America Cryo Equine Shockwave Therapy
The America Cryo Shockwave uses a radial shockwave to provide a highly effective treatment for orthopedic and soft tissue injuries in equine sports medicine.
In veterinary or rehabilitation settings, the Shockwave addresses musculoskeletal disorders and returns the horse to work within an optimal timeframe.
Shockwave is the leading choice of veterinarians, trainers and therapists for musculoskeletal disorders, ligament or tendon injury, returning the horse to work more quickly and with lasting results. Shockwave is also a must-have tool for post-work recovery in elite equine athletes, and is chosen by many top riders and trainers.
Benefits of Horse Shockwave Therapy
How it works:
The radial shockwave therapy device accelerates a projectile through handheld applicator, striking the

applicator tip and creating a pressure wave. These waves are directed through the applicator held against the skin, moving through the tissue towards at a penetration depth of up to 6 cm.
This stimulates a cellular response, with improved blood supply and increased cell proliferation leading to regeneration of tendon, ligament, and musculoskeletal tissue.
Equine shockwave therapy safely and effectively addresses a range of musculoskeletal injuries and conditions.
- Orthopedic: Stimulates new bone growth and fracture repair, and cartilage production in joints.
- Tendons and ligaments: Prompts release of healing and growth factors, with improved collagen production.
- Wound healing: Improved blood supply and cellular stimulation leads to tissue regeneration and rapid healing.
- Analgesia: Nerve fiber stimulation blocks an increase in pain stimuli and leads to pain reduction (gate control theory).
