Your Work Horse


Whether your beloved hard working dedicated equine athlete is chasing cows, chasing barrels, running patterns, jumping fences, taking you down the trail or packing supplies, they have muscles, tendons & ligaments just like we do.


Just about everyone has over done it a time or two & has experienced tight muscles in either your lower back, shoulders, legs or arms.  Your equine athlete is no different.  They work day after day for you until……..until that dreaded swollen knee, swollen hock, front shoulder limp or worse bucking or crow hopping show up from sore sensitive back muscles.


If you have ever suffered any type of injury your recovery has most likely involved follow-up physical therapy, which usually includes stretching and/or massage.  Most of us wait until something happens before researching remedies or thinking about preventative maintenance.


Massage & Stretching= Preventative Maintenance

 

Equine Therapies Available
