Just Equine Horse Twitch
Just Equine Horse Twitch is a device that is used on horses for various stressful situations, such as veterinary treatment. Although it may look and sound like an awful piece of kit. A twitch actually calms the horse by releasing endorphins as pressure is applied to the horse via the twitch. Which therefore causing the horse any pain.
The most common nose twitch has a long, wooden handle with a rope loop and is applied to the horse’s nose rather than to the neck or skin. The long handle provides greater safety for the handler as well as the horse. It also means that the handler can treat the horse more than arms length.
