All originated from the very popular stretching for horses I have always questioned. With the practice of these stretching we focus on muscles. But are they the only structures involved? What about nerves, nervous system and the pain parameter?
So, I reflected a lot, thought about my osteopathic techniques I use on daily basis and started a lot of research in both human and equine literature. Then, the inspiration came and I started my content.
Over the course of those two dates I am taking you through all the parameters we need to take into consideration when we address pain from a neurologic perspective. What are the red flags? What triggers and soothes the pain? We will spend time talking about anatomy of the nervous system, its dysfunctions and obviously how to treat these.
What is the medullar traction force? What does it look like and how to address this dysfunction?
Stretching’s are widely recommended during rehab plans, but are they truly beneficial?
My role is to teach you the techniques best suited to the practical cases you will encounter in order to best support them in their rehabilitation phase whether there was a surgery or not by proposing a treatment plan that is adapted and respectful of the horse’s physical and emotional integrity.
