Huf processors treat limb disorders
During your daily work, you always encounter problems in the area of limbs. Sometimes it is spat, bowl or there are other arthrosis. You have to do it with Hufrehe, you encounter problems in the tendon species, the armchair or you stand against knee problems.You did your best and worked the hoof optimally for the horse. Nevertheless, your abdominal feeling tells you, the horse needs more, because you ask yourself:How long does my good work on the hoof last when it “top” is still wrong?
New profession
The limbs are directly connected to the hoof, its processing or its fitting. The hoof gets its shape through the anatomy and movement of the horse. Special diseases in limbs can therefore burden the hoof and its shape. Diseases often cause the hoof to lose its natural balance and exceed its limits. The most common diseases that affect you in your work at the hoof are:
- Arthrosis in the forefoot
- Shell
- Spa
- Knee problem
- Shoulder problems
- Problems of tendons and armchairs
- Steilhufe and flax
Hufre
These diseases will throw you back a piece of your hoof treatment. You notice: Without these diseases being alleviated, it is difficult for you to achieve further strokes. This is precisely where the new profession of the LTZ begins. Become therapeutic hoof workers or hoof technicians and go one step further.
