FAQ's

What are horse calmers and how do they work?

Horse calmers are supplements designed to help reduce anxiety, stress, excitability and reactivity.

They typically contain ingredients that support the nervous system, such as:

  • Valerian root - a natural calming ingredient used to support relaxation
  • Magnesium - helps regulate nerve function and reduce tension
  • B-vitamins - support the nervous system and energy balance
  • L-tryptophan - an amino acid linked to mood regulation
  • Herbal extracts - such as chamomile or passionflower, used for their calming properties.

These ingredients work together to help horses stay calm and focused without causing drowsiness.

Do horse calmers help with separation anxiety?
Yes, certain horse calmers can help manage separation anxiety by supporting relaxation and reducing stress-related behaviours. They are often used alongside consistent routines and training to improve your horse’s overall confidence.
Do horse calmers affect performance?
Most calmers are designed to reduce anxiety without impacting performance or energy levels. They help horses remain relaxed while still able to perform normally.
