BEMER Rug + Boots
A BEMER horse rug (blanket) is a type of Pulsed Electromagnetic Field (PEMF) therapy designed to stimulate blood flow in the smallest blood vessels (microcirculation). It is widely used by owners of competition, rehabilitation, and older horses. Potential benefits
Many owners and therapists report that BEMER therapy may help with:
• Improved circulation – The manufacturer states that it stimulates microcirculation, helping deliver oxygen and nutrients to tissues.
• Recovery after exercise – Often used after training or competition to support muscle recovery and reduce fatigue.
• Muscle relaxation – Some horses appear calmer and more relaxed during and after treatment, possibly due to increased parasympathetic ("rest and digest") activity.
• Support during rehabilitation – Frequently incorporated into rehabilitation programmes for tendon, ligament and muscle injuries, alongside veterinary treatment and controlled exercise.
• Maintaining older horses – Some owners find it helps keep senior horses more comfortable and supple.
• Pre-competition preparation – Many riders use the blanket before exercise to encourage relaxation and loosen muscles.
What horse owners commonly report Many owners describe improvements such as:
• Greater willingness to stretch and work.
• A looser way of going.
• Better relaxation before competitions.
• Faster recovery after hard work.
• Improved comfort in older or stiff horses.
