I recently got an Equilibrium massage mitt off of DrillShed.com and thought I’d post here about my thoughts with it. It seems like buying from that site was cheaper than anywhere else.
I used it last night on both my horse and my daughter’s old guy lease horse. I used it on the lowest vibration setting since they were new to it. I also tried it on myself and found it to be a pretty light massage but it was relaxing.
My horse tends to get tight in his neck (his chiropractor thinks there might be muscle damage from a bite on his neck as a youngster.) He really enjoyed it on his neck and I got three huge releases (big yawns) from it. He didn’t mind it on his back either and was quite relaxed during it. Afterwards he was quite fresh so I do wonder if it made him feel a little bit refreshed!
For my daughter’s lease horse he also enjoyed it on his neck the most and had 3 big licks and chews. Lots of blinking and a cocked hind leg.
I haven’t tried the heat setting on them yet, just because it was already so hot out. But I’m interested to see what the next level of massage does and the heat setting.
I’m happy with it. I don’t think it’s doing a whole lot other than feeling good and relaxing them. But they enjoy it which was the point for me.
