clean prior to application. Apply generously ensuring you make good contact with the skin. Use daily at first and then once or twice weekly. Where redness, scabs and loss of hair are evident, use our Antibacterial Skin Spray to soothe the whole area before applying Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream. Heel to Hoof acts as an excellent barrier against Wet, Mud and Grit.

Endorsement: 'I would just like to thank you for your Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream, which I have been using for mud fever. I have a young horse, which a week ago I noticed slight swelling and scabs on her legs. I immediately bought some other product from my local equestrian shop, applied it as directed and if anything it made her legs worse than ever. In desperation I went onto the internet and saw Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream, which I bought.
I washed her legs with your Bacti-leg Wash, dried them and then covered them with your cream. The next morning all the swelling had gone down and 90% of the scabs and dead tissue had gently come away, painlessly. I have continued to use Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream as a preventative and 1'm thrilled with it.
It is extremely easy to apply, it doesn't harden and seems to warm and melt easily onto the skin, making application easy, especially when the legs are sore and you need to be as quick and gentle as possible.
Thank you again, I have never written to anyone before about a product, but I'm so thrilled with the cream that I will always have a supply of it and recommend it to any of my friends. With many thanks.' Janet Larkin & May (the horse), Ashford, Kent.

Endorsement: 'My horse sustained an injury resulting in deep burns and grazes to both hind legs, with fetlocks and pasterns skinned - a real mess. Being an ex-equine veterinary nurse, I was able to give him the best 'hi-tech' treatment, but despite this the wounds became infected and too painful to be touched. I decided to try Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream and the effect was simply miraculous! Within seconds my horse felt the soothing sction and allowed me to apply the cream, it was obvious that it gave him instant relief.
I continued to use Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream twice a day with no other treatment. The thick and encrusted scabs fell away leaving perfect pink, healthy skin and after ten days new hair growth started to come through. What's more, the wounds covered a large area but Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream was so amazingly economical to use. I might add that this particular horse has white legs, sensitive skin and is very prone to mud fever, so it was a particularly good test case for the product.' Maria Wellman, Dressage Rider, Trainer & Ex Equine Veterinary Nurse.

Endorsement: 'I have owned my mare for 18 years and from the age of 12 she has suffered with extreme mud fever and as a result has had to be stabled full time. If she was turned out her life was miserable, sufffering huge problems and often secondary infection resulting in expensive visits from the vet and anti-biotic injections. I literally tried everything to relieve her suffering.
A chance conversation with a young vet occurred and she recommended Barrier Animal Healthcare's 'Heel to Hoof Soothing Cream.' I began to use the product and quite frankly the results were miraculous. She has no mud fever and is able to be turned out all day and is a very happy 19-year-old horse. Your product keeps the mud off and her skin smoothe, with no scabs, no lameness and no vet bills. I seem to be constantly recommending your products and will use it on my mare's son, so that he never has to suffer with such a horrible condition. Please don't take it off the market! Diane Leslie & Mabel (the horse), Centerbury, Kent.
