Massage Pads

[CAZ123]

I want to buy my horse a massage pad. I can't afford the cyclossage rug they are 3500.
But wondered if anyone has used the Equilibrium or Equissage pads! Or any recommendations on any others out there.

I have used an Equissage, I think they are great but I just don't like how top heavy they are.

I have an Equilibrium massage pad. All the horses have it on before and after work every day, they absolute love it

The Equissage are a similar price, if not more, than the Cyclossage rugs. There are often people who own one and hire it out, have a search on FB locally? A good way to find out how the horse takes to it.

If you just want a massage pad go to Boots or somewhere similar and buy the human version at a third of the price. Works the same.

They do a range if you look on line but the one I have is a hand held massager which was about £40.

The equilbrium massage pad is a full size pad, similar to a saddle square, not a hand held unit? You strap it on and leave it for 30 mins. They are brilliant things.

Hand held massagers certainly have their uses, but aren't really comparable.

I struggled to find a handheld unit without a power cord. The one I use on myself you certainly have to plug in, but I may not have looked at the right ones! It would be a pain for me though, as my stables isn't within easy reach of a plug socket.

I love my Equilibrium pad though, as I can put it on & get on with other things. Horse loves it too.
