The triangular shape to the upper eyelid is a classic sign of discomfort in the horse. By the end of the session, this little lady was much more comfortable in her back, and let us know by the relaxed look in her eye and tons of licking and chewing!

Bobby has come such a long way! At this time last year, he was a sore, unhappy boy. I wasn’t sure we would see the day when he would be accepting of deep tissue manipulation, but here we are 🥰

Stress takes on many forms in the body: emotional, physiological, mechanical.

Not all stress is bad, but like everything else in life, too much of something can create problems. A horse that is “stressed” will begin to show signs of dis-ease, many of which manifest into outward symptoms: lameness, behavioural changes, performance issues. Some of the techniques I use in my sessions are to facilitate the activation of the parasympathetic nervous system- the network of nerves responsible for relaxing the body after periods of stress.

The basis of osteopathy is to look at the WHOLE picture - can you think of some things that are stressors for our equine friends?
