- Kelato Swell Down Poultice
- A stable first aid essential! SwellDOWN is a therapeuticclay poultice to quickly take heat out of inflammation, reducing swelling and overall leg soreness. Can be used on broken skin & easy to wash off.
- What is SwellDOWN?
- SwellDOWN’sspecial mixture of montmorillonite clay and unique therapeutic ingredients has a cooling effect on injuries often caused by hard knocks or jarring. The clay, used as a poultice, draws out heat and reduces swelling commonly generated at damaged sites to aid a more rapid recovery. It is fast, effective and an excellent tightener around knees, ankles and tendons.
- SwellDOWNcontains NO substances in concentrations that breach the rules of racing.
- How does it work?
- The combination of wet clay, essential oils and minerals inSwellDOWNhas a cooling effect on the skin. Heat produced by exercise or injury is drawn out at a rapid rate, limiting hypoxic (lack of oxygen) damage and reducing the risk of oedema (fluid retention) and muscle damage, thereby aiding recovery.
- Magnesium Sulphate:Delivers the cooling drawing action to lessen pain.
- Potassium Aluminium Sulphate:Works to ‘tighten’ the leg, keeping swelling and inflammation at a minimum.
- Calcium Carbonate:Adjusts the poultice to the correct pH level.
- Oil of Peppermint and Eucalyptus:
- Reduces muscle pain and inflammation.
- Creates a cooling sensation; keeps horse comfortable during treatment.
- Antiseptic properties help to disinfect any minor cuts/abrasions present under poultice.
- Glycerine:A humectant (retains moisture) which softens & moisturises the skin. Reduces itchiness.
- Wet montmorillonite clay:Binds the actives together and keeps them wet, so effective for longer.
