This soft and innovative saddle pad from Back on Track is developed to offer maximum comfort, featuring an exterior made of soft teddy fleece and a high-functional inner lining embedded with Welltex technology. By promoting the horse's blood circulation, the technology enhances muscle flexibility while also providing a relieving effect on issues of stiffness and inflammation in the specific area.
During the testing period, the saddle pad also demonstrated good results for horses with a sensitive back or suffering from saddle pressure.
Between the saddle pad's inner lining and the top surface in teddy fleece, there is a filling layer of soft foam. The filling material has good breathability, which, combined with its moisture-regulating properties, ensures the horse's back remains dry and comfortable throughout the entire ride. The pad is held in place using both saddle straps and girth loops.

Welltex®
Welltex® technology's unique composition of natural minerals 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, thus being helpful in recovery from injuries, strains, inflammations, or tense muscles.
Getting started with Back on Track
Back on Track's products, with Welltex technology, should be gradually introduced to allow the body to adapt to the effect. The recommendation suggests a maximum of 4 hours/day for the first 2-3 days, gradually increasing usage by one hour at a time. Once the introduction period is over, the products should be used for a minimum of 8 hours per day, preferably longer. It may take up to 10-20 days of use before maximum results are achieved.
However, if you notice a decline in effectiveness, taking a break from the product might be beneficial. After the neutralization period, you can restart and reintroduce the product.
The products are best used directly in 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 most effective results are during activity due to higher body temperature and hence stronger heat reflection.
Use in combination with liniment or similar products with your own judgment; the effect can be enhanced with simultaneous use.
Considerations
An increased blood circulation, in some cases, may have a sensation perceived as irritating or tender. The reaction is entirely individual, and everyone experiences the effect differently, but it's essential to be aware of it to address if needed.
The initial reaction can occur after an hour of use. If discomfort arises, refrain from using the product further on the same day. Instead, consider gradually introducing the product over the following days.
Only use the product according to the instructions and consult a doctor if symptoms persist. If undergoing medical treatment, consult your doctor if unsure about how the product affects your treatment.
Avoid use during pregnancy or expecting.
