Horses, like humans, can suffer from chronic conditions such as arthritis and lymphangitis that require ongoing management to improve their quality of life. Chronic conditions can be challenging for horse owners, as they often lead to pain, reduced mobility, and limited performance. In this post, part of the "Elevate Your Horse’s Well-Being: The AV Edge Advantage" campaign, we will explore strategies for managing chronic equine conditions and how AV Edge’s products can provide relief, improve mobility, and enhance overall well-being.
Common Chronic Conditions in Horses
Two of the most common chronic conditions that horses experience are arthritis and lymphangitis, which can severely affect a horse's quality of life and performance.
Arthritis in Horses
Arthritis is a degenerative joint disease that affects the cartilage in a horse’s joints. It is most commonly seen in older horses or those that have had high-intensity careers, such as racehorses or show jumpers. Symptoms include stiffness, swelling, and pain in the affected joints, which can lead to reduced mobility and overall discomfort.
Lymphangitis in Horses
Lymphangitis is an inflammation of the lymphatic system, typically affecting a horse’s legs. This condition can cause severe swelling, pain, and lameness, and often becomes a chronic problem once a horse experiences an initial episode. Horses with chronic lymphangitis may experience repeated flare-ups, leading to persistent discomfort and decreased mobility.
Both of these conditions can be challenging to manage, but with the right strategies, it’s possible to improve your horse’s comfort and help them lead an active life.
Strategies for Managing Chronic Equine Conditions
Managing chronic conditions in horses requires a holistic approach that addresses not only the symptoms but also the underlying causes. Here are some effective strategies to help manage chronic conditions like arthritis and lymphangitis:
Implementing a Regular Exercise Program
Gentle exercise is one of the best ways to maintain joint mobility and prevent further deterioration in horses with arthritis. Low-impact activities, such as walking or swimming, can help reduce stiffness and improve circulation, keeping your horse’s joints flexible and reducing discomfort.
For horses with lymphangitis, maintaining regular movement is essential to stimulate the lymphatic system and prevent swelling. Short, frequent walks can help reduce fluid buildup in the legs and improve overall circulation.
Dietary Adjustments
Diet plays a significant role in managing chronic conditions. A well-balanced diet rich in omega-3 fatty acids, antioxidants, and anti-inflammatory compounds can help reduce inflammation in arthritic joints and support the immune system in horses with lymphangitis.
Non-Invasive Support with EF Technology
One of the most effective ways to manage chronic conditions without invasive treatments is to use AV Edge’s MOJO products, which utilise Equine Energy Field (EF) Technology. This advanced technology works with your horse’s natural energy field to reduce pain, promote healing, and improve overall well-being.
Introducing AV Edge Products for Chronic Condition Management
MOJO Classic Horse Patches: Supporting Joint Health and Reducing Pain
The MOJO Classic Horse Patches are an excellent solution for managing arthritis in horses. These non-invasive patches work with your horse’s natural body frequencies to promote balance and energy while reducing pain in affected joints.
-
How It Works: EF Technology helps harmonise the horse’s energy field, promoting optimal ATP production (the energy molecule) to support healing and cell regeneration. This helps reduce pain and inflammation in arthritic joints, improving mobility and comfort.
-
Jargon Buster: Think of ATP as your horse’s cellular energy currency. When ATP levels are optimised, your horse’s cells can regenerate and heal faster, reducing pain and promoting well-being.

MOJO Deluxe Horse Pastern Wraps: Enhancing Mobility and Reducing Swelling
For horses dealing with lymphangitis or other chronic leg conditions, the MOJO Deluxe Horse Pastern Wraps provide a natural solution to reduce swelling, improve circulation, and enhance mobility.
-
How It Works: The EF Technology in the pastern wraps stimulates Adenosine Triphosphate (ATP) production, which helps cells regenerate and repair tissue. This is particularly beneficial for reducing inflammation and swelling in the legs, as it promotes better circulation and fluid drainage.
-
Jargon Buster: Think of ATP as the power source that helps your horse’s body heal. By promoting ATP production, these wraps help support the body’s natural healing process.

Real-Life Stories: Managing Chronic Conditions with AV Edge Products
Many horse owners have seen incredible improvements in their horses’ quality of life after incorporating MOJO products into their care routines. For example, a 15-year-old gelding suffering from arthritis was able to regain mobility and reduce pain after just a few weeks of using the MOJO Classic Horse Patches. His owner reported that he was more willing to move, showed less stiffness, and was able to participate in gentle riding activities again.
In another case, a horse dealing with recurring lymphangitis experienced significant relief after wearing the MOJO Deluxe Horse Pastern Wraps. The wraps helped reduce swelling and prevented further flare-ups, allowing the horse to return to a more active lifestyle.
These stories, like the ones shared in previous posts such as “The Benefits of Holistic Health Solutions for Horses”, highlight the effectiveness of EF Technology in supporting chronic condition management and enhancing overall well-being.
