Take note… an Equine Massage is not a substitute for professional veterinary care. It can help your horse with soft tissue issues. Take a look at some of the things massage has to offer.
Improve performance and ‘ride-ability’ by alleviating pain associated with sore, tired, stiff and over used muscles. This includes lactic acid build up, pulled muscles and tendonitis.
Improve performance by increase range of motion and providing pain free muscle contraction.
Improve performance by reducing recovery time between workouts and decrease risk of serious soft tissue injury.
Does your horse have any of the following symptoms? If you answer yes… then your horse may need a massage. Your horse may benefit from massage if he is showing signs such as:
- Stumbling or shortened stride
- Bucking during trot – canter transitions
- Not bending in one direction (or hollowing in one direction)
- Difficulty in picking up a lead or keeping a lead
- Head tossing
- Tail swishing or nipping while being saddled up or mounting
