Magnetic Rug or Equilbrium Massage Pad?

[EEquine]

Hi,
I was looking to buy either however has anyone tried either or both? Is there any difference? Any recommendations?
Thanks in advance!

Buy a hot water bottle. It will do your horse way more good than the massage pads.

Magnets - its up to the individual if they believe they work or not. I am not a believer but I would rather buy a mag rug over a massage pad any day of the week.

Jay Man loves his massage pad, as did Sherlock before him. They go all gooey eyed, and will stand tied up all relaxed and happy. Not sure if the Equlibrium has any therapeutic value, but my horses have loved them.

I'm not sure I understand the exact benefits of the back on track rug, I have looked at them! Does it help your horse alot?

I reviewed it on my blog which might help you understand the benefits: http://geegeeandme.blogspot.co.uk/2016/02/back-on-track-mesh-rug-review.html

Most definitely warms their muscles up, which is in effect what magnets do therefore I agree it improves circulation and I have found it hugely beneficial and the more its worn the better my horse goes.

Have you managed to find the massage pad for sale anywhere? I was looking recently and they all seemed to be out of stock. I wonder if they are bringing out a new model or something. They get good reviews on here.

No properly conducted studies have EVER shown any effect from magnets . Think about it! If those pads actually worked , an MRI scan would be instantly fatal.

Mine go 'gooey eyed' with both their massage pad and their BOT fleece rugs. Come to think of it, I also go gooey eyed if I wear the massage pad, it's incredibly relaxing, the programme goes through a repeating cycle of varied intensity so you can feel your muscles responding all the while.

I've had good results with my Equilibrium magnetic pad. I know not everyone believes they have any theraputic value, but I've seen a big difference since using them on two horses.
