This soft and innovative saddle pad from Back on Track has been developed to offer maximum comfort, featuring an exterior of smooth, white teddy fleece combined with a high-performance inner fabric with embedded Welltex® technology. By promoting the horse’s blood circulation, the technology increases muscle flexibility while also having a soothing effect on stiffness and inflammation in the specific area.
During the test period, the saddle pad also showed good results for horses with sensitive backs or those suffering from saddle pressure.
Between the inner lining and the teddy fleece outer layer is a padding layer of soft foam. The padding material has good breathability which, together with its moisture-regulating properties, ensures that the horse’s back remains dry and comfortable throughout the entire riding session. The pad is kept in place with both saddle straps and girth attachments.

Welltex®
The unique composition of natural minerals in Welltex® technology captures body heat and converts it into long-wave infrared energy, which is then reflected back to the skin, joints, and muscles. The infrared energy is known for its ability to promote blood circulation and can therefore be helpful during recovery from injuries, wear and tear, inflammation, or tense muscles.
Getting started with Back on Track
Back on Track products with Welltex® technology should be introduced gradually to allow the body to adapt to the effect. The recommendation is a maximum of 4 hours per day during the first 2–3 days, then gradually increase usage by one hour at a time. After the introduction period, the products should be used for at least 8 hours per day, preferably longer. It may take up to 10–20 days of use to achieve maximum results.
If you experience that the effect begins to diminish, it may be beneficial to take a break from the product. After the neutralization period, you can start again and reintroduce the product.
The products are best used in direct contact with the skin but are also effective with a thin layer of fabric underneath. They can be used during both rest and activity, but the best effect is achieved during activity due to higher body temperature and thus stronger heat reflection.
Use together with liniment or similar products at your own discretion, as the effect may be enhanced when used simultaneously.
Please note
In some cases, increased blood flow may cause a sensation of irritation or tenderness. The reaction is entirely individual and experienced differently by each user, but it is important to be aware of this so it can be noted if necessary.
The initial reaction may occur after just a few hours of use. If discomfort is experienced, the product should not be used again the same day; instead, try introducing the product more gradually over the following days.
Use the product only according to the instructions and consult a physician if symptoms persist. If you are undergoing medical treatment, consult your doctor if you are unsure how the product may affect your treatment.
Do not use during pregnancy or gestation.
