๐Ÿ’– Beautiful Nelly enjoying work around her cheek and jaw. I think we found the spot ๐Ÿฅฐ

This was a moment caught during Nellyโ€™s second session last week. Her mummy says that Nelly is much happier and more supple since her first treatment ๐Ÿ˜€ I canโ€™t wait to hear how she is after this one!! ๐Ÿ’–๐ŸŽ

Such a special horse ๐Ÿฅฐ

A huge step forward in racehorse aftercare โค๏ธ๐ŸŽ

British racecourses unite to support former racehorses ๐Ÿด

In a historic move, all 59 British racecourses have agreed to significantly increase their contributions to aftercare for former racehorses through RoR. From January 2025, each racecourse will contribute ยฃ270 per fixture โ€“ a 170% increase!

This funding boost will enable RoR to continue its essential work in supporting former racehorses through their transition into new careers, ensuring their ongoing wellbeing after retirement from racing. A huge step forward for Thoroughbred aftercare and the racing communityโ€™s shared responsibility. ๐Ÿ™Œ

Groundbreaking neck surgery for spinal nerve compression. Incredible that the rehab time is just 6 weeks! It truly is amazing what we can do nowadays x

An equine hospital in Hampshire has become the first veterinary practice in the UK to perform ground-breaking neck surgery.

Led by Dr Rachel Tucker, a European specialist in equine surgery, Liphook Equine Hospital near Petersfield has successfully performed the foraminotomy procedure, which addresses spinal nerve compression, on six horses.

The keyhole surgery relieves pressure on nerves that are being pinched by bony enlargements in the lower neck by removing excess bone and soft tissue.

Interesting piece of history! Which one would your horse wear?

Bobโ€™s would be the vow of vengeance against the enemy who eats his haylage ๐Ÿ˜‚

With our founder also being a school teacher, naturally we are excited to occasionally spread a bit of a horsey history lesson or two!

How fascinating is this?

Letโ€™s welcome Ted, isnโ€™t he just lovely? ๐Ÿฅฐ love his little face ๐Ÿ˜

Ted has had his first full treatment with issues ranging from a pinched temporalis to a tight gluteal - ๐Ÿ˜ฃ ouch!

Heโ€™s so much happier! Imagine having a constant headache and sciatica? Poor Ted ๐Ÿซถ

Heโ€™s wanting a bit and bridle fitting too, but, while I recognise this can also help release tension, I am holding off on this for the moment until after treatment number 2๐Ÿด

Ted has a plan! ๐Ÿ™Œ

Next treatment will be in his new home to make sure weโ€™re not dealing with travel and emotional stressors, then his bit and bridle ๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿด

I ๐Ÿ’ฏ want to give Ted the best service I can and this path works for him ๐Ÿ’–

Your horse is going to be totally different, so be more like Ted and start making a plan!

๐Ÿ˜ Hereโ€™s handsome Cameo beautifully modelling the Equilibrium massage pad!

Why do I use this when Iโ€™m a massage therapist?

Wellโ€ฆ the big 3 reasons areโ€ฆ drum roll please ๐Ÿฅ

โ˜๏ธit helps warm the muscles when itโ€™s cold
โœŒ๏ธit loosens the back muscles off so I can get deeper release work done
๐Ÿ–๏ธ it calms and relaxes the horse

๐ŸŽ whatโ€™s not to love?!

Does anyone know of any saddle fitters that cover just north of Lincoln? Got a client who desperately needs one but canโ€™t get anyone out.

Look at this gorgeous stallion, Bryn! โค๏ธ

Bryn is so well behaved and really enjoys his treatments ๐Ÿฅฐ

๐Ÿ’– Yesterday was just magical with him ๐Ÿ’–

We really connected and tuned into each otherโ€™s energy. After this he just stood and completely relaxed all tension. We got some amazing releases including a deep โ€œtwangโ€ in the medial gluteals and the release of his stifle that enabled him to really stride out after his treatment.

Iโ€™m sure youโ€™ll agree, he is just stunning! ๐Ÿ˜

๐Ÿฅฐ๐Ÿด This lovely chap was suffering with a tight serratus ventralis cervicis!

A what??? That muscle in the middle of the lower neck just in front of the shoulder blade where it dips in a bit ๐Ÿ˜€

My Epiony heat pad did a wonderful job of warming the muscle up ready for some deep compression work during this cold snap weโ€™ve been having ๐Ÿ˜๐Ÿ’–๐ŸŽ

Whatโ€™s this muscle do? ๐Ÿค” Moves the scapula, extends and provides lateral flexion to the neck as well as forming part of the thoracic sling. Busy muscle!!

Imagine trying to turn out of a junction in your car but you canโ€™t turn your neck!! ๐Ÿ˜ฃ Frustrating and very sore! Poor lad โค๏ธ All ok now though. Full release achieved!
