WHAT HUFZORB IS

Hufzorb boot and Herb bag bundle image

Hufzorb offers a form of treatment that focuses on the natural ability of herbs as healers & the breathability of the hoof itself.

HUFZORB IS DESIGNED FOR STABLED HORSES.
MANY FACTORS CAN LEAD TO THE DETERIORATION OF THE HOOF, AND ADHERE TO A HOST OF DIFFERENT BACTERIAL INFECTIONS. USUALLY THE TREATMENT FOR THESE AILMENTS INVOLVES STABLING. WHILE HORSES ARE STABLED, THEY ARE FORCED TO STAND IN THEIR OWN FAECES AND URINE WHICH CAN FURTHER PROLONG HEALING TIME.

HUFZORB PROVIDES A MEANS OF PROTECTING THE HOOF FROM THE HARMFUL STABLE FLOOR AND KILLING BACTERIA.
BY PENETRATING THE STRUCTURES OF THE HOOF WITH TOPICAL, LEGAL, PROVEN, REMEDIES THAT HAVE A RANGE OF PROPERTIES SUCH AS NATURAL ANTISEPTICS, ANTI-INFLAMMATORY, ANTIBACTERIAL, ANTIFUNGAL AND ANALGESIC.

IT IS ABLE TO PREVENT THE HOOF FROM OVERHEATING AND SOFTENING THROUGH SWEATING, AS IT IS DESIGNED TO BE BREATHABLE, PARTICULARLY AROUND THE CORONET BAND.

THE MOISTURE FROM THE MIXTURE WILL NOT EFFECT THE HOOF WALL  AS THEY ARE NOT ENCLOSED. THE BOOT ALLOWS AIR - FLOW AROUND THESE STRUCTURES.

 IT HAS BEEN PROVEN THAT HORSES CAN ABSORB SUBSTANCES THROUGH THE STRUCTURES OF THE FOOT, IN THE SAME WAY THAT TOPICAL TREATMENTS APPLIED TO THE SKIN CAN BE SYSTEMICALLY ABSORBED.

HUFZORB HAS ULTRA FINE MESH SEWN INTO THE INSIDE.  THE HERBS ARE MIXED INTO A BLEND WHICH RESEMBLES LOOSE TEA. THE HERBS ARE ADDED TO THE BOOT AND SHAKEN TO DISTRIBUTE REASONABLY EVENLY. TO ALLOW THE HERBS TO RELEASE THEIR THERAPEUTIC CHEMICALS, THEY ARE SOAKED IN A WARM WATER FOR 10 SECONDS THEN THE EXCESS WATER IS ALLOWED TO DRAIN OUT. 

ONCE SOAKED AND DRAINED, THE BOOT CAN BE PLACED OVER THE HORSE'S HOOF. THE PROCESS ESSENTIALLY CREATES A TEA BAG EFFECT AS THE HERB BENEFITS ARE ABSORED THROUGH THE MESH INSIDE THE BOOT.

1.       HAND PICKED AND MIXED HERBAL MIXTURES

2.      BIODEGRADABLE PACKAGING

3.      EASY SLIP ON DESIGN

4.      SECURE FETLOCK STRAPS

5.      MADE FROM STRONG MICRO FIBRE MATERIAL

6.      ADDED CUT-OUTS SO THE CORONET BAND CAN BREATH

7.     KEEPS FAECES AND URINE AWAY FROM HEALING HOOVES

8.      HERBAL BENEFITS ARE ABSORBED WITHIN THE BOOT

9.       FILL THE MESH POCKET INSIDE THE BOOT WITH HERBS

WATER WILL SLOWLY EVAPORATE FROM THE HERBS OVER TIME AND WILL EVENTUALLY COMPRESS INTO A FIRM MOULD OFF THE UNDERSIDE OF THE HORSE'S HOOF. THE HERBS ACT IN THE SAME WAY THAT MUD WOULD PACK INTO THE FOOT NATURALLY SO IT WILL NOT CAUSE EXCESS PRESSURE OR DISCOMFORT.

THE HERBS WILL NOT EXHAUST ALL OF THEIR MEDICINAL PROPERTIES IN ONE TREATMENT, AND CAN BE REUSED BY BREAKING UP AND SOAKING WITH WATER AGAIN. WE RECOMMEND 2 USES PER PORTION OF THE CHOSEN TREATMENT.

2x uses per portion
