Dried herbs can be used as equine joint supplements and to help maintain a healthy musculo-skeletal system, which is critical in the case of older horses. Many horses become stiff because of old age, injuries or poor nutrition. By supplementing your horse's diet with some natural essential herbs, you can help maintain healthy flexible joints and a much more free moving horse. Laminitis and navicular also create similar problems for horses and can be treated with the same herbs in a maintenance fashion. Click here for the concentrated liquid version 'Free Mover Plus'
Herbs will:
- help maintain a healthy musculo-skeletal system
- improve flexibility and movement in the joints
- neutralise the acidity in the horses system
- increase circulation
A handful of herbs can make a world of difference

"My horse (a 24 year old mare) has always suffered from stiff joints . I have been feeding her Brookby Herbs' Free Mover and she's now running around like a two year old. She's a quite a different horse altogether - even the Vet can't believe the difference. I swear by it."
B. Hancock, Stratford, New Zealand
"My horse suffers from stiff joints and I noticed a difference after using Free Mover (Devil's Claw) for three weeks. It transformed him into a new animal; happy and moving about normally. I then tried taking him off the herbs for a week and he has reverted back to his tired old self. I really believe the herbs have given him a new lease of life."
J. Hamilton, Alfriston, New Zealand
"I have a 22 year old Cleveland Bay/TB gelding called Saltan. He had an uneven gait, especially at trot, stiffness, calcification of joints and has been diagnosed as suffering from osteo-arthritis (especially around the fetlock joints). The vet said it was the worst case of arthritis he had ever seen. We purchased Free Mover from you in May for our "stiff old man" who by the way is doing great. Greg took him for the first ride since he'd been put on the mixture and found no uneven gait at a trot and a real willingness to go. I have noticed that he is now coming straight down the hill when we call him instead of zigzaging like he use to. He now has a real brightness in his eyes - and he doesn't look like an old shaggy pony (he is 16.2hh) anymore as his coat is even softer and shiner. Thank you for your wonderful product."

"I have been using Freemover for around a month and there has been such a great improvement on my old boy!!! I have now got someone else using it too!!!"

"I can't recommend devils claw Free Mover enough. I have been using it on my 13hh aged (we think she's around 30yo) mare who foundered at least twice before we bought her and had chronic seedy toe. Three years later, with the help of Brookby Herbs' products, she is galloping around the paddock like a pony half her age. The past two seasons my daughter has competed very successfully in show hunter jumping classes, finishing 8th last year on the New Zealand pony high points, evented, competed in pony club classes at the shows where they have won champion ribbons for paced and mannered, and the pair managed 1.25m in a two bar challenge. The times I have run out of Free Mover and been slack in putting in an order, the difference in the pony's action is quite noticeable. Older ponies are the best at teaching young children and deserve the best care. Free Mover is a must in my book."

"I just want to let you know that I think your product Free Mover is brilliant. I have had 2 horses on it and I honestly can`t say enough about it. I have recommended it to a lot of my friends and they know how good they are as my horse is the proof. I have a 19 year old mare that is a lot happier now with being on the herbs and I had a 21 year old that improved so much from your product. Thankyou for making the horses and dogs alot more comfortable in their older years,"
Joan Johnson New Zealand.
"I have used Free Mover for an aged horse with great success (and recommended it to friends) "
Thanks, Deborah Bigggs, NZ
"Hi Jackie,
Just wanted to let you know that me and my old horse Charlie are really enjoying your Free Mover! Charlie is a Gisborne stock horse that had had a hard life as a trekking horse before I got him. He is the first horse I have ever owned and he is now about 26 years with arthritis in his back and legs. The vet advised me that he still needs regular gentle exercise, and he loves to go out. I was worried however about causing him pain and he had started to stumble frequently. I had tried some other non herbal products that were extremely expensive. When I found Free Mover I was delighted. It means that we can still go out on nice quiet rides together, he can still canter along the grassy stop banks and he does not seem sore the next day. He is less stiff in his legs and he doesn’t stumble as much. Free Mover is also more affordable than other alternatives and it is a good feeling to know that it is all herbal. So thanks for a great product that means Charlie and I can still enjoy some nice rides together.
Cheers, Helen."
