"We love our RevitaVet products here at Castle Hill, and all our horses (in and out of competition) use this great product.  It allows us to administer a number of different therapy treatments, as we know we can use it on many different problem areas. We like to use the PollCap and the HoofPads on them as we believe that they benefit greatly from these product.  We also feel that it gives them the best and most comfortable start to any competition. The system helps the horses relax while grooming, tacking up and preparing them for the show ring.  We highly recommend this product to anyone who has to treat a problem area on their horse, as the product helps the horse feel more relaxed and comfortable in preparation for any discipline of work."
