What is Equi-lift?

First, Equi-lift is an air lifting device for equines unable to raise up, suffering from trauma, pathology causing total or partial disability for displacement and/or raising up. This pneumatic medical device is patented, it was imagined and designed by Pierre Schoenaers and Mathilde Bourély, both veterinary practitioners.

However, after testing and experiencing the Equi-lift with success, we realised that the use in veterinary medicine could go further. In fact, Equi-lift can be really useful for equine surgery, it increases comfort for the lying animal during the surgery but it also allows animal best conditions for post anesthesia wake-up, without stress and injuries. Its use makes sense if your point is working in the best conditions of security and animal welfare.

pain, injuries, water stop, feeding stop;
metabolic deficit;
weakness, bedsores, muscle crush syndrome, ...

The Equi-lift permits to limit these complications, thanks to a quick and simple lifting without pain and stress. Equi-lift increases chances for recovery and animal welfare.
