The Balance Rein is like a “necklace” or a second rein at the base of the neck that rebalances a horse. It is used with a bridle for horses who have a tendency to come above the bit or behind the vertical, in combination with a snaffle or the TTouch^® Training bit. The Balance Rein collects the horse and keeps him in a state of balance. The Balance Rein also invites horses to bring their backs up, to lengthen and to round the neck.

This style of Balance Rein offers a more attractive look and is made of woven nylon rope with buckle attachment in leather-like hand-holder. Available in black.

The balance rein measurement at its shortest length is 27 inches and the longest length is 35 inches. The Balance Rein comes with a string called a “grazing string.” Tie it to a ring on the saddle. In case you are NOT holding the Balance Rein and your horse puts his head down to “graze” or scratch his nose, the Balance Rein will not slide off. Attached with a toggle slide, the string is easily removed from the Balance Rein. Read more in The Joy of Riding with TTouch Equipment
