My first horse was a cribber and I eventually lost him to colic, so when my new gelding started cribbing it brought back a lot of anxiety. He also carried so much tension through his poll, especially on working days. I started using the VitaWell red light cap after our rides and he just seems so much more at ease. His poll feels softer, he lowers his head while I use it, and now he'll actually stand quietly in his stall eating hay instead of constantly looking for something to crib on. I really wish I knew about this with my first horse.

"My gelding has cribbed for years and always carries a lot of tension through his jaw and upper neck. I wasn’t expecting this to stop the cribbing, but after adding VitaWell to our routine he doesn't reach for the bars as much anymore. This is a staple for us when we travel up to shows, he settles into his stall so much quicker. I am so happy I could take off the crib collar and see him reach for his hay net without holding that cribbing tension."

“I kept seeing red light everywhere and honestly thought it might be a gimmick. What sold me was how easy this is to use and how powerful the lights actually are. I put it on my mare while I’m grooming or cleaning tack, and she usually starts relaxing pretty quickly. I’ve even wrapped it around my own back after a long day at the barn and noticed a difference there too. Definitely didn’t expect to love it as much as I do.”

“My gelding competes regularly and tends to get tight through his poll and upper neck after harder schooling days. I started using the VitaWell cap while I untack and cool him out, and he settles into it almost immediately. It’s become part of our post-ride routine before show weekends.”

"My biggest concern was whether my horse would tolerate something sitting around his ears and poll. He can be fussy about anything new, but the fit is soft and adjustable and he settled into it almost immediately. No complicated setup, no cords everywhere. That alone makes me use it way more consistently"
Why Red Light Matters
The ride ends. But the poll tension doesn’t.
The poll and upper neck are constantly working through contact, flexion, balance and stabilization. After training, those tissues can remain tight — making the period immediately after work an important recovery window.

poll tension after work
Often Unseen
A horse can look fine while still carrying poll and upper-neck tension after the ride is over.
Recovery Window
Red + near-infrared light supports relaxation and post-work recovery where horses commonly hold tension.
Poll + Upper-Neck Tension
Contact, flexion, training and repetitive movement can leave the poll and upper neck feeling tight after work.
Difficulty Softening
Tension around the poll may show up as bracing, resistance to flexion or a horse that takes longer to settle into consistent contact.
Everyday Stress Adds Up
Riding isn’t the only source. Trailering, stall time, tack and repetitive routines can all contribute to tension through the head and neck.

Targeted Support Where Horses Hold Tension.
Support the area doing more work than you realize.
The poll and upper neck play a constant role in flexion, balance, contact and stabilization. Training, trailering and repetitive work can leave this area feeling tight — which is why targeted recovery matters.
✓ Supports relaxation through the poll and upper neck
✓ Helps promote healthy circulation to hardworking tissue
✓ Ideal before or after training as part of a recovery routine
Support healthy blood flow where it matters.
Red + near-infrared light are used in photobiomodulation to support normal cellular activity and local circulation — giving hardworking tissue additional support before and after exercise.
✓ Supports healthy local circulation
✓ Targets the poll and upper-neck area
✓ 660nm red + 850nm near-infrared light
The ride ends. Recovery starts.
Red and near-infrared light provide targeted support after work, when your horse’s poll and upper neck have just spent an entire session stabilizing, flexing and responding to contact.
✓ Supports post-exercise recovery
✓ Helps horses settle into their cool-down routine
✓ Cordless and easy to use while grooming or untacking
Start with a softer, more relaxed horse.
Use VitaWell before you ride to give the poll and upper neck targeted red + near-infrared light while your horse is standing quietly in the stall or cross-ties. It turns the time before tacking up into a simple relaxation routine.
✓ Supports a softer, more relaxed poll before work
✓ Helps ease everyday muscular tightness before tack goes on
✓ Easy to use while grooming, braiding or getting ready to ride
✓ Creates a consistent calming pre-ride routine
Key Benefits
- Improves user experience
- Saves time and effort
- Provides excellent value
Your Horse's Red Light Journey
Consistency is key. Here's what red light therapy does.
Day 1
START WITH RELAXATION
Use VitaWell before or after work while your horse is standing quietly. Let your horse accept the sensation while you groom, tack up, or cool down.
Day 10
BUILD THE ROUTINE
Your horse begins to release tension quicker, more licks, more yawns. They stand quieter and are more relaxed in the cross ties.
Day 30
RECOVERY BECOMES A HABIT
Now your horse is excited to work under saddle because they no longer expect pain, they know the therapy preps them before and after the ride. Regular use gives you a simple way to support the poll and upper neck before tension becomes something you only notice once it affects the ride.

Yes, the adjustable straps are designed to accommodate a range of horses while keeping the light positioned over the poll and upper neck.

“The fact that this is cordless is honestly one of my favorite parts. I show almost every weekend and I didn’t want another therapy device that needed an outlet, extension cord or huge bag of equipment. I throw VitaWell in my tack trunk and use it at the stall, beside the trailer or while I’m getting ready to ride. My horse has never felt more relaxed under saddle and even on the ground.”
Nicole R.
“I almost didn’t order because my mare is the type that has to investigate and remove EVERYTHING. Surprisingly, she couldn’t care less about VitaWell. I put it on while she’s in the cross ties and within a few minutes her eyes get heavy and her head starts dropping. Probably the calmest part of our grooming routine.”
Kristal S.
“I bought this for my horse and now I’m the one stealing it for my nerve-damaged leg 😂 I fell off recently and red light is the only things that feels SOOO good on it. Sorry buddy… you can have it back when I’m done.”
Sophia M.
My horse is the worst cribber and always puts his tongue over the bit. The first time I used this he didn't look frantic to crib on something, and he was so relaxed for our ride as well and actually accepted the contact. He had a very old jaw injury and I think this is helping soothe any remaining pain from that too!!!"
Claire D.
“I bought it for the cribbing, but the first thing I noticed was how much less grabby and restless he was in the stall. He usually latches onto anything he can reach after dinner, but now he’ll actually stand there relaxed with his head low. The cribbing has dropped off massively, but honestly the calmer behavior is what sold me.”
Danielle M.
“I love that it has the two different light modes, and the pulse setting is such a nice touch. I can switch it depending on what I’m using it for, and my horse gets so relaxed when it’s pulsing. It feels way more thought-out than just a basic red light pad.”
