Unlocking DMSO: Benefits for Horse Recovery and Care

Let’s talk DMSO 👇

If you’ve seen it listed in our products and wondered what it does—here’s a simple, non-technical breakdown:

🧬 What is DMSO?
DMSO stands for dimethyl sulfoxide. It’s an organic compound originally used as an industrial solvent, but later discovered to have unique properties that made it popular in veterinary settings—especially with performance horses.

🌊 Why do some horse owners use it?
DMSO is known for its deep tissue-penetrating ability. That means when combined with other ingredients—like essential oils or herbal infusions—it may help those ingredients absorb faster and deeper into the skin.

It’s often used:

• As a carrier for other ingredients

• To support comfort and recovery in horses

• In topical applications for joints, legs, and back

📛 Is it safe?
When used responsibly and externally, many horse owners and trainers include DMSO in their routines. That said, it’s a potent compound—and should only be used on healthy, clean skin.
As with any product, consult with your veterinarian if you have questions about what’s right for your horse.

🧪 Why we include it in some Rodeo Road Essentials products:
Because we believe in using tools that support effective recovery—and DMSO is one of them. Combined with natural ingredients like copaiba, turmeric, and peppermint, it helps our blends do more, faster.
