Why equine massage therapy?
If your horse is experiencing behavioral issues or you notice a decrease in performance due to tight muscles or muscle spasms, equine massage therapy can help create a well balanced horse mentally, emotionally, and physically. Equine massage therapy can help alleviate muscle fatigue and spasms, in return, reducing your horses risk of pulling or tearing muscles. It also helps improve circulation and reduces inflammation in joints and muscles while allowing them to move more freely. Equine massage therapy releases endorphins into the body which are a natural pain reducer.
Some of the reasons your horse may need a massage:
*Head tossing or shaking *Tripping, stumbling, or toe dragging *Refusal to pick up correct lead *Resistance to work or decline in performance *Unexplained lameness *Excessive yawning, chewing, or teeth grinding *Difficulty with lateral movements *Refusing/hesitating going in the gate *Girthing or cold back problems *Resistance to bridling or saddling *Lack of forward impulsion *Difficulty with square halts or backing *Bucking, rearing, or tail wringing *Hoof problems
