Kit of 2 alu wedges Dondolino LORENZO D'ARPE

Developed in collaboration with Dr. Lorenzo D’Arpe. Sole with kinetherapeutic action at rest (horse in box). Sole with 5° slope with a dome that can be adjusted longitudinally to create a slight continuous instability. The sole is screwed temporarily onto the shoe, using 2 or 3 screws located in the milled areas. The outer shape of the sole is adjusted to the shape of the shoe by grinding.

PRINCIPLE AND INTERACTION WITH THE GROUND : The centre of static pressure has to be found which is easy to do using the longitudinal adjustment of the dome to move it backwards and forwards until the balance point is found with the foot placed on the ground: the foot should neither tilt forwards nor backwards when balanced. Once correctly adjusted, the dome is fixed in position using 2 locking screws.

BIOMECHANICAL AND KINETHERAPEUTIC EFFECTS : The micro-movements produced by the system’s inherent instability pump blood due to contractions by the lower limb flexor and extensor muscles.

INDICATIONS : Horses with fine soles with laminitis risk. Solar chorionitis (fine soles, navicular syndrome) stasis oedema, negative palmar and plantar angle (atrophy of the digital pad, contracted feet...). Do not allow the horse to leave its stalls with the Dondolino fitted. It is advisable to monitor muscle fatigue during the first 2 - 3 days. Start by using them for 4 hours during the day to get the horse used to them.
