Deep Relief & Steady Recovery: Winter Support for Hard-Working Horses

Deep Relief & Steady Recovery: Winter Support for Hard-Working Horses

When the work doesn’t stop for weather, recovery becomes the advantage. This week’s plan focuses on deep comfort after rides—using Draw It Out® Gel for broad coverage and MasterMudd™ EquiBrace for pinpoint relief.

Why recovery matters more in winter

Cold air tightens muscle fibers and slows circulation. After training or turnout, a short recovery routine keeps blood flow moving and stiffness at bay. Draw It Out® 16 oz Gel delivers full-leg comfort without sting; MasterMudd™ EquiBrace targets joints and deep-tissue areas that need extra attention.

Post-Work Recovery Plan

  1. Step 1 – Leg Flush: After grooming off sweat or mud, apply Draw It Out® 16 oz Gel evenly from knee/hock to fetlock. Massage until absorbed—no rinse required.
  2. Step 2 – Target Relief: Work MasterMudd™ EquiBrace into shoulders, stifles, or back muscles where tension builds. Arnica and Collagen support deep recovery without greasy residue.
  3. Step 3 – Cover and Cool: Apply a breathable cooler for 15–20 minutes to support circulation as horses wind down.

Pro tip from the barn

Alternate the two products—use Draw It Out® Gel daily for maintenance and introduce MasterMudd™ 2–3 times per week after hard work or trailering. Consistent use prevents tightness before it starts.
