Chambon

The Chambon* is a very useful piece of equipment. It helps your horse to stretch forwards ands downwards correctly.

£28.08 inc P&P (UK)






The chambon fits most horses and ponies. It should not be fitted too tightly. It should be just taut when your horse is standing in a relaxed manner with the poll level with the withers.

If your horse has a very thick muscle under his neck, then have the chambon adjusted so that the underneath muscle is soft. If your horse does not stretch down at first, do not panic. He needs time to develop the correct muscles.
If your horse is very stiff through his back, neck and poll, it could take a few weeks or longer before he will easily stretch downwards.

Look for his back and belly muscles working- this may be all you see at first.
If you feel the cord needs to be shorter, then you could tie a knot in it! Keep your horse at a steady walk or trot. If he goes too fast, he will be too tense to stretch down, so take it slowly and give him a chance to relax
