🦴 Treating a splint bone fracture involves removing damaged fragments to ensure proper healing and prevent complications. 🐴 At Bosdreef, we use advanced surgical techniques to give horses the best chance at a full recovery.

🏁 Our new racetrack is ready for use! The first horses have just run their rounds for a Lactate Threshold Test at the beginning of their training or competition season.
The lactate threshold is the exercise intensity at which lactate (a byproduct of anaerobic metabolism) begins to accumulate in the blood at a faster rate than it can be cleared.
🤎 By tracking the heartrate, speed & taking blood samples after every intensity increasement we measure the muscle efficiency, endurance and maximum power output and determine where and how to enhance this. The test is crucial for understanding a horse’s endurance capabilities to:
👉🏻 Prevent injuries
👉🏻 Design tailored training programs
👉🏻 Monitor fitness progress
👉🏻 Avoid overtraining

👉🏻 This horse was suffering from headshaking. Facial hypersensitivity might be one of the causes of this complex syndrome. Headshaking is an abnormal condition where a horse frequently shakes its head without any apparent external stimuli.⚡️ Katleen, our specialist internal medicine with more than 20 years experience in neurologic disaeses in horses, uses electrical stimulation of the infra orbital nerve to treat this condition. This technique offers relief in 60% of the horses. For our expertise, please contact us at [email protected]. #BosdreefEquineClinic #EquineHealth #Neurostimulation #Headshaking #HorseCare
