Physiotherapy for horses

Physiotherapy for horses is a great passion of mine, where I can support you and your horse in various ways.

It is very important to me to not only eliminate the symptoms and causes, but also to stabilize my treatments success through targeted training or training recommendation, so that the rider and horse can share many happy times together.

Physiotherapy is a form of specific training and external applications of remedies, which restores, improves and maintains the movement and functionality of the body.

Physiotherapy includes:

• Massage
• Stretches (active and passive)
• Trigger Therapy (Jack Meagher)
• Lymph Therapy
• Acupressure
• Active gymnastic (longe, long rein, therapeutic training, riding lessons)

It is a complementary option to conventional medicine.

So it is also important that horse therapists always work together with the respective trainer, veterinarian, saddler and fairer.

How to identify discomfort and pain of your horse?

• tact problems - lameness
• performance losses
• ride-abilitys
• sensitivities when grooming or saddling
• shaking of muscle parts
• saddling problems
• does not swing in the back
• shaking head while riding
• carries the head or tail slanting
• grinding of teeth
• does not lift the hooves and often stumbles
• problems with bending
• muscle fatigue
• traumatic effects / i.e. fractures, ect.
• neurological dysfunctions

This needs to be treated, not only symptomatically, but also by reason of their cause in order to increase the well-being and performance of the horse.

Horse therapy is also used to provide for:

• Improvement of mobility
• Reducing the risk of injury
• Prevention of muscle pain
• Trains muscle and rehabilitates deformities and deficiencies

The treatment procedere always includes a horse analysis! This is the only way to find out the causes of the problems and initiate the right therapy.
