lose.” Emily stated.
On April 27th, 2016, Emily began
to use Cytowave treatments exclusively
on her horse. After only 4 days of
treatments, Emily noticed the inflammation
had decreased. After the first
week, the inflammation in the rear
legs and the Cannon bone size had
decreased as well. The nodules and
the folds were softer, not as hard to the
touch and the Cytowave boots were
easier to wrap around his legs due to
the decreased swelling.
The shift in her horse’s demeanor
underscored that positive
physical changes were taking place.
“He was more relaxed and comfortable.
When I let him out in the pen,
he was more active, running and
bucking,” Emily said.
After eight (8) days, the inflammation
and Canon bone swelling
continued to decrease. The folds in
the rear legs were not as thick and
were separating. Folds and nodules
were softer and more pliable. There
was still some dampness and oily
feeling in the creases of the back hoof
area but overall, the lesions were
drier and reducing in size. And for
the first time in weeks she was able to
massage his legs without any discomfort.
“He really began enjoying getting his
legs massaged after his treatments,”
Emily continued. “Overall he just
seems really happy. I did not realize
how much the disease had slowly
robbed him of his spirit over the
years because it was so gradual. Once
he started feeling better, I realized I
was getting my old horse back!”
In the span of 10 days, measurements
showed that the swelling had been
substantially reduced. The Canon
bone showed the most dramatic reduction
in size, with the left leg going
from 12 ½” to 10 ½”.
On May 11th, Dr. Royal evaluated
Emily’s horse and he noted that the
Cytowave treatments had drastically
reduced the swelling and inflammation.
He said her horse seemed to
be in very good health and his BAR
(Bright, Alert, Responsive) was
excellent. He was in very good
health, sound, with little sensitivity in
the folds of his legs.
“They were
skeptical at
first. Once
they started
to see results,
it wasn’t too
long before
we heard
from the
Fenway
Foundation.”
