ON TEST : EQUILIBRIUM Therapy Massage Pad
MEET OUR TESTERS: Dianne Barrett & KnightsBridge B

Our Equine Affairs member and tester for Equilibrium’s Therapy Massage Pad was Dianne Barrett.

Dianne is an Advanced Rider and Freelance Instructor and is pictured here with her Dressage horse “Mac” whom she has trained from Prelim to Prix St George.

Equilibrium’s Therapy Massage Pad was used daily on Mac over an eight week period in conjunction with his normal exercise and turnout routine.

OUR VERDICT : EQUILIBRIUM Therapy Massage Pad


This should be top of everyone’s Christmas list! The Massage Pad totally aids the horse to both relax & accept his rider & work. It has to be a must in every yard today.

It took a few sessions for Mac to accept the Pad but now he seems to go to sleep and is completely relaxed - when the pad is working through the programs you can feel the vibrations through the whole of his body.

Mac is definitely taking a longer stride in both his walk and trot - pingingly better in fact! In addition to the length of stride he is also stretching and working through his back more easily and much sooner during his schooling sessions.

Mac has always been a horse with various back problems and stiffness which has required some type of regular therapy to help alleviate his discomfort. Since I started using the Therapy Massage Pad, nearly 8 weeks ago, I havent felt the need for anyone to see him - a great saving!

This product is tough, durable and the battery does last for ages. Everything tucks away neatly so there is never anything to bang against the horses side or catch in the stable. The belly straps are nice, wide and keep the pad securely in place. The breast strap allows you to decide how far forward or back you position it. I only wish this product had been available years ago.

I wont be telling everyone I meet about it - I want the Therapy Massage Pad to be my new secret weapon! Thank you for the opportunity to test such an innovative product.
