Liniments have been commonplace in the competitive equine world for many years and of those, the Sore No-More brand is the most trusted among athletes. At the request of competitors, a competition friendly line of Sore No-More was created and, more recently, a clinical strength version of that line, Performance Ultra.
Comfort for horses with back pain
Truman State University research supports use of Sore No-More Performance Ultra in horses with back pain after a randomized, placebo trial to evaluate 18 horses previously diagnosed with back pain showed up to a 90% decrease in pain response within the first 30 days of treatment.
Where other liniments include ingredients like menthol, capsaicin, peppermint, spearmint oils and alcohol making them likely to burn or blister sensitive horses and unsafe for use under wraps and pads, Sore No-More Performance Ultra retains all the qualities youâve come to trust from Sore No-More over the years and continues to be safe for use on even the most sensitive horses.
Its 100% herbal ingredients ensure its safety when using under wraps and saddle pads and the new clinical strength formula provides the fastest, most effective relief available.
To test this claim, researchers at Truman State University developed a randomized, placebo trial to evaluate 18 horses previously diagnosed with back pain. Treatment horses received 0.2ml of Sore No-More Performance Ultra Gelotion per square centimeter applied daily after exercise while the placebo group received the same treatment and formula, less the active ingredients.
Standardized, serial pressure algometry scores were taken throughout the 44 day trial period on all horses and, upon conclusion, horses in the treatment group showed up to a 90% decrease in pain response within the first 30 days of treatment.
The results of this study prove Sore No-More Performance Ultraâs efficacy in mitigating the pain responses associated with chronic back pain and this formulation is now available to consumers and dealers through Arenus.
Available in a traditional liniment, thicker gelotion or the famous Sore No-More poultice base, Performance Ultra is your answer for a variety of performance limiting issues and maintenance. Contact us today to order or receive information on becoming an official Sore No-More dealer!
