Curry on a Stik

Curry on a Stik

is a patented, professional-grade grooming and massage tool built around a comfort-first idea: keep the proven benefits of a rubber curry comb, but put them on an ergonomically designed handle so you can groom your horse without cramping, gripping, or contorting your hand. One side carries coarse, cone-shaped rubber teeth for the body; the other carries flexible fine teeth for the head, face, and legs. It is double-sided, made for horses, dogs, cats, and other animals, and it is priced at $29.95 with a 30-day money-back guarantee. You can buy it directly at curryonastik.com or from retailers such as Dover Saddlery, Chewy, and Valley Vet Supply.

What Is Curry on a Stik?

Curry on a Stik is a therapeutic grooming and massage brush developed over two years by husband-and-wife team Jeff and Sharon. The head is a single-piece molded core with a specially manufactured TPE rubber overlay and no rivets or screws to work loose. Because both grooming surfaces live on one tool, it replaces the pair of curry combs many riders carry. It is double-sided by design, fits left or right hands, and is small enough to slide into a back pocket between horses.

The brush has been veterinarian tested and recommended by Dr. John Langlois, DVM, MS, is used at the Chi Institute in Reddick, Florida, and earned a Family Choice Award in 2023.

Why Use a Long-Handled Curry?

Traditional curry combs ask your hand and wrist to do all the work, which is hard on aging joints, arthritic fingers, and nerve-affected hands. The ergonomic handle on Curry on a Stik fits naturally into your palm and adds balance weight, so you can apply effective pressure without the finger, wrist, and elbow strain of a palm-held comb. Riders tell the company it lets them brush longer and more comfortably than they could before.

It is gentle, too. Unlike metal or wire brushes that can rip out hair and irritate skin, the soft rubber overlay lets you curry effectively without bearing down hard. The brush de-sheds dead hair, releases the natural oils in the coat for shine, and massages skin, muscle, and fascia using acupressure-style stimulation that boosts circulation, which is why so many horses lean into a session.

How Does It Work and Where Do I Buy?

Using it is simple. Reach for the coarse side on the large muscles of the body to lift dirt, loose hair, and dander, then flip to the softer fine side for the head, face, and legs where the skin is thin and sensitive. The same brush works dry for everyday grooming, with water and shampoo at bath time, and as a stand-alone massage tool after a ride. When it gets dirty, you simply rinse or wash it clean.

Curry on a Stik sells for $29.95, with a Starter Grooming Kit and Corakko therapeutic shampoo also offered.
