The Team

Our Mission:

Deliver a high quality equine microcurrent therapy product, supported by proven science and technology, that promotes optimal equine health and performance.

Two important guiding principles for our company are scientific facts and professional integrity.

We sincerely believe in the months and years to come, Microlief™ will prove to be a tremendous benefit to all disciplines of equine athletes.  Microlief™  will help reduce pain and speed the recovery time when there is a soft tissue injury, but we feel that most importantly,  Microlief™ will help PREVENT equine sports injuries from occurring.

This revolutionary and unique product could only have come about through an unusual, but effective, blend of multitalented professionals.
