Testimonials

Don Combs, Paris KY
Kentucky Derby Winner Trainer:

"In 39 years of training thoroughbreds, PainTrace™ is the only thing I have seen that can accurately detect both pain and pain relief in a horse. I do not like to race any horse in pain and it is often hard to tell with minor injuries. PainTrace™ removes the guesswork and even lets you follow the animal's recovery with a simple, inexpensive procedure that anyone can administer in a few minutes."

Donald and Deborah Sutherland, Old Westbury, NY:
Owner/Operators of Fox Lair Rehabilitative Stable

"Over a two year period, we have seen PainTrace™ accurately measure pain and pain relief from a wide variety of known causes in dozens of horses. It has been particularly helpful in evaluating the degree of recovery from surgery or injury before returning the horse to active training. Not the least of its advantages is its ease of operation and interpretation, by even minimally-trained staff. It can also sometimes save an owner the extra time and cost of expensive scans."
