Herbs for joints and mobility

Which formula do you choose?
Each formula has its own focus:
- Rear-Motion: our most extensive formula, sixteen herbs for joints, back, neck and hindquarters.
- NewJoint-Extra: eleven herbs aimed at connective tissue and building cartilage, for young animals that are still growing and older animals getting stiffer.
- Spyrox: for muscles and tendons that stay stiff after training or a long day.
- Anolgon: a gentle formula for when the body could use some extra rest after exertion or strain.
- Legg-Motion: for hooves and claws, for sheep and goats only.
Combining formulas
Movement is often about more than one thing. NewJoint-Extra combines well with Rear-Motion and Anolgon. Each product page shows which formulas a product goes well with. Give no more than three formulas at the same time.
Keep your animal moving too: building up gently, short walks and a healthy weight make a real difference.
What to expect
Allow two to four weeks before you see a difference. If your animal suddenly goes lame, or is clearly in a lot of discomfort, have it seen by a professional first. Our herbs are complementary feed and no substitute for an expert eye.

Staying supple as they age
The first sign is rarely lameness. It’s the dog that no longer jumps onto the sofa, or the cat that struggles to get up.

What are Chinese herbs?
Not a single herb for a single thing, but a formula in which herbs reinforce and temper one another. This is how the Chinese herbal tradition works.
