The PU exterior makes the product very durable but also hygienic – which is ideal if it is shared among several horses and ponies. It is water and grease resistant. This material combined with the padding also makes it comfortable for the horse.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe six massage motors are located in targeted areas for horses and ponies. There are two on either side of the wither, two in the middle section of the pad, and two in the saddle area. The careful design of the massage pad facilitates the spread of massage to the back muscles.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe heating element is located in the hind quarter of the Massage Pad and heats a gel pad, which in turn heats the horse. This ensures the heat is evenly and consistently distributed. It also acts as a safety gate. This part of the Massage Pad also has a sensor to ensure the horse does not overheat, for example when using the pad in warm weather or after exercise when the horse is naturally warm.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4 id=\"kuinka-hoidan-massage-pad-heatsensea\"\u003eHow do I care for the Massage Pad Heatsense?\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Massage Pad Heatsense only needs to be wiped down with a lightly damp, clean cloth if the material becomes dirty.
