| The goal of Step Ahead Farm Consultations is to encourage both owners and their veterinarians to believe that horses with catastrophic wounds can be healed and returned to a cosmetically pleasing competitive condition using our techniques. Our techniques employed in wound healing are part of a concept still under study and they continue to change as new discoveries are made. The guidelines Step Ahead Farm follows are simple: Wound healing is based on blood supply, not antibiotic therapy. Bandaging plays a critical part in enhancing tissue growth and reducing granulation tissue overgrowth (proud flesh). Exercise during the healing and recovery period is a critical part of returning the horse to performance level. Click here to view items we suggest keeping in your emergency kit. |
