Designed and created by the team who brought you Ice-Vibe®, Sportz-Vibe is a massage therapy blanket for horses. Sportz-Vibe is a comfortable, lightweight and portable massage blanket.
Ideal as a warm-up or recovery blanket, it helps to warm up muscles before work and ease soreness and stiffness afterwards. Sportz-Vibe’s massage action is gentle enough that it won’t over-work your horse’s muscles, but will effectively reduce muscle tension, and removable massage panels mean you can target a specific area.
Massage therapy is one of the oldest known methods of therapy, and is renowned for its ability to promote healing. Massage can help to reduce pain, improve blood supply to tissue, and reduce inflammation in horses that are suffering from long term muscular back problems. By encouraging the lymph system to move, massage helps to drain inflammation and stimulate repair to damaged tissue.
The blanket has an adjustable front that allows one blanket to treat three different size of horses. Elasticated surcingles allow panels to fit securely to the animal. There are four areas that vibration panels can be positioned on the blanket: the neck, shoulders, center back and hind quarters.
When you purchase the blanket you will receive four vibration panels, battery controller, cable & transformer (charger), and a splitter cable to connect the panels to the battery. Spare parts are sold separately.
The Sportz-Vibe massage blanket also comes in a dog version!
