hoof rehabilitation

Hoof rehabilitation is a structured process to restore a horse’s hoof health after injury, disease, or imbalance. It involves careful management of trimming, shoeing, and habitat to promote proper hoof growth and structure. The goal is to reduce pain, improve function, and prevent future issues. This usually includes working with a veterinarian or farrier to create a personalized plan, adjusting daily routines, and sometimes incorporating specialized footwear or therapeutic treatments. Patience is essential, as hoof growth takes time, ensuring the hoof heals correctly and supports healthy movement long-term.
