ArcEquine Programmes Explained

One of our most common questions is "what programme should I use?". There is often a bit of confusion about what programmes to use and how to do so.

Well ladies and gentlemen, read on and your questions will be answered!

The Programmes 

We always recommend that you first run through the following 6-week cycle in order to help the body maximise ATP production. Once the initial 6-week cycle finishes you should use programme 4 (maintenance) for a minimum of two days a month, or you can select the individual programme that best suits your horse’s condition (please see below for a description of what each programme is addressing). If there is an injury, use ArcEquine every day on the most appropriate programme. 

Every few months, we recommend running through the 6-week cycle again in order to maintain optimum results. 

Each programme lasts for 3 hours. You can’t overuse an ArcEquine, but you must rotate the device between healthy legs after each treatment to avoid it always being attached to the same place. 

Selecting a Programme

1. On/Off button – hold for 3 seconds to turn on or to turn off.
2. All four indicator lights will very quickly flash green, then red to indicate that your ArcEquine device is functioning correctly.
3. Indicator lights will then flash green corresponding with current battery charge; 1 light = 25%, 2 = 50%, 3 = 75%, 4 = 100%
4. After 3 seconds all of the lights will go out. Immediately after this, a red light will indicate which programme was last used; 1st light = P1, 2nd = P2, 3rd = P3, 4th = P4.
5. Press the left (On/Off) button quickly to skip through and select the desired programme, from P1 to P4.
6. Press the right play button to activate the selected programme. The unit will beep on activation of the selected programme.
7. Once activated, the right play button will turn either green (connected) or red (not connected).
8. The delivery unit will beep again after 3 hours to indicate that the selected programme has finished.
