About
MotionPro Equine Tendon is a specialized equine health technology platform dedicated to the prevention, diagnosis, rehabilitation, and management of tendon and ligament injuries in performance horses. At its core is the TendonPro DSS (Dynamic Support System), a wearable rehabilitation device with over 100,000 hours of use, designed to optimize recovery of flexor tendons and the suspensory ligament while reducing re-injury risk. The platform offers a suite of professional services including shockwave therapy (high-energy sound waves targeting injury sites), advanced equine thermography (non-invasive infrared diagnostic imaging), and equine electrotherapy (electrical stimulation for injury treatment and performance optimization). A UTC Tendon Tissue Assessment provides in-depth structural evaluation of tendon health. Users can access services via monthly professional subscriptions that include expert veterinary oversight, a structured recovery program from stable rest to full work, and ongoing support through the Equine Tendon mobile app (available on iOS and Android). The app connects owners with specialists, tracks rehabilitation progress, and provides access to educational resources, scientific studies, and FAQs. Products available in the shop — including supplements like Connexion and Trombofeet, plus the Equestic SaddleClip — complement the therapy programs. The platform is suitable for racehorses, sport horses, and breeding horses, offering both reactive rehabilitation and proactive preventative packages for performance horse management.
