Our best-selling Ice Vibe Boots are portable massage boots with hot/cold inserts that can be used before or after exercise. This guide will show how to correctly fit and care for your ice-vibe boots.

How to Use your Ice Vibe Boots:

  1. Take your vibrating panel, after charging, and insert it into your ice vibe boot.
  2. Take your cold pack out of the freezer.
  3. Wrap the cold pack around your horse’s leg ensuring the Velcro, labelled top is both at the top and pulled backwards in the direction of your horse’s tail and the Velcro is closed facing towards you for a secure fit.
  4. Place ice vibe boot at the back of the horse’s leg and wrap it around the cold pack ensuring the on button is at the back of the tendon.
  5. Secure the Velcro straps around the ice vibe boot, wrapping them backwards towards the tail
  6. Hold down the ‘on’ button symbol for 3 seconds at the back of the ice vibe boot to activate the panel and press 1-3 times for selected vibration setting.

*You may also use ice vibe boots without the cold pack before and after exercise

Testimonials

Horseware Hero Event Rider, Michael Jung, uses Ice Vibe boots on his horses. The World, Olympic and European Champion Event Rider said 

“I am very convinced of the Ice-Vibe boots, we use them every day at the yard and at shows. Finally, a product that reduces inflammation and improves the healing process.”

“I purchased these to use on a horse that was having issues with a tendon. They are very convenient to use. My horse stands still with no issues while putting them on, standing for the treatment and removal. I think these are great boots. Will be easy to travel to bring them to shows and use before and after I show.”  Tiffany, North American Rider

“The Ice Vibe boots are an excellent cold therapy system. We use the boots on the horses after strenuous exercise and find them to be very effective and easy to use. The newly developed longer boots are ideal for hind legs and the horses seem comfortable wearing them. In my opinion they are the most effective and user friendly way of cooling.” William Fox-Pitt, International Eventer
