Fiske’s Hoof and Hide Balm
$ 24.95
Visit product page →Fiske’s Hoof and Hide Balm
Fiske's Hoof and Hide Balm has been tried and tested for over 100 years. It is a 100% natural, multi-purpose solution which is sold in an easy to apply container. This economical product covers the three basic needs of horsecare maintenance - 1. the hoof - 2. the hide - 3. the muscle. It serves the back yard family pet as effectively as it serves the needs of the highly active performance horse.
The ingredients combine to create a horseman's medicinal dream. They consist of a unique blend of cooling herbs and pure essential oils, along with the old faithful's... pine tar and menthol, combined in a non petroleum base and then thickened with raw beeswax. The beeswax thickens the mixture which limits run off waste and still allows it to remain a breathable barrier. The ingredients are gently blended under ideal conditions in our laboratory, thus producing a quality controlled product every time. Fiske's Hoof and Hide Balm is the original recipe and is as reliable today as it was 100 years ago.
It looks like butterscotch sauce, it feels like silk on the skin, and the fragrant medicinal odor changes the smell in the stable.
Each Ingredient is so important to the special receipe, it makes Fiske's what it is today!
Eucalyptus - acts as the driver so the medicine can absorb quickly. Once the medicine is absorbed the bees wax creates a water repellent covering. Euculytus is also wonderful anti fungal and antibacterial oil making it excellent for fungal based skin conditions.
Camphor - is an anti inflammatory and anti fungal oil. Along with treating the skin camphor takes away swelling and bruising from the area.
Wintergreen - is an excellent pain reliever and anti inflammatory. Its main function is to relieve the pain making the horse comfortable and relaxed. This has to be part of treating any condition.
Pine Tar - Is the main and worldliest recognized anti fungal agent in this recipe. It's strength appears to be more enhanced when it is combined with all the other ingredients in the formula.
Bees Wax - covers the area and creates a waxy water repellent breathable band aid. The water and moisture is forced to bead of the horse which helps the horse heal. Water and moisture creates much of the problem in the first place. Today silicones are used to make products water repellent, however the wound cannot breathe and the fungus grows under the silicone rather than killing it. Water and moisture feed the fungus. As well bees wax is a very rich and highly regarded natural anti biotic property, this supports the over all health of the condition.
Menthol Crystals - Menthol is a compound obtained from peppermint oil. The anti-fungal and antibacterial action of Menthol has been studied extensively. Menthol's ability to trigger the cold-sensitive receptors in the skin is responsible for the well known cooling sensation that it generates.
Thymol Crystals - naturally occur in many essential oils such as Thyme essential oil. Thymol has powerful anti-fungal and anti-bacterial properties.

*Supply Based on 1000lb Horse.
Directions for Use:
(for 1000 lb. horse)
Two tablespoons twice daily for the first 20 days. Then administer two tablespoons daily thereafter.Chinese Theory behind Acute Trauma: Herbsmith Acute Trauma is a blend of blood moving herbs. From a traditional Chinese medical standpoint, tissue damage leads to stasis or stagnation of blood. The damage to the affected tissue is evidence of this blood stasis. With time, this stagnation affects the flow of energy, or Qi, to the affected area and long-term damage can result. Herbsmith Acute Trauma is designed to invigorate and move the blood. Without the stagnation of blood, the discomfort and tissue damage is managed and the natural healing process is supported. This blend is effective in ancient theory and in modern practice.
Our herbs are sourced individually from specific providences of China, where the climate and quality of the soil combine to provide a far superior growing environment to anywhere else on the globe. Each batch of herbs is then re-tested in the USA by the FDA to ensure purity, authenticity and safety, guaranteeing they are free of sulfur, heavy metals and bacteria. All Herbsmith formulas are show safe and do not contain any forbidden substances under USEF and FEI rules for horses in competition.

Frequently Asked Questions
What do Chinese herbs do?
Chinese herbs work to address the root causes of underlying disharmonies within the animal. Chinese herbs have been used successfully for thousands of years to support health.
How do Chinese herbs work?
Chinese herbs work using a system of observing signs/symptoms. This is then translated into a pattern, or more commonly, a series of patterns. These patterns correlate to specific conditions. The goal is to bring the state of the body into balance, resulting in relief. Once the body is in a balanced state, health is maintained.
How long does it take for Chinese herbs to work?
Typically you will see the results of the herbs within a few weeks.
What if my horse won't eat the powder?
Though Herbsmith herbal blends are very palatable, occasionally horses are hesitant to eat the herbs because of the unfamiliar taste and smell. If you find this to be the case with your horse, we suggest sprinkling a pinch of the powder in their grain at mealtime to gradually acquaint the horse with the blend. Slowly increase the quantity given each day until they eat a full dose without hesitation. Alternatively, you can combine the powdered formula with wet or dry molasses or ground flax seed.
Herbsmith also offers all of our herbal blends mixed with ground flax seed as Flax Plus for added flavor and palatability.Not for use in pregnant animals. If animal's condition worsens or does not improve, stop product administration and consult your veterinarian. An examination from a veterinarian is recommended prior to using this product.

