πŸ‘€ Check This Out!!! πŸ‘€ Look at the difference before & after treatment on this boy! πŸ’ͺ He has been working really hard lately for his young rider & his muscles felt super toned & supple except for some tightness in his latissimus dorsi & oblique muscles, which had led to the horse inverting his back muscles πŸ˜– This made it look like he had a β€œdip” from wasted muscles (atrophy)…however you can see as soon as the fascia & muscle tension was released via core lifts & hands-on massage the horse was able to relax and his muscles return immediately to a relaxed state! πŸ§˜β€β™‚οΈ How amazing! 🀩

ℂ𝕒𝕀𝕖 π•Šπ•₯𝕦𝕕π•ͺ π•Œπ•‘π••π•’π•₯𝕖 πŸ“‹ I posted last year about a mare with a historic injury that had caused skeletal imbalance in her pelvic & hip structures 🦴 She has continued her specialist farriery with Jon Tyldesley Farrier and her physio with myself, but has also started her ridden rehab & schooling with Simply HS in 2025 too! πŸ‡
Today her schooling was reported as not feeling uneven or one-sided πŸ₯³ and then her appointment with me today followed suit - level pelvic & hip markers πŸ₯³ with more balanced muscle tone too πŸ’ͺ Yes, she is still adapting to the work, her new balance from the feet up & how her muscles have compensated over the years and she still has further improvements to make BUT today was a real stand-out for this mare! πŸ₯³ This case really shows how dedication from an owner, a good team working together and time can truly make a difference πŸ’—

Part of treating horses is building a trust with them & I pride myself on the care I give to every client πŸ’— The feeling is definitely mutual with Ciara & she shares her massage every time! 🫢 Am I allowed to have favourites? πŸ‘€πŸ˜…
