Vetletics are animal lovers, but we are also scientists and engineers. Evidence based solutions are at the core of what we do.
Dynamic compression therapy has been studied in humans for decades and a sample of this research is available here.
We are excited to have been part of one of the first dynamic compression therapy studies in horses. This study, performed at NC State University Veterinary School of Medicine and published in the American Journal of Veterinary Research in April 2023, showed that the use of the EQ Press significantly increased lymphatic flow in healthy equine forelimbs.
This press release from NC State gives some great insight as to the importance of this study. The study has also been featured in The Horse, Paulick Report, Equine Science Update, Vet Practice Magazine, The Hoof Blog, DVM360, and Bioengineer.org among many others.
