"Back on Track" Products

[Daytona]

Has or does anyone use the "Back on Track" products, in particular the Mesh rug or saddle pad...?

Are they worth the money and did you see an improvement.

As there not cheap I dont want to go wasting my money.

thanks

havent used any of the horse stuff but bought one of the leg wrap things for dogs which was fantastic!

My dog had a swollen hock following a fracture and it reduced the swelling in the area markedly and assisted inhis recovery.

I use the summer, fleece and stable rugs, the quick wraps, saddle cloth and exercise boots and highly recommend them. They are well made, comfortable and keep the body at the desired tempreture.

I also have the insoles in my boots and have not had cold feet all winter.

I don't have the rugs or saddle pad but I do have a set of their quick wraps- which are fantastic- my horse moves really nice and loosely after he's had these on especially if i stick them on for a good few hours at a time, a few days in succession. They keep his legs really flat and tight-highly recommend!

The hock boots and the back pad are on my shopping list!

P.s I bought mine from Dave Wilson Harness supplies website in Scotland- think they have an ebay shop too.

have any of you used magnetic stuff as well...???

I know back on track uses Ceramic but i know you also get the magnetic rugs which i assume are similar in the effects.

I don't know which to go for a magnetic rug or a back on track , my mare is a tense little horse , I already use the Massage pad but thought maybe as well as this i could use a rug to help her loosen up a bit over her back.

Any thoughts on which is better or more suited..?

I used to use a magnetic rug all the time before I had the back on track rugs but I now find that I don't need to use the magnetic rug as much - just before shows or after hard work - and I use both together and the effect is great.

I've got the mesh sheet which I've used to warm muscles up prior to competing/clinicing - found it to be very good; made a mistake on a last outing though of putting it on after work while my mare was a bit warm and she just cooked up... very effective for heat transfer.
I've used the woolly hat, back support and t shirts on myself, done a really good job at suppling me up early in the morning when staying overnight at shows, and for keeping warm on cold clinic days. Definitely got the thumbs up so far.
