Solaria

A solarium must serve many uses apart from drying horses when they are sweating or have just been washed. The greatest advantage of a solarium is its proven beneficial effects over the horse’s general state of health:
- It has a relaxing effect and helps “loosen up” the whole muscular and tendinous system.
- It effectively helps in many therapies treating a very ample range of physical problems or pains.
- Horses can be washed down after work even in cold weather.
- It contributes to eliminating any excess of lactic acid and metabolic waste.
- It improves the flexibility and general fitness of horses.
- The development of bacteria is reduced and thus the risk of infection (coughing, influenza...).
- It improves blood flow and is extraordinarily useful for back problems and for animals that suffer constant pains.
- It is also beneficial for stallions’ fertility and the quality of mares’ ovulation.
