Little bit of monday motivation 💪

Sucess doesnt come from anything but consistency, hard work and determination.

If you want it bad enough and want to change you need to consistently put the work in 💪

It doesn't need to be loud, it doesnt need to cost a fortune, you just need to show up (consistently) 😂😂

100% rely on my wonderful clients to take videos and photos because Im terrible at it 😂

In all honesty once I start working with your horse my focus is generally on them, how the feeling, how they are responding, if I need to make any adjustments and what their bodys are telling me.

There's alot going on inside my head when Im treating, thinking about the now and what we can do to help improve the future.
Its not just about what's right in front on me, its about what you the owner can do to help, because at the end of the day I spend and hour or so every 6-12 weeks with your horse you spend hours every day with them. Your input will have a massive effect on their body, their nervous system and their progression.

I am the catalyst you are the ones to sustain and build on it 😉

Ps thank you again to for getting some beautiful videos of me and her lovely boy Jester 🫶

Now for once Im not referring to horses 🙈 Im talking about us human the owners!!

This is something I find hard to navigate, more often than not when someone books their initial appointment with me its because theres a problem. It may be a big one or something small but annoying.

We go through all the questions, do the assessment, talk about findings and then we talk about what needs to change.
It can be simple exercises to help target certain areas, or it can be bigger changes such as diet, exercise and training, tack and training aids. A

And the hardest thing is the resistance that meets us, I get all the reasons they cant do something but never the reasons why they can or need to!
This resistance directly effects your horse, their well being, their comfort, their performance.

Those clients I see that work their plans do the exercises no matter how small, change their training, up date their tack, monitor diet simply do whatever their horses needs them to do are the ones that see the differences. And yes its hard to change habbits of a lifetime, its but the rewards are infinite.

So the next time your bodyworker, vet, farrier, dentist, nutritionist and trainer advise some changes rather than meeting them with resistance think about how those changes could benefit your horse and yourself.

Nutrition & bodywork

Breeze and I had a visit this week from Equinutrition and wow was its not only enlightening but it opened my eyes even more to how important the right nutrition for our horses is.
Those that know me and work with me know I look at the whole horse and nutritional support is one of the main things I will talk to owners about as it has a massive effect on our horses and its important to get it right.
Making sure they have the right fuel for the age, breed, workload, and medical history is so important. I struggle with Breezes weight Im fortunate to be at a yard with amazing turnout and grazing but as such it tends to mean Breeze is a tad on the porky side, she also has some underlying health issues one of which being arthritis so I really can't afford for her to carrying an extra weight, add to this she is getting older her nutritional requirements have changed so her feed needs to reflect this.
On top the above she has just had a period of lameness which we are currently rehabbing so she is also in a healing period, its important to make sure shes getting everything to support this while also watching those calories. Its no mean feet but with a nutritionist on-board its certainly made it alot easier and all I have to do is stick to the plan.

Now I do feel the nutrition alongside our horses weight is often overlooked, if we are not feeding the right things our horses will struggle couple this with either excessive weight then we are put alot more stress on our horses body which will in turn reflect in poor performance, compensation, tight tense restricted muscles and joints and so much more. This can also be said for under weight horses, where not enough fuel is given it adds to the strain on the rest of the horses body and again can lead to compensation throughout the musculoskeletal system. Making sure our horses have the right nutrition at the appropriate levels to reflect age, weight, height, breed, workload should be at the forefront of management.

Despite being in the equine industry for over 25 years and doing numerous qualifacations many of which have a nutritional element, its still something I can find difficult to navigate with so many feeds and products on the market. For me using an indepent qualified nutritionist means I have someone who knows what they are talking about, who will crunch the numbers and make sure each component of Breezes diet from hard feed and supplements to grazing and forage is worked out perfectly for her but can also be adjusted if anything changes.

It takes a whole team to keep our horses healthy and Im so very grateful we live in a world full of these amazing professionals that have our horses welfare and happiness at the forefront of there minds.

