Zamar units operate in a similar way to a refrigeration unit but have the capacity
to heat as well as cool the area being treated. There is no ice or water anywhere in this treatment system. Sports hot/cold therapy and Equine ice therapy units with their advanced programmable heating and cooling temperature treatment
comes from an air condensed refrigeration unit with a specially adapted circulation system. A liquid called Glycol is pumped down PVC hoses into treatment pads that are held inside Velcro fastening Wraps that are applied to the area to be treated. The Equine machines have safety connectors fitted and if the horse moves away the Wraps are instantly disconnected.
There has been much research in recent times about sports injury therapy, sports hot / cold therapy & equine ice therapy and the results that are achieved by it.
