EquiCryo Therapy
Advanced "Thermal Shock" Recovery | Located at Hansen Dam Horse Park
State-of-the-art clinical recovery is now available on-site. Utilizing the FDA-registered SubZero device, we deliver pressurized liquid CO₂ at -110°F to create a rapid "Thermal Shock." This advanced therapy flushes inflammation, manages pain, and accelerates soft tissue healing in just 90 seconds—saving you the cost of a vet farm-call for routine maintenance.
Available for all Hansen Dam resident horses and trailer-in clients.
The Science: Why it only takes 90 seconds
Traditional icing takes 20 minutes and only cools superficially. The SubZero uses pressurized CO₂ to drop the skin temperature to 39.6°F in under 30 seconds. This extreme, rapid cooling creates a Thermal Shock that triggers an immediate physiological reflex in the horse's body, delivering four principal effects:
Anti-Inflammatory: Rapidly cools the tissue and flushes toxins and edema from the area.
Analgesic: Slows nerve signal transmission to provide instant, natural pain relief.
Vasomotor: Forces rapid constriction and subsequent dilation of blood vessels, flooding the area with oxygen-rich blood.
Muscle Relaxant: Reduces muscle spasms and tension by slowing nerve activity.
In the competitive equestrian world, managing your horse's health is a significant financial investment. Whether you are dealing with a sudden bout of horse tendon swelling or managing chronic arthritis, the cost of veterinary care and forced stall rest adds up quickly.
At EquiTread Los Angeles, we believe in complete transparency. We also believe that premium equine sports therapy Los Angeles should deliver immediate, measurable results. Here is a clear breakdown of our pricing structure for equine cryotherapy Los Angeles, and why upgrading your recovery protocol actually saves you money in the long run.
The EquiTread Pricing Structure
We do not charge by the minute. Because our clinical grade technology acts incredibly fast, we charge based on the specific areas being treated and the outcomes we deliver.
Base Session and First Area: $150 This covers your initial consultation, a complete visual and thermal assessment, and the full cryotherapy treatment of the primary targeted area (such as a single bowed tendon, a swollen hock, or a sore suspensory branch).
Additional Treatment Areas: $50 per area The most intensive part of any session is the initial diagnostic scan and equipment preparation. Once the baseline assessment is complete, treating secondary locations is highly efficient. If you want to treat the opposite leg for preventative maintenance or add a sore stifle to the session, it is only fifty dollars per additional zone.
What You Are Actually Paying For
When you book a session with us, you are not just paying for cold air. You are investing in a comprehensive clinical service designed to keep your horse out of the veterinary clinic.
1. Diagnostic Thermal Imaging We do not guess where the inflammation is hiding. Every EquiTread session includes the use of a high resolution thermal imaging camera. As supported by diagnostic research from The Horse Magazine, thermal cameras detect early heat signatures before physical swelling even appears. We take photos before and after your session so you have visual, undeniable proof that the treatment successfully pulled the heat out of the leg.
2. The Speed of Thermal Shock Traditional icing takes twenty to thirty minutes of standing in a wet wash rack. Our devices utilize pressurized liquid carbon dioxide to drop the tissue temperature to thirty nine degrees Fahrenheit in less than ninety seconds. According to the experts at the American Association of Equine Practitioners, applying rapid, intense cold is the single most effective way to halt an inflammatory cascade. We deliver superior equine tendon recoverywithout taking up your entire afternoon.
3. Premium Clinical Care Anywhere Whether you haul into our facility or we bring the clinic directly to your stall, your horse receives the exact same standard of elite care. We deliver targeted pain relief and swelling reduction in a relaxed environment, preventing the stress that often exacerbates acute injuries.
The Cost of Downtime
The true value of cryotherapy for horses in Los Angeles is measured in the veterinary bills you avoid. According to rehabilitation experts at Equus Magazine, catching microtrauma early and aggressively flushing inflammation prevents minor strains from turning into season ending tears. Spending one hundred fifty dollars today to rapidly flush a hot tendon is infinitely cheaper than spending thousands of dollars on ultrasounds, regenerative injections, and six months of stall rest later.
