Hoof Balm is a soft, brown coloured balm containing natural based ingredients designed to:

• Treat and prevent Thrush
• Prevent sole bruises turning into abscesses
• Harden soft, flakey soles
• Create a protective layer on the hoof sole (and exposed areas), to help prevent microorganisms penetrating and creating infection

Ingredients include: Natural sourced wax & grease – creates the balm texture Plant resin – adherence and protection Aromatic Compounds – antiseptic Inorganic Copper salt – anti fungal Essential oils – antibacterial/antifungal and strengthening

Direction for use: Clean hoof using a pick, then a clean hoof knife to remove as much mud and debris (& flakey sole) as possible from sole and frog area (particularly from around the collateral grooves). Use extra care to remove any debris and thrush infection as this can be very sensitive Using a clean finger, hoof pick or knife, scoop out balm from the container Press the balm into the collateral grooves around the frog, ensuring there is a 1-2mm layer covering the area (press deeply to make sure it contacts all surrounding tissue) Scoop out more balm and fill the central groove in the frog, then spread the putty over the sole, again making sure there is a 1-2mm layer evenly spread. Apply weekly.
