Application: What, Why, and How (Contracted Tendon Support)
- What: Corrects contracted tendons in foals and adults, improves limb alignment, and supports tendon lengthening
- Why: Combines biomechanical taping, muscle relaxation, and nutrition for measurable daily improvement—no need to restrict movement
- How: Use EquiTecs 4-way stretch tape (2"/3", ~50% stretch) for restrictive force on the front of the fetlock/toe. Always include muscle relaxation taping (2-way tape, per protocol). For pigeon-toed foals, add an angular limb application. Begin as early as possible and maintain daily consistency. Never restrict movement; combine with proper minerals and magnesium
Unique Clinical Notes
- Root cause is often mineral deficiency (in utero or post-injury)
- Movement is essential—never restrict foals; more movement = faster healing
- Persistence and consistency are key (treat as a daily commitment)
- Use a ruler to objectively measure progress at the same location each time
- For severe cases, a shin splint + vetwrap can provide added stability
- Always include the muscle relaxation component for complete results
Common Questions Answered
- How do I access? Instantly via the EquiTecs App on any device. Lifetime access included.
- What do I need? EquiTecs 4-way stretch tape (2"/3"), 2-way tape for muscle relaxation, clean/dry area, and 44 minutes.
- How does it work? Tape applies force to lengthen tendons, corrects limb alignment, and supports muscle relaxation. No movement restriction needed.
- Is it safe? Yes—tape is engineered for horse hair and designed to “give way” if misapplied. Always coordinate with your vet for diagnosis and ongoing care.
Markers of Success
- Progressive reduction in fetlock drop and improved toe position
- Measurable daily improvement (use a ruler for tracking)
- Improved movement quality and confidence
- For pigeon-toed foals: leg realignment toward proper biomechanics
