Equine Balance Bands
Training aids are always a hot topic that divide opinion as to their efficacy. Many of the various aids on the market can achieve the desired results but will often have some detrimental effects too. At Jenny Lewis Animal Wellness we particularly like the Equine Balance Band System. The specially formulated bands maintain a following and supportive contact with the horse's body during movement, providing continuous feedback to the central nervous system so that the horse becomes more aware of his body and limbs. This means the horses body is encouraged towards more correct movement itself rather than being forced or restricted in any way, resulting in better form and muscle engagement. These resistance bands can be used in a wide range of activities from work in hand, to lunging and long reining, under saddle, over poles and whilst hacking, which makes them hugely versatile. The Equine Core Conditioning System has been developed for use with many different types of horse and can be incorporated into both general and rehabilitative training regimes.
By purchasing your band system through us we can often find you a discounted price making them a really cost effective solution to helping your horse develop a strong core and correct from. We also provide a fitting service where Jenny will ensure your bands are set up correctly for your horse and that you are confident in using them appropriately.
Use of the bands stimulates:
- Core muscle development
- Engagement of the hind quarters
- Strength building and support of the back and pelvis.
They are amazing!! We noticed a difference straight away!! So pleased with the results. Thank you so much Jenny for introducing this awesome equipment to help strengthen my horses back xx
