Breathing & Performance Explained
Here’s how our aromatic botanicals help horses feel clear and comfortable during work, travel, and recovery.
Camphor
Creates a brisk, cooling sensation that helps horses feel clearer through the nasal passages.
Eucalyptus
Invigorating aroma that supports a sense of open, easy breathing—perfect for dusty arenas and warm-ups.
Cedarwood
A grounded, woodsy note that helps keep horses calm and focused while maintaining steady breathing.
Peppermint
Crisp, refreshing scent that complements camphor and eucalyptus, enhancing the sensation of clear airflow.
How to apply: Use a light, even layer on the nostrils and along the jowl line. Avoid eyes and mucous membranes. Do not exceed 3× daily.
For external use on horses only. Not a drug; not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease. Consult your veterinarian for respiratory concerns.
Environmental Tips
Simple barn hygiene and airflow practices go a long way in reducing dust, pollen, and irritants. Use Breathe to Run as part of a holistic strategy for respiratory comfort.
Improve Ventilation
Keep doors and windows open when weather allows. Use safe fans to increase airflow and reduce dust concentration.
Minimize Dust Sources
Choose low-dust bedding and store hay off the ground. Wet down dusty aisles or arenas before riding.
Daily Clean-Up
Remove soiled bedding and manure often. Regular cleaning reduces ammonia and airborne irritants that can inflame airways.
Haul Smart
Sweep trailers, dampen bedding before loading, and allow fresh air circulation during travel to limit dust buildup.
