Whether you are buying, insuring or just looking for a routine infrared scan of your horse, EquineIR is invaluable for your finances and the horse's health.
Before Thermography, Veterinarians could only locate problems using traditional methods such as observation and palpation. Now, using advanced EquineIR thermography, abnormalities present stressed tissues even before damage occurs. Thermal imaging for horses is a modern way of Recognizing the Horse in Pain.This methodology has been developed and refined over the past twenty-five years and has been proven to be an effective imaging technique for the following:
Pre-purchase exam
Pre-race exam
Hoof balancing
Saddle fit
Track footing
Joint Inflammation
General diagnostics
Equine insurance baseline
Whether a horse is purchased for personal or business reasons, ownership represents a significant investment of time, money and resources.As we know, horses seem to be prone to illness, accidents and injury so having a baseline infrared scan of your horse for you and your Equine insurance carrier is just good business since.
Saddle FitIR
"My horse's saddle hurts my horse"
A horse's saddle should fit correctly and have even bearing on the horse's back. An Equine Infrared Scan of the horse and the saddle can show where pressure points are unevenly distributed, therefore causing discomfort to the horse and the rider. Now the horse's owner or caretaker with the aid of Infrared Thermography can visually see the problem areas.

"Too often the horse is blamed for being bad, or intentionally trying to anger its owner. We must learn to take a step back and listen to what the horse is trying to tell us. Most behavioral and training issues are merely the horse's expression of pain," veterinarian Dr. Joanna Robson from her book "Recognizing the Horse in Pain."
Dr. Robson provides the Technical Directorship for EquineIR through Integrated Equine Infrared.
