The Benefits of Magnetic

Magnets have been used for many years on both humans and horses, with magnetic fields known for sustaining good blood flow, while optimising muscle and joint health and therefore supporting mobility. Magnets can easily be incorporated into your horses’ everyday routine, whether this is through a rug, boots, or chaps – it is now simple to target exactly where your horse needs it most!

Magnets are great to use: 

  • Every day as part of your horses’ daily routine to support optimal health, usually overnight or in the day when stood in.
  • For horses in work from hacking to competition. This includes horses returning to work or retraining.
  • For older horses or those who are slow to warm up.
  • Horses on box rest, standing in for long periods of time or on limited turnout.
  • General knocks and bumps.

           

 

The Equilibrium Magnetic range is designed so that each product can be worn comfortably over long periods of time, ideal for those who are stabled, if you’re away at a competition, or even travelling! 

The Equilibrium Magnetic Rug allows you to place the VITAflex magnets anywhere your horse will need them! Thin, flat, and flexible, it allows them to sit comfortably against the muscle or joint you want to target.

 

Why do Equilibrium Products use VITAflex Magnets?

 

VITAflex magnets present two alternating poles to the body (negative and positive), making them different from standard Neodymium magnets, which only present one. 

VITAflex magnets have concentric circles, meaning the charge on the magnet surface is constantly alternating from north to south. These strong, circular and permanent magnetic fields of alternating pole sequences are what make them unique compared to other magnets on the market.

Both are thin and flexible, which allows the magnet to sit gently against the body and legs, so you can get direct contact with where you want to target – with the 25cm long magnets allowing you to target much larger areas on your horse.
