The magnets used in Equilibrium's Magnetic Chaps for horses and present two alternating poles to the body, negative and positive, making them different to standard Neodymium magnets, which present only one pole. These strong, linear and permanent magnetic fields of alternating pole sequences penetrate into the body tissue.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eHow long will the magnets last?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe magnets will not become less efficient over time.

This lead to his owner, Margaret Donnelly, designing the Net Relief Muzzle Net to help him. Word got out about the Muzzle Net and how it helped Timmy and many other horses. Horse \u0026amp; Hound featured it and the phones started to go mad! Who would have thought one person trying to solve a problem with their horse could have such a large impact. From then on, Margaret realised she actually had lots of product ideas – Timmy was a source of inspiration! Fast forward 25 years and Equilibrium are still here with their core message of ‘Making a difference to horses’ lives.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Equilibrium","offers":[{"title":"XS","offer_id":53713940152663,"sku":"EQEE00052","price":138.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"S","offer_id":53713940185431,"sku":"EQEE00053","price":138.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"M","offer_id":53713940218199,"sku":"EQEE00054","price":138.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"L","offer_id":53713940250967,"sku":"EQEE00055","price":138.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":false},{"title":"XL","offer_id":53713940283735,"sku":"EQEE00056","price":138.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1908\/4213\/files\/Equilibrium_Hind_Hock_Magnetic_Chaps_1.jpg?v=1780655290","url":"https:\/\/redmillsstore.ie\/products\/equilibrium-hind-hock-magnetic-chaps","provider":"Red Mills Store IE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
