EQUINE MASSAGE SERVICES
Today, we are continuously asking more from our equine athletes. Proper muscle conditioning is essential to a healthy musculoskeletal system. Massage helps to reduce the possibilities of strains, sprins, and muscle function, red blood cell generation, and removal of metabolic waste.
"Musculoskeletal problems are the most common cause of poor performance"
- Tufts University of Veterinary Medicine
Equine massage promotes increased equine performance and can help reduce recovery time after stress or injury. Massage counteracts muscle soreness, fluid buildup in the lower leg, and stress.
WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF MASSAGE?
* Improves flexibility and range of motion
* Maximizes performance
* Maintainsmuscle health by releasing circulation
* Lengthens muscle fibers
* Suplies essential nutrients to muscles and lymphatic flow
* Reduces chronic strain patterns
* Can help reduce healing time for injuries
HOW DO I KNOW IF MY HORSE NEEDS A MASSAGE?
Since horses can't talk they must communicate through behavior and performance. Often, this communication is a subtle sign of soreness, such as: acting cinchy, tossing the head, and refusing to perform up to previous levels. These can be interpreted as "bad" behaviors, when in fact the horse is merely trying to communicate that something is wrong.
TO DETERMINE IF YOUR HORSE CAN BENEFIT FROM MASSAGE, LOOK FOR SUBTLE SIGHNS OF SORENESS LIKE:
* Girthing Problems
* Sore back or cold back
* Swishing of the Tail
* Refusing or resisting leads
* Hind Leg scuffing
* Change in attitude
* Improper tracking (short stride or out of balance)
