Horse Laminae Support Products

What are laminae in horses? They are the soft tissue that anchors the hoof wall to the coffin bone inside the hoof. When this is inflamed, laminitis develops. You may see signs of laminitis in a horse when they have hot hooves, are reluctant to walk, and have trouble turning. Your veterinarian should be your first call to get a diagnosis and develop a plan to provide hoof support for laminitis.

Many laminitis cases are caused by equine metabolic syndromes, like insulin resistance and Cushing's disease. A laminitis care plan should include equine metabolic syndrome treatment to help the horse hoof laminae heal. Part of Cushing's disease in horses' treatment should include farrier work, veterinary care, and dietary supplements.

Other supplements, including those for pain relief and support and hoof supplements, can also help.
