This one-day intensive course is for horse owners who would like to understand more about the musculoskeletal system - to learn basic massage & stretching techniques to improve the overall flexibility and maintenance of the horse. We will also discuss how weakness and soreness can impact the horse's performance.
The course will cover basic Equine Anatomy & Physiology with palpation, Massage, range of motion & stretching techniques to help you maintain your horse’s physical wellbeing.
There will be hands-on practise throughout the day. Please Note: You do not need to bring your own horse.
It would be beneficial for students to familiarise with basic Equine Anatomy (Muscular & Skeletal) so that you have an understanding of the areas that you’re going to be working throughout the day. If you would like help or advice on this please do not hesitate to contact me.
