A strong topline is rightfully the focus of almost every rider. However, no training program can change anything unless we address a proper saddle fit in the first place.

👉🏼Pressure from an ill-fitting saddle increases pressure over the spine and spinal musculature, which has been shown to reduce activation of the epaxial muscles, limit spinal range of motion, and contribute to pain-related muscle inhibition rather than muscle development (Clayton et al., 2010; Dyson et al., 2015).

🐎If the spine cannot move freely and comfortably, topline muscles cannot strengthen effectively, no matter how correct the training.

When was your saddle last checked? Make sure to involve your local saddle fitter in your horses care. You can ask your vet physio during a routine appointment to check the of your tack. 🤲🏼

Pain may lead a dog to lick, chew or scratch a particular area repeatedly, often where there is discomfort. Here's WHY:

💥 This behaviour stems from the pain gate theory: a non-painful stimulus (such as licking) can partially block or reduce the transmission of pain signals to the brain, making the area feel less painful for a short time (Melzack and Wall, 1965; Wall, 2000). It is the same principle as the habit of rubbing a bumped elbow to make it seem to hurt less.

🐕 If you are a dog owner who does not want to miss any signs of pain and wants to learn how to spot common postural changes, simply comment SIGNS - I will send you a link to my e-book on 8 Signs of Pain in Dogs.

I have recently come across clients with a fear of movement. “If they move less, they will do less damage.”

While the movement is always dependent on diagnosis and the stage of healing, in most cases, the opposite is true. Too much rest can lead to delayed and ineffective recovery. Either use it, or lose it.

Why is movement so important?

💪🏼Stimulates synovial fluid production → better joint lubrication and nutrition
💪🏼Maintains joint capsule health → prevents stiffness and restriction
💪🏼Supports ligament and tendon strength and alignment
💪🏼Keeps fascia adaptable and elastic
💪🏼Maintains muscle strength, endurance and coordination
💪🏼Improves circulation → better oxygen and nutrient delivery
💪🏼Supports proprioception and confidence

🗝 The key is the right type of movement, at the right time, in the right amount.
Rehabilitation is not about avoiding movement. It is about using movement wisely.

If your animal is recovering from an injury or has a diagnosis, do not miss your chance. Get in touch today 💌

Are you slowly killing your dog? - Resharing my infamously famous post!

➡️Similarly to the human population, there is a rise in obesity among dogs (Loftus and Wakshlag, 2014), showing that up to 65% of dogs are over their ideal weight (Meena et al., 2022). Premature deaths have been reported at about 2 years earlier on average with only about 10% overweight (Montoya et al., 2023). Excessive weight contributes to early joint degeneration, the development of other medical conditions, and significantly worsens arthritis, which also decreases the quality of your dog's life!

The truth behind 'But food makes my dog so happy.':
➡️Most dogs would eat anything at any time. In fact, they would probably eat your neighbour's cat's p**p when you are not looking and enjoy it equally as your expensive steak from last night, so don't get fooled by the puppy eyes at your dinner table! Instead, reward your dog with your attention, games and cuddles or opt for low-calorie treats.

What to do:
✅Find out your dog's ideal weight.
✅Consult your veterinarian or nutritionist.
✅Use playtime as a reward or opt for suitable low-calorie treats.
✅Book a physio consultation so you can enjoy your favourite walks together.
