Back on Track saddle pad

[Green Bean]

Just wondering if anyone has a Back on Track saddle pad. I was given one as a birthday present (after making many hints). I rode my horse this weekend and it may be coincidence but she seemed to work so much better. I am fully aware of the placebo affect and seeing something where there is nothing but do wonder if anyone has experience with these saddle pads

I have a human back on track thing and it was lovely when I hurt my back so I think they really do work

Not got the saddle pad, but I do have the mesh rug, the hock boots and the leg wraps for the horse, plus a back brace for me. They really are good .

ETA plus ear warmers for me, too - and they proved their worth again today.

I've got the mesh rug and the quarter sheet . I definitely think they help

I've got the saddle pad and rambo ionic boots, rug and saddlecloth. I do think they help. I was sceptical until they really helped a friend with a wrist injury and as she didn't expect it to help I think it was unlikely to just be a placebo effect.

I totally believe they have a ceramic effect of reflecting heat back to body, and so there is a warming effect.

Can achieve sweat patterns if put a piece of tinfoil under rug over horse's quarters too.

But cannot see why want more heat under saddle when most horses working properly will sweat a bit under the saddle cloth?

Can see why might want to warm up loins / back before riding or when travelling etc.
