Equine Dynasplint^® Systems –The Gentle Solution

Dynasplint Systems, Inc. developed the Equine Systems to treat various conditions found in horses ranging in age from foal to an adult. These have also been effective in treating alpacas, and llamas. Most commonly, Equine Dynasplint^® Systems are used to treat flexural contractures, angular limb deformities, and laxity problems. As with all Dynasplint^® Systems the Equine Systems apply a low-load, prolonged-duration stretch (LLPS) or stress, are fully adjustable, comfortable, and conveniently labeled for easy application.

LLPS has been used successfully for more than 50 years in human application to treat joint stiffness and contractures caused by shortened connective tissue. The spring-loaded Dynasplint^® Systems constantly seek the patient's available end range of motion and continue to gently stretch the joint. Dynasplint^® Systems technology applies LLPS to permanently lengthen soft tissue using the principle of Total End Range Time (TERT).

We also use this technology to apply a low level stress to help correct angular limb deformities. When you use our Equine Systems to treat laxity problems, we reverse our systems to assist in relieving forces on the injured soft tissue.
