HOLSTIC CARE CONCEPT

Summer eczema is more than just a skin reaction - it is a complex challenge that requires a holistic approach. With our Hestakofi Holistic Care Concept, we offer a comprehensive system that effectively protects, cares for and sustainably supports horses. Our concept is based on three pillars: defense, care and prevention . It is the 1x1 of summer eczema care for well-thought-out care.

DEFENSE - PROTECTION FROM THE TRIGGERS

Black flies (Culicoides) are the main cause of summer eczema. Effective protection reduces itching and prevents skin irritation.

Eczema blanket : A high-quality eczema blanket is the first line of defense. It protects against insect bites and prevents mechanical skin irritation caused by scratching and chafing.

Repellent : Like mosquito repellent spray , it reliably protects against blood-sucking insects such as black flies, mosquitoes, ticks and flies. The skin-friendly formula contains no alcohol, smells pleasant and nourishes stressed horse skin with aloe vera and broccoli seed oil. Ideal for supporting the care of summer eczema.

Husbandry and stable hygiene : Standing water, damp pastures and dirty stable areas attract insects. The problem can be reduced through targeted management.

CARE - FOR STRESSED SKIN

Proper care is essential to relieve itching, regenerate damaged skin and keep the coat healthy.

Anti-itch care : Special lotions with soothing ingredients such as CBD oil and herbal extracts help relieve acute itching and prevent inflammation.

Moisturizing care : Dry, flaky skin is intensively cared for with moisturizing components such as the Hestakofi Hydration Complex and remains elastic.

Gentle cleansing : Mildly formulated shampoos and sprays remove dandruff, soothe irritated skin and promote the natural protective barrier.

STRENGTHENING PREVENTION FROM WITHIN

Long-term support begins with the horse's inner balance. Optimized feeding and a stable immune system can have a positive effect on sweet itch.

  • Pasture management : Strategic grazing reduces contact with insects. Short grazing times in the morning or evening hours and pastures with few insects are crucial.
  • Mineral feed : A targeted supply of nutrients supports the skin and immune system.
  • Sugar reduction : A stable blood sugar level is essential, as increased sugar consumption can promote inflammatory processes.
  • Stress management : Stress exacerbates immunological reactions. A quiet environment and sufficient activity are therefore important.
  • Strengthen the immune system : Natural feed additives with immune-supporting plant extracts promote the body's own defenses.
  • Fatty acids : Omega-3 and omega-6 fatty acids from high-quality oils such as linseed or hemp oil support skin health and reduce inflammatory reactions.
