A Thermal Insight
Equine / Veterinary
Whether you are buying, selling or just looking for a routine infrared scan of your horse, EquineIR can prove invaluable to your finances and your horse's health.
Before Equine Thermography, veterinarians could only locate a problem with observation or palpation but with equine thermography, an abnormality can show tissue that’s stressed before the affected tissue becomes damaged.

MUSCLE / NERVE INJURY
Since animals cannot speak, it has been difficult for caretakers to truly identify hidden or masked conditions. Now with infrared thermal imaging, many of these physiological and anatomical issues are exposed at a much earlier stage. Early detection = early prevention.

Since animals cannot speak, it has been difficult for caretakers to truly identify hidden or masked conditions. Now with infrared thermal imaging, many of these physiological and anatomical issues are exposed at a much earlier stage. Early detection = early prevention.
Anatomical imaging, such as x-ray, lacks specificity and fails in the ability to see soft tissue conditions. Physiological imaging, such as infrared imaging has the ability to not only see tissue conditions but can also recognize areas that are indicative to anatomical issues.
Saddle Fit
A horse’s saddle should fit correctly and have even bearing on the horse’s back. A thermal review of the horse and the saddle can show when pressure points are unevenly distributed, therefore causing discomfort to the horse and rider.

Testimonials
“I received the reports and they are awesome! Thank you so much. It is very interesting to read and makes so much sense to me. Now my trainer and I are taking the next steps to help Allie.”

BEFORE SCAN:
“I am interested in having a scan of my horse that has been having leg issues for 5 months. After spending $3500 on diagnostics we still have no answer as to where the problem is. I was told not to spend any more money and get another horse or get a $3500 MRI. Currently she can’t do anything other than walk. She is my baby and I am devastated. Out of funds and emotions high could you give me an idea of cost? Thank you.”
AFTER SCAN:
“I wanted to thank you for coming out and scanning ‘Sally’. The interp was very enlightening, it makes the puzzle pieces fit.”
