therapeutic shoeing

Therapeutic shoeing involves customizing horse shoes to improve a horse’s hoof health, manage pain, and address specific medical conditions. Farriers use specialized techniques and materials to support proper hoof alignment, reduce strain on joints, and enhance mobility. This treatment is often used for horses with lameness, injuries, or hoof diseases to promote healing and comfort. By carefully shaping and fitting the shoes, therapeutic shoeing helps maintain or restore the horse's overall soundness and well-being.
