Using applied to the lumbar region of this horse to help support the work of my manual therapy over the next few days.
Interestingly this is a horse that I treat on a regular basis and who is a real foodie! Usually he continues to munch hay whilst he has his therapy session, today he was eating away as usual, until I applied the tape, when he stepped back away from his hay (I was treating him untied) and just stood and rested, processing the feeling of the tape gently lifting his hair, speaking to his nervous system. And there he stood whilst I replaced his rugs and wrote up his treatment notes.
With horses (any animals) there is no placebo effect, and as I also know this horse very well, it demonstrated to me the powerful effect this gentle therapy can have 😌
