ALVAMIRACLE
Horse Lotion
The
Veteran Horse Society often does trials for new products, but never
before have we found a product to have such a remarkable affect to
a horses skin. In May 2005, we collected a very poorly TB X
called Anthony. His Sarcoids and skin condition are some of the worst
we have ever seen and it really was a difficult decision on whether we
brought him back to the centre or had him put to sleep. However, his
eye was bright despite terrible sores and injuries to his body and being
½ his body weight I knew it was going to take some work to bring him
back to his former glory.
Whilst
traveling him back to the rehabilitation centre, I really didn’t know
what product we could use on him safely. I called Phil Bowen, the
Managing Director of ALVAHORSE, as we had previously used one of his
products called ALVAMIRACLE Horse Cream on
a horse that had an infected heel. Nothing else had worked on bringing
the swelling and infection until we applied this miraculous cream. I
thought perhaps we could use this on Anthony’s face and his Sarcoids? I
knew it would be difficult and painful applying a cream to Anthony's
sores, so I asked Phil if it was possible for him to make his
ALVAMIRACLE Horse Cream into a lotion and
provide it in a spray bottle.
Amazingly Phil provided us with
ALVAMIRACLE Horse Lotion within 12 hours.
I would
like to say "We had amazing results in a very short period. I would not
be without it on any of the yards and Anthony is still treated twice
daily. Although the Sarcoids are slowly decreasing, it has made a huge
difference to his quality of life and as it's an insect repellent it has
helped him from the fly irritations that are attracted to Sarcoids.
The VHS
would certainly recommend ALVAMIRACLE Horse
Cream and ALVAMIRACLE Horse Lotion
to Equestrians World Wide !
I'm
delighted to say " I feel both proud and honored to have been involved
in the creation of ALVAMIRACLE
Horse Lotion"

Dear Phil
I have a Welsh mare who has been tormented with sweet itch for many years in spite of being kept in, covered with fly sheets, sprayed and rubbed with anything I could find that might help.
Every summer she suffered badly and rubbed out her mane, tail and much of her body hair. She was covered in scabs until late in the fall. Last summer, just shortly after her first encounter with the no-see-ums that cause it, she broke out with sweet itch and was a mess. Her face, down both sides of the mane, around the dock and under her belly were encrusted.
I rubbed Alva Sweet on all the effected spots each day (instructions say twice a day but I did it only once) and by day three there was noticeable healing. I had stopped all other treatment, she was in and out of the barn at will and wore no fly sheet. By day ten all you could see were dark spots where the scabs had been. She is a grey, almost white, so every mark shows up. After about three weeks I discontinued the treatment - also contrary to the instructions. She began to re grow her mane and tail and had no further problems for the rest of the summer and fall.
This may be an extreme case but it certainly convinced me of the value of Alva Products.

Dear Phil,
I suffer from Rosatia which flares up on my face. It is very sore, and to date I have tried many creams which only tend to aggravate the inflammation. My Doctor tells me that this condition is on going and whilst it comes and goes, will never disappear. The only thing that alleviates and to some extent clears the soreness is "oxytetracycline prescribed by my doctor. With in two to three days of taking the tablets there is a noticeable difference.
This is fine, but the taking of these tablets drains me of energy and I feel physically exhausted.
Having bought a pot of Alvamiracle cream at last years Horse of the Year show in Birmingham and I have used it with remarkable effect in fact this "miracle cream" acts as quickly and as effectively as the tablet. The bonuses of course are, it is very soothing and moisturising to my face, and I do not feel totally exhausted every day.
At 54 years of age I have had this condition since my teens. I cannot explain the joy it has given me. The soreness appears on my face and is very visible. This miracle cream has made it possible for me to regain my self-confidence. Thank you.
To anyone out there who has a skin condition, I would urge you to just give it a try, one pot lasts ages.

Phil,
When the Thomas Show Team was first introduced to the various products from your Alvahorse range, we were very sceptical of the quality of them, as we are continuously asked to test various products.
However, after extensive trials on different products from your company, we have to admit that they are of an exceptionally high quality.
Our Team use "ALVASPARKLE" daily on our show animals as we find it conditions the coats and keeps them clean and repels staining. Naturally the shine comes from within but everything helps and "ALVASPARKLE" is an exceptionally high quality product.
The Thomas Show Team has found that the "ALVASWEET" (sweet itch formula) is a particularly good product and out performs most veterinary products on the market.
We are simply amazed at the high quality content of these products and hope the company continues introducing more of these high quality products onto the equine market. We FULLY ENDORSE the products of "ALVAHORSE"
Many thanks. Ron Thomas - Proprietor Thomas Show Team.

Hi Phil
Ill be only too glad to send you some photos of one of my New Forest Ponies,
Wayland Lion Heart. Hes a New Forest 14.2hds and three years old. He has
won all over the country over the past two years. Since discovering Alva
Gleam we have done some proliffic winning. He was Champion New Forest
Youngstock at Ponies UK last year and the head shot was at the Northern
Counties Championships where he was overall Champion Youngstock Mountain and
Moorland. He was second in the overall New Forest Points last year for the
New Forest Pony Enthusiasts Club out of a very high standard of mixed age
top quality New Forest Ponies.
He was also Reserve Champion at the East Anglia Native Pony Association last
year and was best of breed for the Liconshire and East Midlands Native Pony
Association and first in the Mountain and Moorland Youngstock Championship.
You dont find many "well put together" New Forest Ponies up North but he
certainly fly's the flag up North for one, if not the best top quality New Forest
Ponies. Watch this space!!! he will soon be out undersaddle.
All the best
Kate, Marley Dene Native Ponies

Dear Phil,
I have been using your products since the British elite horse show last year and I am very impressed. My horse is grey and every body knows greys don't really shine, not even under the spot light. Mine did!!!!!
When we won the Restricted 15h WHP at the winter championships 2001 under the spotlight he really did gleam!!
I am very impressed with your products and will continue to use them and recommend them to all my fellow competitors.
Many thanks,
Rebecca Sargent and Winter Restricted 15h WHP winner 2001 'GRETNA GAMBLE'
