Showcase Day

Please join us at Moorcroft Equine Rehabilitation Centre on Saturday 20 May 2023 at 10:30am at the Centre. 

If you want to learn about many available rehabilitation techniques that you all can employ for various ailments and lameness issues, please join us to see the horses working at various stages of healing and rehabilitation. Plenty of time for questions too.

EmCyte Regenerative Technologies and SCS-C.I.C will present on this day and will share with you much information re their PRP (Platelet Rich Plasma) treatments which are now available at Moorcroft.

What is platelet-rich plasma? Platelet-rich plasma consists of two elements: plasma, or the liquid portion of blood, and concentrated platelets, a type of blood cell that plays an important role in healing throughout the body. Platelets are well-known for their clotting abilities, but they also contain growth factors and cell signallers that can trigger cell reproduction and stimulate tissue regeneration and healing in the treated area. Platelet-rich plasma is simply blood that contains concentrated platelets. Emcyte have developed a system whereby they take the horse’s own blood, concentrate the plasma and the platelets and the Vet re-injects the concentrated platelets into the area that needs healing. We are very pleased with the results so far with the horses here that have had the benefit of EmCyte’s expertise and are committed to taking very careful data so many horses in the future can benefit and no guess work is involved. More info and case studies later in the year. You can read more about the science of PRP and the EmCyte technologies at www.scs-cic.org.

Just £30 per person. All proceeds go to help the horses at the charity and these much needed funds are welcome, so thank you for your support.
