Protechmasta Far Infrared Therapy Poll Guard is designed to assist with relieving pressure over the poll. The ergonomic designed shape means this pad will fit under most bridles or headcollars, providing extra comfort over the poll area and behind the ears. Designed with a deeper section over the poll and sides of browband area to give added support and comfort where needed most. Fits under most bridle or headcollar headpieces and securely fasten in place using the adjustable hook and loop straps. The straps can be trimmed to size if required for a neater appearance. This poll guard is ideal to use when traveling as will add extra comfort and padding to a regular headcollar. The ceramic infused FIR lining can help to relive muscle tension and sensitivity over the poll area.

Question: What is the Protechmasta range?

Answer: Far Infrared Technology - A naturalistic ceramic infused lining that emits a safe form of Far Infrared radiation, also known as Biogenetic Radiation, to the body, this is then reflected from the body creating a natural black body effect. Far infrared radiation is a natural process and is scientifically proven to assist blood circulation gently and safely, therefore, helping to reduce any swelling, ease muscle tension and support recovery and help in the prevention of injury.

Frequently Asked Questions

Question: What is the difference between the faux fur poll guard and non faux fur poll guard?
A: Both Protechmasta poll guards work to help relieve muscle tension and sensitivity behind the ears and over the poll area whilst also providing extra padding under the bridle/headcollar. Both poll pads are ergonomic in design covering between the ears and at the base of the skull. The only difference is the addition of the faux fur trim for added comfort on the faux fur trim option.

Question: Will the poll guard fit my bridle with a wide headpiece/comfort style?
A: The Poll guard has been designed to fit most conventional headpieces. The adjustable fastenings will adjust to approximately 6cm wide at the widest point, please measure the width of your headpiece to check it will fit if you are unsure.

Question: Will the Protechmasta poll guard help with headshaking?
A: We have had many reviews from our customers who have said the Protechmasta poll guard and fly veil products have helped with head shaking.

Question: How do I attach the poll guard to the bridle?

Answer: The poll guard has three adjustable fastenings, so you can place under the headpiece of your bridle.

Question: Is the Bridle poll pad one size?

Answer: The Bridle poll pad comes in one size which will fit most horses. It is approximately 26cm long and 4.5cm wide with three adjustable fastenings.

Question: Will the poll guard fit my bridle with a wide headpiece/comfort style?.

Answer: The Poll guard has been designed to fit most conventional headpieces. The adjustable fastenings will adjust to 6.5cm wide at their widest point, please measure the width of your headpiece to check it will fit if you are unsure.

Question: What is the difference between the Protechmasta fly veil and the Protechmasta poll guard?

Answer: The Fly Veil covers the horses ears and a larger surface area over the poll and browband area and the ears are fully lined with protechmasta material. The Protechmasta poll guard is to designed to target the poll area and will help relieve muscle tension and sensitivity behind the ears and over the poll area. The poll guards offer slightly more padding under the bridle than the fly veil.

*DISCLAIMER* The Protechmasta products are not a replacement for professional medical advice or treatment. Consult your vet if you are unsure. 

*A black body is an object or organism (in this case the horse) that absorbs all FIR radiation that is placed upon it, (in this case the Far Infrared Radiating ceramics infused into the lining of the Protechmasta Poll Guard.) It then reflects this radiation back at the same frequency that has been generated by the initiating blackbody, the horse *

I have a VERY stressy 12h Welsh pony. I've literally spent hundreds of £££'s on calming supplements with no success. I've only used the Poll Guard twice, so still a bit early to be sure but both times (one lunging and one with my daughter riding), I have never seen the pony so relaxed! And this was after 6 weeks of Covid enforced rest, so I was expecting her to be on her toes. Looks promising so far

We have a used this on a young mare you can at times become anxious and begins to head shake when she gets frustrated with her work. We have noticed a dramatic reduction in the head shaking, and this has been the only poll guard she has tolerated due to a more even distribution of pressure and the lightweight nature of the material. I suspect when she began to sweat around her bridle that she head shook even more, the guard also helps wick the sweat. Honestly very impressed in this product, especially the price

I have used the poll guard 3 times, for short schooling sessions, it seems to be helping but need to go on a hack before I really know. I usually buy size full, but read a review that they come up big. So I got a cob and it fits well, and was easy to fit.

I have to admit I bought the Protechmasta Infrared Poll Guard very sceptical that it would have any positive influence on my horse 's way of going. But from the first time of using it the muscle knots on one side of her neck disappeared, and her contact with the bit improved. Now it is a permanent part of my tack. However I do wish the Velcro tabs on the top of the headstall allowed for the greater width of modern comfort bridles.

My little mare shakes her head. I’ve been using this for a couple of weeks, under head collar when in stable, being led on exercise and yesterday toward the end of a schooling session she came gently down onto the bit with a light contact. We didn’t push it for long and finished on a good note. Please note that she has had a new saddle fitted and also her back has been worked on by an osteopath.

Helen B

The poll guard is of a good size and comfortable to the touch however when I went to fit it to my bridle the attachment strap in the middle wasn't long enough to fit around my headpiece . I had to buy a piece of velcro and extend it myself. I think because the ergonomic bridles have wider headpieces I would recommend that the poll guards are manufactured so the central piece of velcro can accomodate the wider headpiece. Apart from that all good.

Instant positive result from our mare who had held tension in poll and jaw despite padded headpiece. This has made a significant difference and am thrilled - Much happier and relaxed horse who takes the contact now more readily. Only hiccup came schooling when it was hot and she didn’t like having it then and shook her head...maybe something to just bear in mind in heat. Otherwise great product.

Fits easily. My horse seemed to relax immediately it was fitted. He has been a headshaker during spring and summer for the past 3 years - appearing yo get worse each year. He has also appeared tight through the poll for as long as I've owned him. Headshakingg was significantly reduced during lungeing and riding whilst he was wearing the poll guard. Although this may possibly be a coincidence - I am very pleased with the product.

I use this with the rug for travelling my horse as he can get upset when travelling. Using this before and during travelling keeps him calm and relaxed. I also use this for ridden work. He has quite a high head carraige and can be easily distracted being a stallion. When he has this on, he softens and lowers much easier and quicker along with being more focused on his job.

WOW! Only used this the once so far to travel my daughters 'highly strung T/B' eventer the BE100 at Stratford Hill (June 16 2018). Normally he is difficult to get on but to our utter amazement she was able to get on straight away, he stood still and did not walk around and around the mounting block like he usually does and he did not try to tank off before she was fully on board! He is always very tense in Dressage but this time was much more relaxed so hoping for better scores in the future! The only change to our normal routine was wearing the Protechmasta Poll Guard on the 1 hour and 45 mins journey to the event. Very excited to be using this product and seeing our much loved boy a lot calmer and less stressed! Will update our progress as the season develops! A big thanks to Masta for developing this wonderful, natural product and to Harry Hall One Club for offering at such a fantastic price!

What sorcery is this?! Amazed at how quickly it worked with my rather highly strung TB ex racehorse, who is known to suffer from a lot of tension thru his poll. He relaxed literally within minutes of my putting it on him, even happily allowing me to touch the top of his neck (normally a definite no no!) After moving yards recently, he was very unsettled when in his stable, and would box walk constantly. Since i started using the poll guard, he has begun to lay down in his stable, and be generally more settled. Can't recommend highly enough!
