« The cow had a difficult calving and showed sciatic syndrome with milk fever. She was placed on the cushion and stayed there for 4 days, until she was able to stand on her own.
This technique is brilliant because for 4 days non-stop the cushion system kept the cow in a comfortable, natural position, without pain. With a clamp, you can only do it in short sessions because it quickly becomes painful for the animal.
Here the Air-cow system kept the cow in an ideal position for her recovery and allowed the rehabilitation, over a few days, of an animal that would certainly have been euthanised without it.
However, if you want the best results, it is a system to use straight away: to get the most out of it, place it under the animal at the very start of the pathology, to avoid all the injuries linked to failed lifting attempts. The option of moving the animal is a real advantage.
Looking after a downer cow at the far end of a paddock is complicated. With the Air-cow cushion you can lift the cow and put her in good conditions. You can also move her without pain. Using this system means optimising the animal's chances of recovery. »
