Grooming and tacking up

We all tense up when we are cold. And that’s no way to prepare for exercise. Tense muscles are prone to strains. Many horses become very excited at the prospect of being ridden out, and are difficult to keep calm during the usual warm-up phase.

Groom and tack up under the warmth of Equine SunSwitch and you will immediately feel the benefit. Your horse will start to warm up before he leaves the yard, thus minimising any harmful effects of his enthusiasm.

Older horses (and riders) particularly appreciate being warmed before exercise. Your horse will relax and enjoy getting ready for work, and you can set off without blocks of ice for feet.
