high-tech moldable silicone for maximum shock absorption and pressure relief When the internal structures of the hoof are inflamed or damaged, every step counts. The "PM Hufpolster Soft" (PM Soft Hoof Pad) reliably absorbs harsh impacts and ensures an even distribution of weight across the entire surface of the sole and frog. Thanks to its extremely low material density, it does not add unnecessary weight to the horse's hoof. As an independent specialist practice with our own workshop—operating since 2004—we frequently use this silicone padding to address orthopedic issues, gently supporting the natural hoof mechanism and providing immediate pain relief. Medical applications in hoof therapy This high-quality padding material is a proven solution for various conditions and is successfully used by hoof care professionals for: • Laminitis: Essential for supporting the frog and preventing further rotation or sinking of the coffin bone (distal phalanx). • Navicular syndrome (podotrochleosis) & coffin joint inflammation: Reduces concussive forces in the rear section of the hoof. • Arthritis of the distal joints: Noticeably dampens impact stress on the joints. • Sole sensitivity: Protects thin or tender soles from stones and hard ground. • Coffin bone fractures: Stabilizes and secures the hoof capsule during the healing process. Easy application and perfect for use with glue-on shoes The practical application is straightforward: the material is mixed by kneading equal parts (50% component A and 50% component B) until a homogeneous, pink-colored mass is formed. It cures quickly—within just 2–3 minutes—making it ideal for restless horses or fidgety patients. The PM Soft hoof pad fits perfectly into the cavity between the frog support and the balance bar. It integrates seamlessly with our therapeutic systems—such as the handcrafted, open-toe "REHE HippoBlue medical" glue-on shoe or the NBS series. It precisely fills every tiny void, providing the coffin bone with the exact support it requires in critical situations.
