This is after one nerve release session.

If your horse has tension in their hind end or are dropping their back and not engaging their abs, it may be a good time for some bodywork and postural work.

The other day I was working on a dog. When I did some fascial work on her neck she was pretty sensitive around her lower cervical spine. I moved on from the area to not cause too much discomfort and work around the area. Since sometimes you can relieve issues by working elsewhere in the body. Everything is connected and where the issue manifests isn’t always the root cause.

I finished her session and went back in to check on her neck and by the end much of the discomfort went away. It just goes to show, sometimes it is better to work on connections to the sensitive area instead of possibly causing more discomfort to an already possibly painful area.

Sometimes a hay belly really isn’t just a weight problem. Sometimes it can be due to posture, compressing the spine and lack of engagement of the abs.

This before and after is after ONE nerve release session, of just about a 2 hour difference. You can see just how much better engaged he is especially in his abs as well as just a little bit softer overall in his body.

If your horse is struggling with a hay belly and what may be a compressed spine, it may be time for some bodywork

Problems with holding up hooves and balance are often issues due to pain and proprioception. It can be due to compensatory patterns, nerve pain or numbness, arthritic bone changes and more. If you relax the compensatory muscles, improve space around nerves and help them find a better posture they often have an easier time finding balance and lifting their legs.

These results are after only one Lazaris Nerve Release session.

If your horse has trouble holding up their feet, they may benefit from some bodywork.

One of the most common restrictions I find in horses are restrictions in the jaw and hyoid. It is common because of how we utilize bits in our horses mouth. Any downward pressure on the bars and tongue will cause them to pull back their tongue to avoid the pressure and create restriction that affects not only the tongue but their whole body all the way to the hind end due to fascial connections. There are ways to avoid this by riding off the corners of mouth with upward pressure.

If you think your horse has tension in their jaw or tongue they could probably use some bodywork.

Muddy loves his sessions!

PEMF is great to help with arthritis in dogs. It helps reduce inflammation so they can feel better.

A client had asked me if nerve release could help a horse with possible strictures. For those that don’t know, strictures is narrowing of the esophagus, in this case due to recurrent choke.

She wanted to know if I could help and honestly, I was not sure. The horse was having more frequent choke episodes and we were hoping I could help get some relief. Now with true strictures, bodywork isn’t expected to help and the usual intervention is inserting a balloon to widen the esophagus. But since the strictures was not 100% confirmed with scope yet, I felt it was worth trying. I was wondering if part of the issue was due to significant neck tension creating restriction and possibly effecting the nerves that help with swallowing, especially since this mare had a very tight neck.

To everyone’s surprise, her horse was actually much better after! It has been a couple months since her first session and she hasn’t had anymore choke episodes. Not only that, they have been able to remove her grazing muzzle to help manage the issue, without a problem! Her owner also mentioned that her horse was much more relaxed after the session, previously always on high alert and now able to relax!

It is my belief that this horse’s strictures was due more to muscle tension and nerve restriction than actual narrowing of the esophagus. And just goes to show that sometimes it’s worth it to give our horses a chance, even when the outcome you want isn’t the most likely.

One of our most recent renters enjoying the Magnawave machine! The whole family got to enjoy some sessions while having it.

Rentals are great for injuries, certain illness and helping with recovery. Some issues I recommend a rental for are ligament injuries, post surgery for recovery, epm in horses, founder/laminitis and IVDD in dogs. It gives you the ability for more frequent sessions for a lower cost.

I went to a client yesterday with the complaint that their horse’s legs shake when they eat and they wanted to show me. I fully expected it to be a carpal issue, where they shake because they don’t lock, to my surprise it was not and the shake seemed to be coming from higher up, something I’ve never seen before.

From the placement of the shake I assumed it must be related to the nerves around the scapula and elbow. So I did some nerve release from the head down through his elbow and asked if we could feed him again just to see the difference, and to everyone’s surprise, no wobble! This before and after is after just half of one nerve release session! Not only did the shake stop but he was calmer eating. Previously he moved so much and threw his food around that half ended up on the ground and he looked quite angry. After, he ate calmly only with little weight shifts and all the food stayed in his bowl, something none of us were expecting.

Just goes to show that if you pay attention horses give us many clues into how they are feeling. If your horse is an angry or anxious eater it may be worth it to try some bodywork 💕

Spring is finally here, and if you’re like me with no indoor, it’s finally time to get our horses back to work.

For me, since my horse hasn’t been able to do much exercise with a lot of movement through the winter we are starting with some gentle hand walking exercises focused on biomechanics and proprioception while allowing plenty of processing when needed.

Today after this work, she had a much looser, relaxed and more forward walk!

Sometimes being fussy with the bridle is really just an issue due to pain and connection not bad behavior.

This mare was having a hard time being bridled, so while I was there I did some cranial releases focusing around her poll and hyoid. She stood and melted into the releases with no halter to hold her there, with full liberty to just walk away from me. After, she immediately put the bridle on without a fuss!

To help continue the relaxation into ridden work, we did some work on bit releases and the fussiness under saddle even went away too!

Sometimes bad behavior isn’t a training issue, it can be tension and a connection issue, if you can work on both the issue may go away without the search for a new “special” bit they like better.
