Sarah Lavelle Bowden owns Saddles Direct and Elite Saddles as well as having three of her own horses. After purchasing the System earlier in 2009 she has been bowled over by the results.

"I have three thoroughbreds that compete in dressage and have a tendency to get sore and tight over the back as they are a lot more sensitive than some of the more robust warmbloods. I was finding myself requiring the physio every 6 weeks to treat them and when I was at BETA this year I spotted the Cyclo-ssage Pro Equine Massage System, along with another competitor’s product and started to consider purchasing one. I then saw Cyclo-ssage again at the National Dressage Championships and tried the Pro Personal System myself and really felt the benefits. I decided that in order to make a decision I should trial both products and see how the horses reacted to them both. I instantly preferred the Cyclo-ssage system as I felt it was easy and lightweight and effective as well as being more versatile as magnotherapy doesn't work with as many conditions and can vary from horse to horse."

"The proof has really been in the pudding. I have a grey horse just out of racing who was diagnosed with muscle atrophy - which meant that he had serious muscle wastage on one side due to racing on just one rein and was slightly lame - the vet said that over a month or so it would start to improve, however I used the System every day for just one week and on returning the vet couldn't believe it - the lameness had completely disappeared and the muscles had minimal tightness."

"We have an ex 3* event horse who came back in to work after 18 months off with serious muscle wastage - I use the System daily on him and it has helped improve his whole outlook - his coat was dull and lifeless and after using the System he is now bright as a button. He loves the treatment and neighs when he sees the rug! Another horse has been on box rest with a pedal bone infection and using the System has significantly reduced the amount of muscle wastage. We are on a large livery yard and everyone has tried the System and found it to have positive results, we also recommend it to any of our saddlery clients - especially when horses are sore after wearing ill-fitting saddles."

"It is great to find a product that really does what it says on the tin - the vet and physio are both really impressed by it and it is now a valuable part of our management routine."
