Regenerative Medicine

Advanced regenerative medicine for sport horses in Europe, with orthopedic expertise provided by a PhD-qualified equine veterinarian based in Belgium.

A New Era in Equine Orthopedics

Regenerative medicine in horses represents a true revolution in modern equine orthopedic practice. This advanced field allows injured tissues—such as joints, tendons, and ligaments—to recover not only structurally, but also functionally, restoring optimal biomechanics and athletic performance.

Unlike conventional treatments, which often result in scar tissue with limited mechanical capacity, regenerative therapies aim to recreate tissue that closely resembles the original structure and function, significantly improving long-term outcomes in sport horses.

As a PhD-qualified equine orthopedic veterinarian, specialized in sport horses and based in Belgium, I apply regenerative medicine using a strictly scientific, performance-oriented approach, tailored to the demands of high-level competition in Europe and internationally.

Healing vs. Regeneration: Why It Matters in Sport Horses

The equine body can repair damaged tissues in two different ways:

  • Healing, which produces mechanically inferior scar tissue
  • Regeneration, which restores tissue that is biologically and functionally similar to the original

In sport horses, where performance, durability, and athletic longevity are critical, regeneration represents the gold standard. This is particularly relevant in cases of lameness, tendon injuries, ligament damage, and early joint degeneration.

These disciplines demand maximum biomechanical efficiency, making regenerative medicine a key tool in modern sport horse management.
