The power of clay

Many insufficiently known virtues, a widespread sphere of activity.

Produit naturel de soin des membres du cheval contre les engorgements et les inflammations

Our clay is particularly efficient due to a high ionic exchange power. This natural "biochemical" adsorption neutralizes most of the toxins accumulating in the body of the horse, and at the same time replacing it wth its micronutrients during the process.

Clay is a mineral very hydrophilic:

  • on the surface, it absorbs liquids, gazs, fatty substances,
  • in depth, it draws out the toxic particles to exchange it against its minerals.
It prevents the development of pathogens and contributes to cell regeneration.

“Its intrinsic medicinal properties superior to terrestrial industrial clay powders (from dry quarries) make it a pure bio-mineral product of great quality.”

Depending on the desired effect:

- if you wish to cool an area of the member after an effort or treat an inflammation of tendons, warm congestion... Do not cover with a airtight textile (eventually a light breathing cloth, gauze/compress, moist newspaper sheet) so that the heat can be transfered from the clay to the air.

Let it operate the time for the clay to be dry (clay is at its highest activity when moist), from half an hour for surface contusions to 2 hours to treat deep traumatism.
Then rinse with clear water.

Testimonies

“I am a owner of trotters actually in competition and i use Perle de mer clay after each race and workout.
I apply it on the tendons, knees, legs and even on the back of my horses. I am very satisfied with this product, what's more it dissolves very quickly when i give a shower and the most important it is non doping.

“I can say that an application of PDM marine clay on the affected parts of one of my mares (that suffers each summer from dermatitis) eases the itching, protects and helps the skin to recover. I noticed a real relief.

“...after 5 days of use of Perle de mer, the inside inflammation of the front left leg of my horse has completely disappeared, while i tryed different products before ; this area of my horse is particularly sensitive.
...I am very satisfied with this quality of clay, after 4 days of daily use twice daily ... the result is there and I can only see the tendons of my horses have become dry and no heat is persistent.

“ The thoroughbred horses we have are particularly sensitive.
We use "Perle de mer" amongst other uses on "exhausted" legs, it's an excellent decongestant with anti-inflammatory properties.
For example, our dominant gelding, an old racing thoroughbred horse, suffering from arthritis, often gets himself into a state during heat period. When he is pushing the boundaries, your product helps to relieve his hocks. I will spare you other examples...

Advices
  • Do not use metal tools to work or apply the clay, it would lower its magnetic effects.
  • Avoid applying clay near an area where you have already applied another ointment (gel, balm, cream) to avoid excessive heat in that area.
  • If possible, avoid letting the clay dry too long on the animal. This would rather cause a discomfort and the clay is effective only insofar as it is still wet.
  • Remember to well close the bucket of PERLE DE MER® after having taken the quantity of clay needed to apply the poultice, then you could keep your bucket for several months.
  • Reminder : Clay is disposable, you cannot use several times after it has been applied.
  • Important : Do not ingest or use on open wounds or cracks.
