From January I will be offering kinesiology taping for dogs/horses/humans.

Taping greatly helps with the healing process of soft tissue injuries.

Sometimes a horse just has muscles that are too deep or tight to get into, so I have to resort to the gun. Horses muscles are so big that no human can manually get to the depth that many need to release.

This incredible 9 year old showjumping mare, absolutely loved her gun treatment. The look on her face was priceless.

This horse is a show jumper. His owner has reported him not wanting to change readily behind and she’s been struggling to get him to really use himself into the corners on the flat.

He presented with incredibly tight gluteal, tensa fascia latea and biceps muscles specifically on the left. After some manual manipulation, I popped the electro therapy on for 15 mins. The releases he gave due to the deep stimulus was incredible.

This is not an injury he sustained, but is purely work related and using one side of his body more than the other, which is as common in horses as it is humans.

Home visits with Natasha for her knee. Tash tore her minuscus and ACL a few months ago at work. Today she had electrotherapy to help improve and stimulate the affected nerves, tissues and muscles around her knee in order to promote healing and increased blood flow and physical function.

We haven’t forgotten about Chablis, our other sponsored horse. Chablis has been having a winter break (complete with treatments which she now thinks is a complete spa day) as her mom decided it would be a great idea to have surgery on her knee. Chablis is going to start coming back into work slowly from next week as her mom is down to one crutch and is able to lunge her.

This lovely girl has also made the transition to barefoot over the winter after spending most of her 18 years in shoes. She is coping incredibly well and it has not affected her body in any way (as it often does when horses transition).

Alexandra says about herself and Stevie:

Horses have always been a passion of mine for many years. I am 16 years old and have been riding for over 8 years.
I like competing in show Jumping, working Hunter and working equitation.

Stevie is a 12 year old Irish Sport Horse X who is relatively new to the world of competing. We’re looking forward to a year of individual and team showjumping, working hunter / equitation and hopefully some grass roots evening.

After reviewing all the applications for this year’s sponsored horse and rider and seeing the absolute determination in one rider in particular, we have chosen.

This particular young lady and her horse meet all of our values and show such an aptitude for jumping and appreciation for each other.

It is my absolute pleasure to announce that Alexandra Woodward and Stevie will be flying the Essex Equitherapy banner high for 2024.

Welcome to the team!
