Cavalor Muscle Cooler Gel 1 Litre (Equine/Human)

Cavalor Muscle Cooler is a cooling gel that promotes recovery in the joints, tendons and muscles. The active ingredients in Cavalor Muscle Cooler support the cool-down and recovery phases by alleviating muscle pain and stiffness in both you and your horse. Cavalor Muscle Cooler’s formula is a combination of several essential oils with specific properties, providing optimum support in the recovery phase.

This special blend of oils ensures a synergetic effect that cools, relaxes the muscles, and combats pain. An optimum cooling-down in combination with the use of Cavalor Muscle Cooler promotes faster recuperation and helps to prevent injuries so that the horse can get back to top performance faster.

Tendons are stiff structures that connect muscle to bone. Tendons cannot shorten or lengthen on their own – this movement is caused by the muscle to which they are attached. Tendon damage is caused by severe overloading or overstretching. A tendon can also be injured by a kick from another horse or from overreach.

When tendons are damaged, antibodies are transported in fluid and oedemas are evident. This process, however, also eliminates healthy tissue. In order to prevent further damage to tendons, this natural healing process should be tempered without being curbed.

The blood supply in tendons is poor compared to other structures in the body. This impairs the supply of nutrients and the elimination of waste products, slowing recovery. Tendon injuries should be treated as quickly as possible and the tendons should be supported through preventive measures.

And what about the muscles?
If the muscles are not adequately prepared for effort or if exercise is harder than usual, the walls of the muscle fibres may also rupture . The body reacts by sending antibodies to the damaged zones. An inflammatory reaction develops. Damage to the muscles leads to the release of substances which activate the nerves in the muscles. These make the horse’s muscles painful and stiff.

Muscle soreness mostly occurs about 12 hours after exercise and is most severe about 24–48 hours after exercise. The muscle fibres recover from acute damage after 3–4 days, but may take up to 4–6 weeks to completely recover and become stronger. Accelerating muscle recovery means that the body can do hard work again sooner.

COOLING DOWN, ESSENTIAL FOR HEALTHY TENDONS & MUSCLES
Just as it is with warming up, cooling down should be an essential part of every training. The muscle metabolism that is set in motion needs time to settle down again. Finish your training or effort with a 10-minute low-intensity trot. This ensures that the built up lactic acid can be broken down again. It is important to cool the legs properly afterwards. Cooling with water or ice is essential because this reaches all the way into the tissues beneath
the skin.

Cooling reduces swelling, but it can also help with quick pain relief as it desensitizes the nerves that conduct pain.
