​Can PEMF be used on horse before an event

​​Yes, we recommend trying Midwest Mobile Wellness  ahead of time, since horses can react differently to a session. Some horses are more relaxed after the session, not having the same edge in a competitive situation, while others are not affected in that way and ready to perform. Midwest Mobile Wellness can assist your horse with:

​» Stress reduction                       ​» Reduce Inflammation
​» Aid with Muscle Soreness    » Overall Body Wellness ​» Competitive Edge

What can PEMF do after an event? 

Midwest Mobile Wellness can help horses recover from events and competitions by gently stimulating the muscle, tendons, and ligaments in the body. Rosie Napravnik, two-time Kentucky Oaks winner, has used PEMF to help herself and her horses. Use PEMF to help your horse stay active and healthy before or after an event!

IMPROVE CIRCULATION AND BLOOD FLOW

Blood circulation is an important part of your body’s overall function and health. Your heart pumps blood through blood vessels within your circulatory system. ​Separation of blood cells increases the available surface area, which allows cells to pick up more oxygen and release more energy.
