Have you ever felt like there was potential hiding in your horses, and after everything you did – they still weren’t performing at their peak?  Maybe you’ve started over several times, thinking that the secret to success was finding the right equine talent, only to be disappointed.

Today’s competitive world requires a high caliber horse, no doubt.  But the winning equine athlete you’re looking for is quite possibly in your barn right now – and I’d love to help you reveal the potential in the horses you already have!

I’m Heather Smith, WPRA Barrel Racer, Best-Selling Author, creator of BarrelRacingTips.com, and wife to USTRC Reserve World Champion Team Roper, Craig Smith.  This is our EquiVibe story.

You’ve Heard About Equine Whole Body Vibration, but How Does it Work?

When horses are in motion, there is gravity that pulls them down to the earth, and rebounding ground reaction force. Whole Body Vibration (with proper mechanics), delivers vertical impulses from the bottom up.  When standing on an EquiVibe plate, a horse’s entire body vibrates due to the frequency of the platform, which causes muscles to contract and stretch in order to sustain balance. These natural reflexes are involuntary (much like the human knee jerk reaction), and happen very rapidly.

EquiVibe LogoTherefore, while “vibing” between gravity and the platform, horses gain benefit from the resulting stimulation to their bones, muscles, nerves, circulatory systems, and soft tissues, making it a very powerful form of conditioning and equine sports therapy.

When a horse is exercised, they use approximately 40% of their muscles, whereas with an EquiVibe plate they are using well over 90%, some they may have never used before.  During normal training and conditioning, a horse’s muscles contract one or two times per second, as compared to 10 to 60 times per second with whole body equine vibration therapy.

I like to think of it as a gentle way to stimulate and condition muscles, bone, ligaments and tendons without the damaging wear & tear that comes along with actual riding.  It’s not a replacement for exercise, but it’s a way to help our horses recover from training and performing to stay in the best shape possible (for as long as possible)!

What Benefits Does EquiVibe Whole Body Vibration Therapy Provide?

Outside of conditioning soft tissues and developing muscles, which leads to increased strength and equine bone density, one of the immediate effects of WBV (whole body vibration) on the EquiVibe platform is improved lymphatic and blood circulation.

Improved circulation is of significant benefit to the equine athlete, because increased blood flow improves oxygenation of the tissues, supporting the removal of toxins and metabolic waste, which boosts the immune system and enhances the body’s natural ability to stay healthy and heal itself drug free, which translates into less illness, soreness and especially – injury prevention.

In my personal experience, I’ve seen the EquiVibe plate bring balance to the horse’s body by both decreasing excess fluid, heat and swelling to compromised areas, while simultaneously bringing a vital boost of warmth and circulation to others.

How is EquiVibe Different Than Other Equine Vibration Platforms?

The primary characteristic that sets EquiVibe apart, is that it delivers VERTICAL VIBRATION, which is the type preferred by medical and veterinary professionals, for horses and humans alike.  This is because when we walk or run (due to the physics of gravity), we don’t do so in a side to side motion, but the movement is up and down.  Vertical vibration works with the horse (vs. against), to more closely mirror and simulate natural movement.  This is very important, because not all equine vibration platforms operate with vertical vibration.

EquiVibe StretchSecond, true whole body vibration is delivered from a stable, solid platform. Some other equine “vibe plates” operate with a circular, or side to side motion from a moving platform, creating a stressful “jack hammer” or “teeter totter” effect. Not only is this less beneficial – with the vibration sometimes only reaching the horse’s knees (vs. their entire body), these types of unnatural vibration may even be detrimental to a horse’s health. The secret to EquiVibe’s effectiveness, is that it’s a stationary platform operating with widely adjustable (10 to 60 hertz), smooth, VERTICAL vibration.

Another major benefit, is that every EquiVibe equine vibration platform is delivered with a special guide outlining specific programs based on the issues being addressed, including recommended frequency settings. Different health issues benefit from different vibrational frequencies, so depending on level of fitness or type of equine rehabilitation desired, the duration and frequency of use will vary. For example, low levels have been proven to help with increasing lymphatic drainage, mid-range frequencies help issues such as developing equine bone density, while higher ranges can reduce joint pain and enhance muscle strength.

One of EquiVibe’s medical counselors explains that “Vertical vibration will help activate the muscle spindle cells within the muscles better since it mimics the muscle contraction. Vertical vibration also activates the postural muscles which facilitate better muscle balance and coordination… Vertical equine vibration therapy alone is significant because everything in nature oscillates at a specific frequency or vibration.”  –  Dr. Kyle Daigle

How does EquiVibe Compare to Other Types of Equine Sports Therapy?

In our barn, we also use red light and microcurrent therapy in coordination with, and to compliment the healing and recovery benefits of equine whole body vibration. What I appreciate most about the EquiVibe plate, is that it’s the quickest, easiest and most convenient form of equine sports therapy and delivers the greatest over-all benefit to our horse’s entire body.

Even with the highest levels of care and awareness, we won’t always SEE obvious evidence of exactly where our horse’s need support, but EquiVibe delivers it, essentially working for us to deliver equine therapy to the areas it’s needed most.

