Testimonial Tuesday’s 🎉

“Just a little thank you and an update on your amazing product, CryoComfort Crème.

It has played such an important role in my boy’s recovery and rehab after he developed laminitis. A vet who assisted us emphasized how crucial it is to keep the hoof healthy and happy during recovery, and he suggested applying a product around the coronet band to encourage hoof regrowth.

At his first visit, the vet noted that my horse’s hooves were in poor condition from all the stress of the illness and laminitis. That’s when I started using CryoComfort Crème and what a difference it’s made! When the vet returned for a follow up, he couldn’t believe the visible improvement in his hoof quality and condition. 👏🏻

I’ve since learned that products like CryoComfort are becoming more widely used in hoof rehab routines to reduce inflammation, support circulation, and promote healthy growth from the coronet band down. I now believe this should be a regular part of hoof care, not just during recovery.

So going forward, CryoComfort Crème will be a staple in my horses’ care routines just a scoop massaged gently around the hoof wall and where the hairline meets. Simple, soothing, and now, absolutely essential.

Thank you for being a crucial part of his healing journey. ❤️‍🩹”
