Learn More About The Horseware Rambo Ionic Range
The Horseware Rambo Ionic range contains some of the smartest technology around to help improve your horse’s circulation along with many other health benefits. These products can really help to promote healthy body tissue and also offer fantastic benefits when used on a horse before and after work.
The Science Behind The Rambo Ionic Range
The Horseware Rambo Ionic range uses negative ion therapy to help your horse’s body function at it’s very best. This involves the use of Tourmaline. This is a natural crystal that releases an electric charge when it is ground down. This charge will convert molecules in the surrounding air into negatively charged ions.
Negative ions are absorbed through the skin into the body. This works for both animals and humans. Once in the body they can convert the charge of molecules withing the body to be negatively charged. The energy released when this happens helps with the regulation of many of the body’s functions. It improves the hydration capacity in the blood stream. This makes blood (and other fluids) more mobile so it can move more efficiently through veins and arteries. This improved circulation is great for getting plenty of oxygen to muscles all around the body.
The negative ions also help to encourage a faster metabolic rate. The faster and more efficiently the body can metabolise energy, the better.
Serotonin, the hormone linked with feeling happy, requires an oxidation process. The improved oxygen circulation can therefore reduce stress and relieve pain in your horse. On top of that, the negative charge can help to regulate enzymes within the body and so help to maintain a strong immune system.

Horseware® Rambo® Ionic Stable Boots
These boots are perfect for using in the stable and also when travelling. They have a flexible Neoprene outer to allow the horse to move comfortably. It is also perforated which prevents the legs getting too hot. The inner padded liner is where the ion technology comes into play. This lining can be removed as it is attached by Velcro and the boots are fully machine washable.
The Tourmaline is found on the fabric of the padded liner so that it is close to the skin. This allows the negative ions to get to work in increasing circulation in the legs and, by doing so, moving any build up of fluids. You are advised to start using the boots for around 2 hours before building up to your horse wearing them for longer periods. These boots can be used before exercise as a means of preparing the muscles by increasing the levels of oxygen they receive. You can use them again after exercise to reduce lactic acid build up. This can help to prevent stiffness and soreness after hard work.

Target the whole body, including the large muscles at the shoulders and hind quarters, for even greater effect on your horse's health.
