Tailored Connection through Elegance
The Equipoise is a tailormade solution that addresses the differences between the inherent asymmetrical nature of the horse’s skeletal structure and the rigid design of the modern symmetrical saddle.
Unbeknownst, this misalignment may restrict the musculoskeletal system, thus altering harmony which is one of the most significant causes of performance limitations and regular and/or unexplained mild lameness or uneven movement in horses, not to mention back pain.
Equipoise is a unique product in the equine industry that has significantly contributed to the achievement and performance of many horses and riders.
Jumpers and dressage riders have reported more effortless and lengthier strides.
In trial testing on saddlers, shoulder range increased.
The Equipoise can increase the speed of endurance horses and decrease their heart rates during working, resting, and recovery because unneeded resistance is removed.
Most importantly, it has been proven to reduce the number of horses experiencing musculoskeletal pain and mild lameness in all disciplines, a benefit that sets it apart from other products in the market.
The Equipoise saddle pad is a win-win for both the horse and the rider. It can redistribute a rider’s weight and seat, which is particularly beneficial for riders experiencing pain or restriction ensuring that you as rider, cause no harm to your horse.
Equipoise Saddle Pad
The Equipoise is not your average saddle pad. It boasts unique features that distinguish it from regular numnahs. Unlike a standard numnah, it is adjustable, ensuring even pressure distribution along the horse's back. It tackles the symmetry issue by custom building it with various thicknesses of high-density foam which is minimally compressible, considering the horse's shape, movement, and the rider's seat. This means that while each saddle pad is designed the same, it is tailor-made to the horse’s shape and rider’s restrictions, providing a personalised fit using padding. With the Equipoise, the horse’s back is relieved from the pressure increase caused by the saddle. This design allows room for the muscle to expand and grow, even after you have adjusted your saddle pad, effectively addressing the primary cause of your initial problem.
The secret revealed
There is a secret to the fitting. The “free” muscle can still develop normally, and the vicious cycle can be stopped. Comparable products use compressible foam, gel, or air, which, in my experience, usually disperses at the point where the most pressure is created, limiting muscle growth and, therefore, not offering a permanent solution.Uniquely Balanced

Sound familiar?
Of course it does! Horses are also dominant on one side. the goal is to get them even. The Equipoise can!
Most horses’ handedness affects the efficiency of the saddle’s construction. We can solve your problem by adjusting the Equipoise to fit rider and horse.
Constant musculoskeletal strain will be experienced as your horse’s body has to fight against the resistance of symmetry with its asymmetrical body. The equipoise can help, and your days of mystery lameness will be gone.
We have seen great success due the decrease in resistance of movement of the horse. Because movement is simply easier, the horse’s go out of alignment less and manage with less adjustment treatment and symptoms muscular strain/stiffness.
