Horses and other long-necked animals show reduced blood pressure and heart rate when their heads are lowered due to baroreceptor activity in their carotid sinus near their carotid artery.

This is an adaptive effect that evolved to inhibit undesirable effects on the cell membranes of the brain when the head is lower than the heart.

Some trainers use head lowering to calm horses whose anxiety is triggered by external factors (e.g., leaves rustling).

High head-carriage is associated with hyper-reactive states, while inconsistent head-carriage impedes the development of consistent reactions to acceleration, deceleration, and turn signals.

Lowering the horse’s head is useful as a shaping component when training locomotory responses (go, stop, and turn) and to enhance the horse's overall responsiveness and consistency.

Studies have shown that horses pre-conditioned in this manner exhibit fewer head-tossing incidents and respond better during training, indicating a reduction in stress and improved learning.
