Rescued this sweet 2 year old from the South Los Angeles city shelter who was on Orange status- pending euthanasia if his medical condition did not improve. Took him home to help him heal with the hopes of finding him a new family to love.

Great explanation from a vet. As osteopath’s we’re not “anti-injections”- I prefer that a horse receives regenerative products over the use of steroids. You can add even more products to this list that she didn’t mention- including exosomes and peptide therapies.

There are three main classes of biologic therapies currently used in equine medicine:

1. Blood-Based Products
These products utilize a horse’s own blood, which is processed in various ways and then administered back to the same horse. They are commonly used to treat joint and soft tissue conditions. Examples include ProStride/PRP, Alpha-2-Macroglobulin (A*M), and IRAP.

2. Amnion-Based Products
Amnion-based products are derived from equine amnion, a portion of the placenta, and are used in recipient horses other than the donor. These products provide anti-inflammatory and regenerative benefits. Examples include RenoVo and AniCell.

3. Stem Cells
Stem cell therapies may be bone marrow–derived or adipose (fat)–derived. We will not focus heavily on these this month, as their use has become less favorable. Newer biologic products are easier to administer, equally or more effective, less expensive, and overall safer.

Most practitioners agree that bone marrow–derived stem cells are more beneficial than fat-derived products. However, both methods require harvesting tissue (bone marrow or fat), followed by laboratory processing to grow and cultivate stem cells for later injection. This process carries inherent risks—particularly with bone marrow taps—and typically requires several weeks to produce a usable product. For many practitioners, these drawbacks often outweigh the potential benefits.

Check back in for our next post, we will go into greater detail on a product we use a lot at Denali Equine - ProStride.

Balance is key. Not just for the hoof- but whole body.

As I close out the year and reflect, I am so grateful for so many people in my life- from incredible mentors on the human and equine sides- to my clients who have stuck with me and continue to keep the work exciting. Seeing the improvements in the lives of others and their animals is what this is all about. A good friend suggested to collect testimonials- that they will keep me going even when the deepest of self-doubt kicks in- and I think she's right! Today I received another wonderful one that I felt was worth sharing. Wishing you all and very Peaceful, Joyful Holiday season. You have my gratitude for your trust, loyalty and referrals! Cheers to 2026!

"I first met Jessica because my vet recommended PEMF for a bite injury on my endurance mare, and Jessica was a local practitioner with a PEMF machine. This bite injury was causing serious issues because 1. the bite wound is exactly where the saddle edge sits (and moves), and 2. my mare is the most s...
