Thermal Mud is MAGIC. On my 2nd day of being a Vermate & TM-agent – I got tested – a good test! Our Yard Owners mare, BELLA, got a gash on her bum (14 July). It looked like she got caught on something – flesh missing, whole area swollen and very warm to the touch. (She was not examined by a Vet/ Received no Stitches)
I decided – here’s my chance to prove Therma Mud’s Magic!! I’ve been using Vermate & Thermal Mud for about 2 years now, but this was My First Open Wound
I was a bit nervous (truth be told) but trusted the product. The owner didn’t know Vermate & Thermal Mud and wanted to use products she knows, but I convinced her to give me (and TM) a chance
What an outcome! Full of Smiles and a new Client (and a new horsie-friend for me).
Bella was given a double-dosage of Vermate in her food for about two weeks. (First-time for that also for the Owner and her Horsie)
Take a look at the story in pictures below.
I washed the wound twice daily with salt water, sometimes Bio Scrub.
19 July – dead skin around the wound started to fall off
23 July – the flesh / the hole started closing up – or it looked like it “surfaced”.
31 August – the wound is completely closed-up, all hair grown back.
It was like the healing was done “all in one”
The wound closed up, the hair-loss below the wound (due to the “puss” that came out) was cleared.
Taking time is never a loss. Thanx Vermate & Thermal Mud #ProudAgent
Whats the steam all about
Thermal Retention: Thermal Mud is naturally mineral-rich and holds warmth. When applied to the body (especially on a wound, swelling, or sore muscle), it maintains and slowly releases that heat.
Moisture Release: As the mud warms up against the horse’s skin and begins to dry, moisture in the mud evaporates. That’s what creates the visible “steam.”
Circulation Boost: The combination of warmth and minerals stimulates blood flow to the area, helping carry oxygen and nutrients to damaged tissue while flushing out toxins and waste products.
Why It Helps Healing
Breaks Down Dead Tissue: The warmth accelerates the process of sloughing off necrotic (dead) tissue, clearing the way for healthy granulation tissue to form.
Reduces Swelling & Pain: Heat encourages circulation and lymph drainage, which helps decrease inflammation and eases discomfort.
Speeds Up Repair: With improved blood flow, the wound or sore area gets more of what it needs for faster, stronger healing.
In Practice
When an agent or owner notices the steam rising, it is often the first visible sign that the mud is working. Horses will sometimes visibly relax as the circulation effect takes hold, showing typical signs of release such as licking, chewing, or lowering their head.
How Thermal Mud and Vermate Work Together
Combining Thermal Mud with Vermate offers a holistic approach to managing open wounds.
Topical Support with Thermal Mud
Thermal Mud enhances circulation, reduces inflammation, and provides antimicrobial benefits to create an environment conducive to healing. Applied directly, it soothes irritated skin and supports tissue repair.
Internal Support with Vermate
Vermate is administered orally and supports systemic detoxification and immune function, helping the body better manage viral infections and promote overall health.
Synergistic Effects
The combination addresses both local skin health and systemic wellbeing, improving the chances of successful sarcoid management.
Additional Care Tips
Combine with Vermate to support immune detoxification and tissue repair internally.
Always consult a veterinarian for diagnosis, especially before treating rapidly changing or ulcerated lesions.
Patience and consistency are key, visible progress may take several weeks depending on the individual case.
