Depends how tight the matting is. Photo would be helpful. Draftriders suggestion of just chopping the hair right back may well be the only solution if the matting is severe.
If it's not impossible matting though, I would DROWN it in a good conditioner. So wet it, the load the conditioner in, rub it in as much as you possibly can. Leave it to sit in her tail for a day, then rinse out, and repeat for as long as it takes. Loading it with products such as show sheen is ok but if it is genuine matting taking up all of the tail. it will cost you a fortune and take a lot of time to get it out using specialised products.
The drowning it in conditioner will help to break down the bulk of the matting, and THEN you can start with the show sheen etc. baby oil is also a good one to use in place of the mega expensive products.
