Our Customers Stories

For some time I’ve been looking for a product to give Chester (GB Winchester) assistance in his general joint health and wellbeing.

A number of my students have suggested that I look into a product called Rose-Hip Vital^®. These students have had success with this product with horses that suffer lameness or stiffness through “ringbone” and “joint degeneration”. That success means that they are now competing their horses in competitions and handling all the training their horses are receiving.

I decided to see what all the excitement was about and rang to speak to Justin from Rose-Hip Vital^®. I explained that Chester was sound and not suffering any lameness but with all the Grand Prix training he was undergoing, I felt he needed something to assist in his recovery. Justin explained in detail how this product does much more than help maintain healthy joints. It’s anti-inflammatory qualities help with systemic inflammation which helps to reduce swelling, inflammation and pain associated with a wide variety of conditions. He shared stories and examples of a number of performance horses at national and international level which have had success after taking this product. He suggested I trial the product for a month and report back with my feedback. After discussing the benefits of using this product, he asked about myself. Did I feel any stiffness, do I feel any soreness? It was like he read my mind. While he was previously explaining about the product, I can’t help but think what can it do for us humans. Training and riding horses is physical and there are a lot of demand put on our joints and muscles.

After a month of Chester and myself taking Rose-Hip Vital^®, I found Chester much more consistent in his approach to his work. No longer did I find him lazy and lacking in motivation one day and then enthusiastic and keen the next. I think Rose-Hip Vital^® made him feel better whether its because it reduced joint pain and soreness or whether it enabled him to recover quicker. Whichever it may be, I have found a positive result.

With myself, I have found a huge difference. No longer do I take 30 minutes to get going in the morning or feel like I need a soaking bath in the evening. Similar to other equestrian riders and trainers, I have part of my body that wears quicker than other parts. Mine is my lower back with a bulging disc and spine bone degeneration. I no longer use pain killers.

With the success and difference I felt, I introduced my mother to the Rose-Hip Vital^® Joint Health capsules. My mother had a hip replacement last year and as a result of the operation, her right leg is shorter than the left. Consistently walking unevenly has given her sore ankles and she has suffered sleepless nights from the pain. I am pleased to report that my mother is now pain free and she speaks highly about the product and what it has done for her.

Overall, success from each party and as much as this product has had positive results, I love that Rose-Hip Vital is a natural plant-based anti-inflammatory, it helps to maintain healthy joints, it improves general health and it improves performance.