This week has been mainly about the rider 👌 from dressage riders chasing those extra marks to riders coming back from injury working on balance and strength. Its certainly been and interesting week 👌

Horse and rider are so # closely linked that an inblance in one can effect the other, by working on both parts of the team we can help iron out any kinks creating stronger more balanced riders that are able to help and support our horses better.

Working on both parts of the team, enables us to build a stronger more balance partnership 💪

Polework is so much more than just lifting their legs 😉

and I say this tongue in cheek, because more often than not I will advise the use of poles and normally recommend doing them in hand. Why? well its simple I want you to watch how your horse is moving, I want your horse to be able to move and engage with out the weight of a rider and the restriction of tack. Because if they cant do it without anyone on board then they sure arent doing it correctly with the added weight of a rider!

So poles, its about propreception, body awareness even when using static or slow progressive pole exercises will help improve this. So much is going on in your horses neuromuscular system with even the simpliest of exercises.
With the use of poles receptors throughout their body are stimulated, from joints, tendons, ligaments, and muscles, this in turn improves awarenes and coordination.
With improved awareness and coordination comes more accuracy, improved posture and suppleness.

It not just about the act of making it over the pole ( lifting their legs) its how they move over the pole, its about the control behind the movement, how they load each limb and how we can correct and aid them in this.

Its not about doing more its about doing the right execises and exercuting them well so that they target the right areas and have the right response.

So they next time your bodyworker gives you some in hand pole exercises to do, dont just walk round and round over the poles, watch, assess, adjust make each movement count. Remember its quality over quantity 😎

I may not have been working this weekend but I have been learning.

A spot of CPD with Wolds Equine Sports Massage Approved Courses and a new skills added with Equine Myofascial decompression cupping.

CPD is super important as a therapist, not only does it helps us to learn new skills but also develop and hone existing skills.
All the best therapist know you never know it all, and every day is a learning day. Not every horse presents the same and works for one doesnt work for another. They are individual and as such your skills need to be able to adapt to this. Regular CPD is just one way we can do this.
Im also super excited about added a new skill, as a Human therapist I absolutely love cupping, and the results I have had with clients have been fabulous so to be able to offer this for horse too is great.

Another fabulous Rider Alignment clinic at Horseworld Equestrian Centre

5 riders, all at different levels, all with different goals, some working post rider injury some working with horses post injury.
But all wanting to become more balanced effective riders.

Most of these sessions work on simple exercises that you can take away and practise at home. It looks super easy but breaking old habbits, building new movement patterns, working on breathing and stability are not easy.

The first step to change is resistance 😉

My next clinic here is already fully booked, however from June Im looking to open up more spaces. If your wanting to book on for this DM me as spaces go quickly and dont come up often!

Little bit of tuesday inspo!

I am forever an optomist, any maybe because Ive never had straight forward horses I tend to think outside the box.

It can often be met with resistance, as with any change all I ask is you try because quite often you will be suprised by the results.

We need to stop looking at why it won't work and look at why it will no 2 horses are the same so no single method will work for all of them. Thinking outside the box can often bring some astounding changes 😘

Rehabilitation its a word we use a lot and its not always in conjunction with what we perceive as an injury. But what exactly does it mean?

Rehabilitation is the process of restoring and individual to their best possible health and function. It involves theraputic interventions to improve independence and increase physical and cognitive function.

This can be an injury such a sprained or ruptured tendon or kissing spine, arthritic changes, ulcers, laminitis and the list goes on. We should look at it at any point where our horses (and our own) bodies have been in dysfunction.

Now I hate to say this but most injurys are preventable 😬 quite often the lead up to an injury or period of lameness is marked by compensation and weakness in one area causing the horse to over compensate putting the body into dysfunction. When the injury finally happens thats the body saying it cannot do it any more, the straw that broke the camels back as it is.

Now post injury if we go back to how everything was before then the cycle will start again but this time there is already a weakness. The rehabilitation process gives us the time to re think, adjust and put it place changes that will benefit our horse, helping to make them stronger 💪.

If we always do what we have always done, then you will always get what you have always got!

Rehab doesnt have to be stressful it can be a wonderful time to deepern your connection with your horse and discover new ways of training.
