Can I use Shockwave and Hofmag on my horse for the same injury?
This is a question I get asked all the time as a HofMag PEMF therapist, so I wanted to explain how these two therapies can actually complement each other.
A perfect example is a suspensory ligament strain, a common injury in performance horses.
πΉ HofMag PEMF Therapy:
Reduces swelling and inflammation
Improves circulation to the injured area
Supports natural healing and pain relief
Prepares the tissue for deeper therapies
πΉ Shockwave Therapy:
Stimulates collagen production and tissue repair
Promotes stronger ligament healing
Ideal for chronic or deeper structural injuries
Why combine them?
HofMag helps the horse feel more comfortable and reduces acute swelling, making shockwave therapy more effective and easier to tolerate. Together, they accelerate recovery and support long-term strength, helping your horse return to work safely.
