🌿 TranquiON: the science of natural relaxation for the horse

🧠 From research to calm: TranquiON is born

In the world of modern equestrianism, the mental well-being of the horse has become as central as the physical.
From this awareness comes TranquiON, the first natural olfactory relaxant for horses developed in Italy by ON-H, based on scientific research and applied neuroscience.

Not just a simple fragrance, but a formula designed to act through the horse’s sense of smell, stimulating the brain areas related to emotions and stress response.
A synergy of 6 pure essential oils, enclosed in an elegant 50 ml roll-on, easy to use, safe, and 100% natural.

🔬 The science behind TranquiON

Every horse, like every human being, has a limbic system, the part of the brain that regulates emotions, memory, and stress.
This is where the “magic” of scientific aromatherapy happens: aromatic molecules inhaled through the nostrils send direct impulses to the limbic system, modulating the body’s neurophysiological response.

Studies such as those by:

• Herz, R.S. (Int. J. Neuroscience, 2009) demonstrated that the sense of smell measurably influences behavior and mood.

• Hothersall et al. (University of Lincoln, 2010) observed in horses a reduction in heart rate and stress behaviors following exposure to aromatic oils such as lavender.

• Joanneum Research (2003) documented that Swiss pine reduces up to 3,500 heartbeats per day, promoting relaxation and quality of rest.

In other words, the horse’s sense of smell does not just “sense” a scent: it receives a biochemical message that activates calm and reduces tension.

🌸 The power of the blend: when oils work in synergy

Unlike a single oil, the TranquiON blend was designed to create a natural synergy: each component acts on a specific aspect, but together they amplify the overall effect.

• Lavender → Relaxes the nervous system, lowers heart rate, and promotes immediate calm.

• Sweet orange → Stimulates serotonin, the hormone of well-being.

• Swiss pine (Pinus cembra) → Regulates heart rate and promotes deep and steady relaxation.

• Vetiver → Provides stability and grounding, useful for anxious or easily distracted horses.

• Patchouli → Rebalances states of mental and physical agitation.

• Frankincense → Brings centering and serenity, completing the emotional rebalancing phase.

This combination is not random: the oils are diluted in jojoba and fractionated coconut oil, which ensure stability, durability, and safety of use.
The result is a gradual and harmonious release: the top notes act immediately, while the heart and base notes maintain the effect over time.

🐴 Why use it

Aromatherapy is no longer a “holistic” concept, but a discipline supported by scientific data.
TranquiON becomes a practical and safe tool for:

• Anxious horses during transport or competitions

• Young horses or those sensitive to noises and external stimuli

• Horses in recovery or under environmental stress

• Training or grooming situations where calm and concentration are needed

👉 Just apply the roll-on around the nostrils (without direct contact) and let the aroma work.
The effect starts after about 3–5 minutes, reaching maximum relaxation within 10–15 minutes.

🌿 Safe, natural, made in Italy

Every component of TranquiON is 100% natural, non-doping, without alcohol or synthetic preservatives, and produced in Italy with very high standards.
It is designed to be safe for daily use, even on sport and competition horses.

It does not interfere with performance but improves overall well-being and the quality of the horse–rider relationship.

💬 What makes it unique

✔️ Based on real neuroscientific studies
✔️ Balanced formula with 6 pure essential oils
