Someone has lent me their pessoa-type training aid to use for a while but has lost the instructions. Ive been told by my physio to use it on the lowest setting, what attaches to where for this? Does anyone have a photo? Thanks :)

So the bit goes behind there hind quarters under their tale, then two bits of string (one on each side) should thread through the lowest ring of your roller.

Then one clip goes onto the horses bit and then depending on your horse you clip the other clips between your horses front legs back to the roller underneath or you can clip them back on the metal ring the rope is threaded through.

Its hard to explain might help if you see some pictures :)

Once you have got long and low sorted you can eventually thread the rope through the higher rings but this is once your horse as the correct muscle build up, this can take months or you may harm your horse.
