KISSING SPINES SURGERY AT OAKHILL
We have performed four of these procedures with the horses all conscious at our clinic over the past two weeks!!

There are multiple techniques that can be used to widen the spaces between the affected spines and remove clinical symptoms such as bucking and bolting.

In these X-rays performed of this horse below, we have used a dorsal wedge ostectomy technique which removes a small triangle of bone from the area of impingement, so that the bone surfaces never touch again in the horse’s life!

Horses are usually back to work in around 4-6 months following the procedure depending upon the severity.

Really interestingly, two points of note that we would like to share:
✔️ Many of these horses with significant kissing spines do not like their saddles being applied, so if your horse hides at the back of the stable when the saddle comes out, that can be a sign that there is an issue.
✔️ Following surgery we get frequent reports that the horses are much happier in their stables, more settled and happy to have rugs and tack put on and removed. If you suspect that your horse is not happy in their stable, please do call us to discuss this as it is so important that we all listen to our horses carefully, and check for signs that something may not be quite right.

Love this trend! Well & truly a one women band!

NV Physiotherapy helping with my lower back pain!

The way I run doesn’t help my back, I tend to throw my weight to my right and it leaves me with so much tightness.
I speak to my clients a lot about this, you get your horses treated but leave yourself! And sometimes it is us that adds to the problem because of our aches and pains we ride differently.
If we can’t perform to our best, then we can’t expect them to compensate for us!

My brother is class, he leaves you with exercises going forward and they really work (if you do them🤣)

Definitely recommend getting yourself treated- it’s not enjoyable… but it really does work 🙏🏽

HAPPY INTERNATIONAL WOMENS DAY to all my amazing clients!!

I am privileged to hear your stories, see all your successes and hard work with your horses- all while leading and bossing life outside of horses (which is INCREDIBLY hard to juggle!!)

Keep bossing it 🫶🏽💪🏽

The two leading ladies in my life 🩵

In the early 2010s, shortly after launching Flair air flocking, we received a few reports of horses developing soft, non-painful swellings along the spine.

Although rare and seen with both air and traditional saddles, we investigated fully to ensure horse welfare remained our priority.

Our original paper (LINK IN COMMENTS) explains our findings and offers guidance for anyone encountering similar swellings.
