Treatment of lammness is most successful when it addresses the cause of lameness. In general, it helps to reduce your horse's weight and amount of exercise, and have your horse stand on soft flooring, undergo hydrotherapy, receive optimum nutrition, and take appropriate pain and anti-inflammatory medications. Acupuncture, homeopathy, and moxa therapy help many lame horses. Some lame horses benefit from shockwave therapy because it tears the tiny blood vessels in the bone's periosteal lining and stimulates healing of an injury the body was ignoring.
