Groot is back, back, back again!
Groot started with a brief lunge to warm up—responsive to cues but full of energy, showing some head tossing and tail flicking. Under saddle, trotting felt good, but he struggled with the left lead, cross-firing behind and breaking gait.
During the ride, we found a large knot on his right shoulder, which likely contributed to discomfort and behavior. After bodywork, his neck movement improved and he lowered his head more comfortably.
Next, he had his first PEMF session (10 min total). He tolerated it extremely well, relaxed, gave multiple releases, and almost fell asleep. Muscle activity was noted in neck, shoulders, lower ribs, hips, and stifles.
The following day, Groot showed huge improvement: groundwork was sharp, round pen work smooth, stops beautiful, pivots improving, head carried low, and lope balanced. He handled distractions calmly, and his attitude was noticeably better. PEMF clearly helped him move, think, and feel like the “old Groot” again.
Behavior often signals physical discomfort—and this boy just proved it. 🐴✨
