Abstract: A therapeutic horseshoe may be a unitary body having opposed upper and lower surfaces. The lower surface may be curved, such that the horseshoe is thicker in the middle and heel portions thereof and thinner at the inner and outer sides and, in some embodiments, the toe portions thereof, which allows a horse with navicular syndrome to easily roll the hoof laterally and medially, and, in some embodiments, breakover the hoof sooner in the gait, to obtain comfort and pain relief, promoting increased blood flow and healing. At least one tab may be removably attached at various locations to the lower surface for customizing points of pressure to the hoof as well as customizing restriction of lateral and/or medial rolling of the hoof. A method of using a therapeutic horseshoe is also disclosed.
