Just have to do your research. My vet has the theraplate and the trainer I work under has the equivibe. Equivibe goes vertical whereas theraplate goes side to side. You do not walk side to side, you walk up and down. I haven't used theraplate but I have used the equivibe and have seen it ease colic, warm up show horses and treat injuries. Our horses fall asleep on it and pass a lot of gas on it-haven't had a horse not enjoy it.

Thank you! I'v e done alot of research. My vet also has the theraplate but I also know someone with a rehabiliation center and they swear by the equivibe. I appreciate your response.

Equivibe all the way!!!
I purchased and equivibe last year, the equivibe yo me is better, & less aggressive vibration. I had people that had been on a theraplate get on the equivibe and they liked it better, they described it as “less aggressive” vibration.
When my horses got on a therplate we had to really rattle them to get it high, my equivibe on level 3 i can feel it all the way through his withers and he loves it.
