Every horse owner should have basic body check-up skills. he same as we know how to deal with basic cuts, abrasions and wounds, I feel if all horse owners/riders could do basic body check-ups, for the following reasons:1) to know your horses current limitations, stuck areas, maybe even over reactive areas, only then can your new learnt skills help you re access your horse after an incident e.g. slip in the field
2) to have key area checks when rehabilitating your horse i.e. thoracic sling dysfunction, pelvic/sacrum motion
3) Be able to check your horse after a fall, a lot of work, a change in disposition, attitude or performance.
Too many times horses new behaviours are blamed on human reasons and not taken into context that the prey animal is being asked to be an athlete. Their communication needs to be heard, having these skills empowers owners to be more in charge of their horses and have a deeper understanding of good v compromised areas in the body.
Would you like to be able to check your horses body, including jaw, hyoid, sternum, shoulders ribs and more, and find what areas may have restricted movement? Affecting comfort and performance.
Would you like to be able to check fundamental areas, such as thoracic sling development and the pelvic function in your ridden horse?
The musculoskeletal first aid, ideal for routine check ups, for understanding your horses body more and as guidance after any fall or incident such as in the field.
