Travel Smart – Trailering Recovery Tips with Draw It Out® Liniment

Introduction:

Show season. Rodeo weekends. Cross-country clinics. Wherever you’re headed, one thing’s guaranteed—your horse is doing way more than just standing around in the trailer.

Trailering might look simple, but for your horse, it’s a core-engaged balancing act that strains muscles and reduces circulation. The longer the haul, the more tension builds.

That’s why your pre- and post-travel care routine needs one must-have ingredient: Draw It Out® Liniment. 💪🐎

1. Understand the Stress of Travel

Whether it’s 20 minutes or 12 hours, trailering engages your horse’s body in subtle, exhausting ways.

✅ What Happens During a Haul:
✔ Constant micro-adjustments to balance
✔ Back, loins, shoulders, and legs stay engaged
✔ Circulation slows with lack of movement
✔ Inflammation and stocking up can creep in fast

💡 Pro Tip: Even calm travelers benefit from muscle support before and after every trip.

2. Pre-Trip Prep with Liniment

Start strong by setting your horse up for a more comfortable haul.

✅ Before You Load Up:
✔ Apply Draw It Out® Liniment to shoulders, back, and legs
✔ Gently massage to encourage circulation and muscle relaxation
✔ Especially helpful for older horses, nervous haulers, or those prone to stiffness

🌿 Why it works:
✔ Non-greasy
✔ Show-safe
✔ Alcohol-free and gentle for daily use

3. After the Haul: Cool-Down & Care

Once you reach your destination, it’s time to unwind those hard-working muscles.

✅ Your Post-Travel Routine:
✔ Walk your horse for 10–15 minutes to loosen up and increase blood flow
✔ Reapply Draw It Out® Liniment to legs and loins
✔ Use under standing wraps if your horse will be stalling overnight

💡 Pro Tip: Even after short hauls, a quick liniment application can help prevent swelling and soreness before it starts.