Herbsmith Athlete
$ 68.99
Visit product page →Herbsmith Athlete ® supports the athletic nature of the horse and manages fatigue in the equine athlete. (Also available in with Flax.)
Every horse in competition needs to be supported to perform to his or her very best, and this blend can do that. When horses are pushed in an active show schedule, fatigue tends to develop with time. Fatigue of this type may manifest as a generalized weakness, especially of the lower back and the limbs. The Herbsmith Athlete ® formula tonifies the yin, supports the balance between yin and yang and maintains the athletic nature of the horse during an active show schedule. This is an excellent herbal combination to manage fatigue and generally support the equine athlete.
Herbsmith Athlete is available in:
30 Day Supply
60 Day Supply
(Supply based on 1000lb horse.)
Chinese Theory:
Yang is generally described as outward, aggressive, active and essentially athletic in nature. Yin is described as inward, passive, fluids and essentially time-at-the-barn-relaxing in nature. This is a perfect blend for tonifying kidney and liver yin. When kidney yin is depleted due to stress, a general weakness of the skeletal system develops, especially in the lower back and legs. When liver yin is depleted the blood is affected and heat tends to be generated. Long-term yang to yin imbalance causes fatigue and increased susceptibility to other issues. In the athletic horse where yang is the primary nature, supporting the yin can provide the balance for optimal show performance and for general good health.

Chinese Theory:
The Chinese theory behind this blend is that it expels wind and dampness, disperses the obstruction, and tonifies the deficiency. Joint discomfort is considered to be an obstruction of the flow of energy, or Qi, which causes the achiness. Herbs in this blend are used to dispel the obstruction, thereby managing the discomfort within the joints. Wind and dampness are considered to be external pathogenic factors, which have invaded the body and affected the joints. Damp and wind are expelled from the body by these herbs.
The obstruction of the flow of Qi to the limbs can cause a deficiency of the kidney and liver. Tonifying these organs helps to support the natural vitality and liveliness of the body.
Directions for Use:
(for 1000 lb. horse)
Two tablespoons twice daily for the first 20 days. Then administer two tablespoons daily thereafter. Note: May want to change to Herbsmith Impulsion during warm summer months.Cautions:

Herbsmith Serenity
$ 31.99
Visit product page →Herbsmith Serenity provides the natural calming solution for the easily frustrated, difficult to control, spooky or anxious horse.
Indications:
This blend is used to calm irritability and apprehension. It is ideal for the horse who is easily frustrated when asked to perform tasks, easily frightened, often shy, difficult to control due to excessive excitement and too preoccupied with the scary things in life to perform to their fullest potential.

Available Product Sizes:
10-Day
30-Day
60-Day
(Based on 1000lb horse.) Also available in new FlaxPlus!
Chinese Theory:
Constrained Liver Qi causes excessive irritability in the horse. The primary blend is used to spread the liver Qi and resolve constraint. The horse is by nature an athlete, or by Chinese philosophy, a liver animal, and as such is prone to liver disharmony.
Horses who are easily frightened by many things in their environment often have heart shen disturbances. Heart shen is considered to control the calmness or grounding of the mind. Herbs have been added to calm the heart shen and therefore decrease the fear of spooky things in the horses' environment. In clinical practice, constrained Liver Qi and heart shen disturbances often occur together. Herbsmith Serenity addresses both issues.
Direction for Use:
(for 1000 lb. horse)
Two tablespoons twice daily for the first 20 days. Then administer two tablespoons daily thereafter.Cautions:
Not for use in pregnant animals. If animal's condition worsens or does not improve, stop product administration and consult your veterinarian. An examination from a veterinarian is recommended prior to using this product. Not for use within 48 hours of surgery/anesthesia.

Redmond Rock Unrefined Loose Salt for Horses

* Preferred by horses
* Keeping horses hydrated and healthy since 1958Rock Crushed loose mineral salt is Redmond Rock in easy-to-feed granular form; makes it easy to vary amount of salt and minerals horse receives based on diet and activity levels. Contains 91% salt, 0.35% calcium, 0.002% phosphorus, 0.06% magnesium, 0.03% potassium, 0.12% sulfur, 10 ppm iodine, 300 ppm iron, 3 ppm copper and 1 ppm zinc.
Directions: Normal recreation - 1 scoop daily; Performance horse - 2 scoops daily. Scoop enclosed. Resealable pouch.
Redmond Rock plays an important role in providing essential trace minerals missing from many forages
Redmond Rock is a natural mineral sea salt harvested from deep within the earth in Southern Utah. Intensive farming practices have depleted most soils of these life-giving minerals, and crops grown on these soils with common N-P-K fertilizer are mineral deficient too.
Horses thrive on Redmond Rock’s minerals. Often, when first given the rock, mineral-deficient horses won’t leave it alone! Redmond Rock’s minerals can help bring a horse back into its natural mineral balance.
By including Redmond Rock as a free-choice mineral supplement in the pasture or stall, horses have access to the finest natural mineral source available, in the form that horses’ natural intelligence teaches them to seek.
How does it work?
Equine health trouble often begins with mineral deficiencies and dehydration. Redmond Rock is a perfect hydration trigger and provides the minerals and elements a horse needs to stay healthy.
Why Redmond Rock?
1. Better Hydration: All horses need a trigger to drink. Redmond Rock encourages them to drink and prevent devastating dehydration issues.
2. Electrolyte Balance: This is especially important for working horses that are sweating in their efforts.
3. Essential Minerals: Without these minerals, horse may be unbalanced and struggle with habits such as eating dirt and cribbing.
4. All-Natural: A hydrated horse is a healthy horse. The important balance of natural salt, minerals and water is vital to a horse’s health.
5. Lasts Longer: Redmond Rock lasts longer in the weather and will not crumble or dissolve in the rain or humidity like blocks tend to do. They may melt a little in extreme humidity.
6. Horses Love the Taste: The more the horse needs it, the more the horse licks it. And the more the horse drinks, the healthier the horse is!
