People always ask me what age is a good age to start body work on a horse? Foals can develop misalignment and compensations from birth.
Early intervention promotes musculoskeletal balance and allows you to address - structural issues and posture which can prevent future gait issues and compensation patterns that can put additional strain on joints and ligaments.
Removes discomfort from the body that can initiate an untrusting and defensive behaviour.
Promotes blood flow and helps release tension which aids in faster recovery.
Boosts proprioception so the foal has more body awareness leading to better balance and coordination.
Regular touch and handling builds trust between foal and human for future training.

I had so much fun working with this little fella Bruno. A 2 month old foal that developed an Infection in his RH hoof. His frog ended up falling off. He was really quite lame for a few weeks and was developing compensatory patterns as a result. Gentle massage helps areas with secondary soreness. Not to help matters mum was attacking him wouldn’t allow him to eat so poor little Bruno was also missing out on much needed nutrition.

What is usually seen by the eye as the problem is usually the compensation for the real issue. I was called out to this horse as she was stepping short in her OS hind.

We always look at our horses side on. Do your horse a favour and take a birds eye view. It just may explain a few things 🤷‍♀️

Monkey 🐵 see monkey do!!! When you turn around after grooming your horse to see your youngest daughter performing some of your own methods to make her pony feel more comfortable 😍. Equine massage is important for improving a horse’s physical health, mental well-being, and athletic performance. It is used as both a preventative measure and a complementary therapy for existing issues not to mention its also a great way to bond with your horse.

A recently retired thoroughbred. He had 3 starts then a spell. During his comeback he’d jack up and pull out left. He was retired on that note! On another note before his session he weight beared left, his ribcage dropped away to the right and he was contracted in his flanks and rotated in his pelvis laterally right and cranially on his right. Today he walked off with a swagger 🥰

Have you ever wondered why your horse may feel amazing one day and then off the next? We all know horses can have silly paddock accidents that can leave them sore but silly stumbles under saddle can be just as bad. This fella stumbled on a trail ride and landed on his head compressing his neck. His owner did the smart thing and had him checked before riding again. Before and after - one session.
