Twitch

A twitch is a formed instrument of application of a cord or a leather thin strap in loop fixed at the end of a stick, with which one tightens the Nez équidé S to immobilize them. If it is conceived and used well well, it makes it possible to release on the level of the brain of the Endorphine S and the Enképhaline S which have a property Analgésique.

Use of the twitch

It is possible to make a twitch with a thick and solid stick, which one bores at an end of a hole and where one passes a loop of cord of about thirty centimetres length. The twitch is slipped around the upper lip of the animal, then one passes the hand through the loop and one seizes the upper lip of the animal. It is then necessary to make slip the cord above the hand and twist the stick to tighten the cord around the upper lip.

Recommendations

One should not place the twitch on the ear of the animal because this use is very painful and can damage the ear and break its cartilage. The twitch should be used only necessary minimal time. It is obligatorily always to be held by one of the welfare men in order to prevent that this one does not strike somebody if the horse defends itself with the free twitch.
