THE ICEMAN® HISTORY

Before equine cooling gels were introduced, ice or cold water were applied to the horse’s body and legs as a method of treating inflammation of muscles, joints, and tendons.

In 1996 Mr. William Quinn, a chemist, and proud racehorse owner developed ICEMAN® as a more effective treatment for his own racehorses.

With his knowledge of the healing properties of herbs, he formulated ICEMAN®, a unique combination of herbs, that included Arnica, Echinacea and natural Menthol. ICEMAN® proved to cool down and relieve the pain for his horses’ muscles, joints, and tendons more effective than alternative icing methods.

THE ICEMAN® EFFECT

Since then, ICEMAN® has continuously proven to:

• Relieve from the pain associated with arthritis, painful lesions of the muscles, tendons, and joints,

​

• Alleviation of post-exercise lameness

​

• Used as ‘cold therapy’ for the treatment of new and old injuries and even to prevent future injuries

The unique herbal formula, H8000, still remains a ‘family’ secret. The secret 'recipe' significantly enhances the effect of menthol on painful muscles, joints, and tendons, with results that have been trusted by riders and trainers for more than a decade.

Therefore ICEMAN is claimed by many to be their preferred cooling gel due to its unique healing properties.
