Every horse that works hard pays for it the next morning. Tight hindquarters after a long trail ride, a stiff shoulder following a jumping school, the dull soreness that settles in after a haul to a show — these are the everyday aches that quietly drain a horse's willingness. Mineral Ice® by Straight Arrow® Inc. is the cooling gel reached for when a horse needs honest, fast relief without anything harsh going onto the skin.
It is a topical analgesic built around a simple, proven idea: a water-based menthol formula that draws heat out of tired tissue and leaves a clean cooling sensation behind. There are no steroids and no benzocaine in the gel — just a light blue, water-based formula you can rub straight into a sore muscle or stiff joint and feel go to work.
Mineral Ice® delivers cool, temporary relief from the minor aches and pains that come with an active equine life. It is used to ease the muscle and joint soreness associated with everyday strains, sprains, bruises and stiffness — the kind of wear that builds up from training, competition and long days under saddle. A horse that moves more freely the morning after a hard effort is a horse that stays sound in its work and willing in its attitude.
Mineral Ice® is made to fit the way real barns work. Massage the gel directly into the sore muscle, tendon or joint area for targeted, hands-on relief — a small amount worked well into the coat goes a long way. It also doubles as a therapeutic cool-down: dilute it as a refreshing body wash or use it as a cooling brace after exercise to help legs and large muscle groups recover. One sixteen-ounce tub covers a lot of hard-working horse.
Straight Arrow® Inc. is the family-run company behind one of the most recognized names in equine grooming. The business began in 1970 on a small New Jersey farm, where a chemist raising Arabian horses set out to build better products for the animals he loved because the quality grooming care he wanted simply did not exist yet. More than fifty years later it remains a family-owned operation, and that same standard — high-quality care for people and the animals they love — carries straight through to Mineral Ice®.
No. Mineral Ice® is an all-natural, water-based menthol formula that contains no steroids and no benzocaine. It works as a cooling topical analgesic rather than a medicated treatment.
The gel is built around menthol in a water-based formula. The menthol creates the cooling sensation that helps draw heat from tired tissue and ease minor soreness and stiffness.
Yes. Beyond targeted massage into a sore area, Mineral Ice® can be used as a therapeutic cool-down body wash or as a cooling brace after exercise, making it versatile for post-work recovery.
Mineral Ice® is sold in a 16-ounce (1 lb) tub. A small amount massaged into the coat goes a long way, so a single tub treats many sessions.
It is intended for the minor aches and pains of an active horse — muscle and joint soreness tied to strains, sprains, bruises and the stiffness that follows hard training, competition or travel.
Massage the gel directly into the affected muscle, tendon or joint area. The light blue water-based gel rubs into the coat cleanly, and it can also be diluted for use as a cooling body wash or brace.
Mineral Ice® is made by Straight Arrow® Inc., the family-run company behind a well-known line of equine grooming and care products that traces its roots to a New Jersey horse farm in 1970.
Mineral Ice® provides cool, temporary relief from minor aches and pains. For ongoing comfort during heavy work periods, it can be reapplied as part of a regular post-exercise recovery routine.
