Equilibrium Therapy Heatsense Massage Pad

The Equilibrium massage pad is lightweight and easy to carry. The massage pad stimulates your horse's back muscles through a pulsating and vibrating motion. The massage pad can be used as a warm-up and/or cool-down. Flexible in use due to 3 different programs that vary in intensity.

Clinical research has shown that back flexibility is improved and that the massage pad has a relaxing effect. The pad has an anatomical shape, allowing it to fit nicely from the withers to the loins. The battery is set to a 30-minute program; after 30 minutes, the massage pad automatically turns off. The pad has 3 different programs, allowing you to determine the intensity of the massage yourself.

When do you use the massage pad?

• For horses on box rest to stimulate blood circulation in the body
• After an intense training to remove waste products
• Before a training as part of the warm-up
• For recovery after long transport
• On your horse's day off for maintaining supple muscles

How does the massage pad work?

Heat

Heat is non-invasive, gentle, and widely accepted with many associated benefits, including:

• Maintaining good oxygen supply to the muscles.
• Promoting muscle relaxation.
• Increasing tissue flexibility and elasticity.

Massage

This massage pad has 3 different programs: intensive, medium, and low. The desired program can be easily selected via the controller attached to the battery. This allows you to choose the intensity of the program that best suits your horse at that moment. Each program has 3 different types of massage: a pulsating movement, a vibrating movement, and a stroking movement. This ensures that all muscles are loosened in different ways. 

The massage pad can be easily integrated  into your daily warm-up and cool-down routine. The medium program is ideal for warming up muscles before an intensive training session. The low program is suitable as a cool-down after a training session. The intensive program is suitable for horses with back problems or when you want a more intensive massage, for example, after a heavy competition or intensive training. Each program lasts 30 minutes and stops automatically.

The massage pad fits a large number of horses and ponies and can therefore be easily used for multiple horses. The massage pad comes in a convenient carrying bag, making it easy to take to lessons or competitions.
