Corsican Immortelle & Hoof Health

Hoof health: a pillar of horse well-being

Hoof health is a fundamental pillar of a horse's well-being and locomotion. Healthy hooves ensure stable support, good blood circulation, and optimal performance. Conversely, a weakened hoof can quickly lead to pain, sensitivity, lameness, and chronic conditions.

At the house of Hoof Oliu Care, We have chosen an exceptional plant-based active ingredient, recognized for its remarkable therapeutic properties: the Corsican everlasting flower, used both as an essential oil and as a hydrosol, and present at the heart of all our formulations.

Corsican immortelle: an exceptional medicinal plant

Helichrysum italicum, The Corsican everlasting flower, better known as immortelle de Corse, grows in the Corsican maquis, on poor and exposed soils. This plant develops an exceptional concentration of active molecules, which explains its reputation in herbal medicine and aromatherapy.

It is known for its properties:

• Powerful anti-inflammatories
• Healing
• Antibacterial and antifungal
• Tissue regenerators
• Microcirculation stimulants

Traditionally, immortelle is used to repair skin, calm inflammation, promote cell regeneration and support blood circulation.
