Benefits of Regular Use
• Nourishment and Protection: Regular application keeps the skin and hooves hydrated, heals minor irritations, and protects against environmental damage.
• Comfort: Well-moisturized skin and hooves improve your horse's overall comfort, particularly during active periods or exposure to the elements.
By following these steps, you can ensure your horse's sensitive areas are well cared for with regular use of the balm.

How to Use

1. Usage Instructions:
Apply a small amount of balm to your horse's nose, elbows, or hooves as needed, gently massaging it in. Use regularly to keep the skin and hooves moisturized and protected, especially after exposure to harsh weather or rough surfaces.
2. Avoid Overuse:
Use the balm sparingly, especially on hooves, to avoid excessive softness that could affect walking. For sensitive areas like the nose and elbows, a thin layer will suffice to ensure full absorption.
3. Post-Application:
o Allow Absorption: After applying the balm, give it time to absorb before allowing your horse to roam on rough surfaces, as this can rub off the balm before it fully penetrates the skin or hooves.
o Prevent Licking or Rubbing: While safe if your horse licks a small amount, it's best to distract your horse to allow the balm to absorb properly. Gentle brushing or a treat can help occupy their attention.
4. Frequency:
o Routine Use: Apply the balm 1-2 times a day or as needed. For dry or cracked areas, you may want to apply it more frequently, especially in cold weather or dry conditions.
o Monitor and Adjust: Keep an eye on your horse’s skin or hooves, adjusting the application frequency based on improvement or if any reaction occurs.

Tips for Effective Use
• Patch Test: Before using the balm extensively, do a small patch test to ensure there are no adverse reactions.
• Regular Inspection: Check your horse’s nose, elbows, and hooves regularly to monitor the condition and adjust the use as needed.
• Consult a Vet: If your horse has persistent skin issues, consult a veterinarian before continuing use.
