How to Use a Thermotex Far Infrared Hood Equine Therapy System

Applying a Thermotex far infrared hood equine therapy system to the sinuses and throat area increases circulation and speeds the healing process. As a result, it is very effective in treating respiratory disorders including horse strangles, sinusitis, and gutter pouch. Ensure the far infrared hood is properly cleaned and disinfected after use to prevent bacterial contamination.

Please read the instruction guidelines below carefully to ensure proper use of your Thermotex far infrared hood equine therapy system.

Step by Step Instruction Guidelines:

Make sure the animal is secure by tying it up or placing it in cross ties.
Loosen the halter one or two notches and brush away any dirt away from the head.
Plug in the hood equine therapy system and place it on the high setting for a few minutes to pre-warm the hood.
Use the Velcro straps to fasten the equine hood comfortably on the animal.
Use the hood appliance on the high setting for 10 minutes then turn the heat down to the low setting until the therapy session is complete.
At the end of the session, disinfect the inside of the hood equine therapy system and allow it to dry thoroughly before storing it in a clean dry place.
You may want to sponge off the animal’s head after treatment.
