What a perfect day to be cosied up inside, joggers on, writing some new workshop modules. And thank goodness for Peggy, she’s never wet, or covered in mud, never throws a shoe and always stands perfectly still whilst I tape!

Hoping wherever you are reading this you didn’t get too wet today!

Learning opportunity ahead - Acupressure & Meridians

Meridians are pathways that run throughout the horses body. In traditional Chinese medicine, they’re thought of as routes where energy flows, linking different parts of the body together.

In horses, these meridians run just under the skin and connect muscles, joints, organs, and nerves. Acupressure points sit along these meridians, and when gently stimulated they can help the body communicate better with itself and bring things back into balance.

So if a meridian isn’t flowing well, a horse might show it through stiffness, tension, or changes in behaviour. Working along the meridian can help encourage relaxation, ease tight muscles and support wellbeing.

I’ve always wanted to learn more about this fascinating subject so I’m going to be joining Donna Barker Equine Therapy & Rehabilitation for one of her amazing CPD workshops on 15th June as part of 2 day CPD with me running kinesiology taping on the second day 16th June. The days are available to book separately but we are hoping most people will book the 2 days so that we can combine these 2 amazing modalities together. ( Safe Equestrian North Lincs DN15)

Interested - let me know and I can give you the details.
