Laminitis

Laminitis is a condition that affects the hooves causing lameness. Depending on the severity of the case it can be painful and even deadly. The laminae becomes inflamed and breaks down. This leads to pain in the hoof capsule and coronet band. The coffin bone can sometimes detach from the hoof wall and then puncture the sole of the hoof. Avoiding this outcome is the utmost goal when treating laminitis.

GluShu can help with laminitis as it elevates the foot and provides support. It accomplishes this without the additional trauma of hammering a standard horseshoe into place.
