Laurie Pitts – Applying a Sweat Wrap
5m 38s
A sweat wrap includes medicine applied directly onto a horse’s leg, which is covered with a plastic wrap and then a standing wrap. Demonstrating how to apply one, Laurie Pitts explains that the plastic wrap generates heat, helping to tighten the leg, and what types of injuries it treats. SAFETY NOTE: As Laurie explains, crouching when working around a horse’s legs is the safest posture so that if the horse startled, you would be able to move away quickly.