EquiVibe Tendon RehabOn top of that, I’ve found there are serious limitations to what traditional therapies can offer a horse’s feet. However, considering that horses stand directly ON the EquiVibe platform, it’s proven to be the best (and only) way to deliver deep-penetrating therapy to the inner structures of the hoof capsule. With our experience in overcoming old collateral ligament injuries, navicular issues, and laminitis – EquiVibe has been THE best tool for hoof rehabilitation and supporting healthy hooves.

As you can see by the before and after ultrasound images (taken at 60 days), EquiVibe is an effective form of equine sports therapy for rehabilitating tendon injuries as well. In October of 2016, our (then) 16 year old gelding, “Dot Com” hyper-extended in a barrel racing run, creating a severe tear (over 50%) to his right superficial flexor tendon.

After three months of daily EquiVibe sessions, PRCA Vet. of the Year, Dr. Marty Tanner stated that Dot Com was showing healing progress at his 90-day ultrasound that he doesn’t typically see until the SIX MONTH mark. After several months of continued daily EquiVibe sessions and hand walking, Dot Com was cleared by Dr. Tanner to start light exercise under saddle in March, then approved for speed work in June. He fully recovered and returned to professional competition in the fall of 2017.

Durable, Convenient, Efficient & Easy to Use

While we also perform hands-on equine massage therapy with our performance horses, competitors know that there are days when physical and time limitations prevent us from giving the very best of our energy and focus to our horses. But even when we have especially full schedules, we appreciate that we can always step our horses on the EquiVibe platform, where they happily ground tie and enjoy a relaxing treatment with minimal supervision, while we perform other barn chores nearby – it’s the ultimate form of multi-tasking for busy horse people!

We especially like bringing our EquiVibe on the road, where it easily fits in a trailer stall.  At just over 100 lbs. it can be moved by one person, and moved very easily with two.  If we are traveling away from home for more than one night, the EquiVibe plate always goes with us, so we can support our horses before and after competing when they need it most.

Best of all, our EquiVibe platform has not once required a repair or even a phone call to address its function, and it’s definitely received the most wear.  I admire and appreciate how solidly it’s built and how low (no) maintenance it is.  When other tools break, need expensive repair, or time consuming maintenance that requires down time – that has never been the case with our EquiVibe.  Time is the most valuable resource we ALL have, and investing in EquiVibe has saved us a ton!

After Dot Com’s diagnosis of “navicular” in 2013 (including bony changes), he was lame for over a year. He overcame that to start a new career as a barrel horse, and competed at many barrel races and Texas pro rodeos. He bounced back a second time from a severe tendon tear (over 50%) to successfully return to the arena at age 17 as a professional team roping (head) horse. He’s still going strong today and winning ropings (at age 23) with EquiVibe therapy pre-ride!

Frosty was retired in 2008 when he developed ring bone after an overreaching incident while competing as a head horse. He was later discovered to also be dealing with sub-clinical laminitis. After not being comfortable enough to get out of a walk, seven years after his retirement he was sprinting across the pastures again!

Pistol suffered an injury to the collateral ligaments in his feet in 2012. Even after aggressive treatment, years later he still wasn’t sound. After a setback in 2015, in 2017 he made his official comeback to competition thanks to a gradual seven month rehab period, and is now performing (and clocking) better than before his injury many years ago. As of 2023, Pistol is still competitive and performing as a barrel horse – clocking better than in his youth!

Here are just a few Equivibe equine vibration plate reviews:

“A lot of equine rehabilitation and racetrack places have the EquiVibe. It increases circulation, builds muscle, helps build equine bone density, increases circulation to internal organs and helps foot growth. It is one of the best investments I’ve made, especially on a horse that you don’t want to physically exercise, you can stand them on that for 10-20 minutes a day and it keeps them fit. I use it every day on all of my horses.”   – Two-Time Barrel Racing World Champion, Lindsay Sears

“I truly believe in EquiVibe and how it has helped my horses recover and perform at their best…EquiVibe has proven itself in my barn with phenomenal results. My barrel horse is feeling amazing and performing better than he was before, shaving tenths off personal bests. I highly recommend the EquiVibe to anyone for preventive, performance, and equine rehabilitation care; it’s a part of my horse’s lifestyle. Thank you so much EquiVibe!” – Morgan S., KS

“EquiVibe has been a major tool in our training program. We have seen tighter legs, and the soundness of our futurity horses has been unbelievable. Five days after straining a suspensory on a front ankle, our horse is sound and able to be ridden because of EquiVibe – thank you for developing such a great product!”   – Two-Time World’s Greatest Horseman, Ron Ralls


Take it From Us and Other Champions Who Depend on EquiVibe

Craig & Heather SmithIf there’s one thing we’ve learned, it’s that we get out of our horses what we put in. More and more competitors today are understanding that the missing link to increasing a horse’s performance is found in higher quality care and improved health. Even with horses whose bodies have been compromised in the past, it IS possible to go from “washed up” to winning, and come back even stronger from injuries. With wise management choices, we can also stay ahead of the natural aging process for long-term health and soundness, and optimize already existing equine talent for dramatically better results.

An EquiVibe Vibration Platform is an investment that yields a long-term, measurable return.

You can look forward to experiencing and enjoying longer lasting, successful careers for your horses, greater all-around equine health & wellness, fewer vet visits & injections, quick recoveries, successful equine rehabilitation and more complete healing from injuries, and prevention of many all-together, for less downtime – and more riding & winning!
