Description
Core muscles mobilise and stabilise the horse’s back. Core strength helps to prevent the development of back pain and injuries. The Equiband™ system has been developed specifically to stimulate receptors in the horse’s skin and hair follicles. In response to this stimulation, the abdominal, sublumbar and deep neck and back muscles are activated. These muscles raise and round the back and engage the hindquarters. Regular use of the Equiband™ system strengthens this core musculature, making it easier for the horse to work in a round outline and reducing the risk of pain and injury due to hollowing or instability of the joints in the neck and the back. This system is unique in the sense it does not interfere with the horses head and mouth, allowing for correct and safe activation of the core and hindquarters.
Your Equiband™ system comes complete with saddle pad, two pre-threaded sets of Equiband™ (two shorter abdominal bands and two longer hindquarter bands), as well as a tape measure and user guide. For safety, it is essential to follow the guide on how to fit and use the Equiband™ system. Please click on this link for a fitting guide https://equicoreconcepts.com/guide/
