Day 30 of Sozo Equine, LLC taping challenge!
😡Heat Cycles (mares)😡

Some mares have difficult and painful heat cycles. Making them quite unpleasant to be around. (I mean I would be too! 🤷‍♀️)

🧐 But did you know these mares often suffer pain in their lower lumbar spine? This is because the ovaries in the uterus are located just under the lumbar spine! (Blue tape)

💖 Sometimes they may need just a *bit* more support or simply have sore muscles (it’s strenuous work to be a mare in heat!) In this case we can apply a tape from the withers to the stifle in order to cover the back muscles as well as the huge biceps femoris muscle in the hind end. (Pink tape)

So before you say “she’s just a grouchy mare”, consider she might be in some pain 😉💕

Day 29 of Sozo Equine, LLC taping challenge!
💖 Navicular Disease💖
Alllll the pretty girls walk like this 🎵💁‍♀️💕

I LOVE expanding my knowledge! Never stop learning 😉 This weekend I purchased a new class from Sozo all about Navicular Syndrome!

Today I tried out the new application on my personal mare, Freedom, who was diagnosed with Navicualr at the young age of 7 😥

Common signs of Navicular:
🎀 Pointing a toe at rest
🎀 Development of short-strided gait
🎀 Difficulty when turning
🎀 Increased stumbling
🎀 Rigidity in the neck and poll
🎀 Gait changes when trotting circles
🎀 Becoming uncooperative with the farrier

Unfortunately, exactly what causes navicular syndrome is uncertain. However horses with small hooves tend to be most likely to experience navicular syndrome.

Day 28 of Sozo Equine, LLC taping challenge!

After a little tussle in the turn out, Bugg did not come out on top (dang mares)! He took some pretty nasty kicks to his bum muscles.

During a massage I found an area (black tape) that appeared to have some strained and possibly torn muscle fibers.
🖤 I applied a compression/star tape as it will concentrate and amplify the tapes power right in the center (where the expected tear is located).

I also found there to be a good bit of swelling on his whole hind end (to be expected).
💙 The blue octopus tape- here I used the te****le method to assist the lymphatic system in draining that fluid aka swelling.

Lasts I chose to give him some back support as I am sure he will be compensating here due to his hind end being a bit ouchie.

💕 Rest up and feel better soon Bugg, no more picking fights with the strong girls! 💕

⚠️ Back Pain ⚠️

Unfortunately back pain is very common in the equine performance world!

Some things that can cause back pain:
💥 Kissing Spine
💥 Poor saddle fit
💥 Rider position
💥 Arthritis
💥 Muscle strain
💥 Lameness
💥 Trauma/ Injury
💥 Conformation
💥 Poor/ incorrect shoeing angle
💥 Training method

〰 Scar Taping 〰

☑️ New scars
☑️ Old and mature scars

In 2021, Sarah O'Reilly published a paper regarding kinesiology taping during wound remodeling.
It was found that when placed on scars kinesiology tape can improve…
🖤 Height
🖤 Pliability
🖤 Thickness
🖤 Color
🖤 Itch

This was one application I was a bit skeptical on; however, I have done this one on myself and was ASTONISHED with the results!!! 🤩 Now Doc gets to enjoy the benefits for himself on an old scar!

Day 25 of Sozo Equine, LLC taping challenge!
🦋Tendon Swelling🦋

This sweet sorrel mare is a lesson horse who teaches kids to jump!

After a jumping lesson one day she was found to be a bit lame and appeared to have swelling along her tendons 😢

💙 In order to reduce swelling I utilized a lymphatic tape along the SDFT (Superficial Dogitiwl Flexor Tendon) to communicate with the body to disperse the swelling.
💙 I also applied a fetlock support tape to aid in movement and protect this vital joint from overstraining.
💙 And of course you can never go wrong helping increase circulation to the hoof!

💜Glutes and Hamstrings💜

Age: 5
Job: Cattle Sorting
Competitive? Yes!

Bugg is very good at his job though due to the physical demand of his sport he is in a rigorous conditioning plan. His owner does a great job making sure he is legged up for the work that is required of him!

During a routine body work session, I chose to help support some very important muscles that Bugg uses quite a bit- glutes and hamstrings!

To prevent injury to these muscles…
💕 Keep your horse in a regular exercise regime
💕 Ensure proper warm up and cool down
💕 Only compete at the level their conditioning allows
💕 Stretches (once muscles are warm)
💕 Regular therapeutic maintenance such as red light, sports massage PEMF, KT, etc

❄️Equine Cryotherapy❄️ Equine Cryotherapy is astonishingly effective within a short timeframe. 🤔How does it work? The diffuser streams high-pressure, carbon dioxide (CO2) gas at 70 bars pressure and -110°F to the affected site on the horse's body. This creates a ✨thermal shock✨ that immediately activates the sensory neuroreceptors under the skin! 🧊Why Cryotherapy? The horse's central nervous system responds with a 🔨corrective reflex🔨, which brings a significant reduction in INFLAMMATION, SWELLING and PAIN, with further muscular relaxation, within just 60 seconds! • • • Let’s get your equine partner feeling their best! 📲 Call/text 602-582-0876 💬 Private message this page

🙊 ULCERS 🙊 Let’s talk everyone’s least favorite topic! ❓What are they? Gastric, or stomach, ulcers are sores that form on the stomach lining. ❓How common are they? Common in horses, with the prevalence estimated between 50 and 90% ❓Who can get them? They can affect any horse at any age but occur most frequently in horses that perform athletic activities such as racing, endurance, and showing ❓Who can diagnose them? Vets! A diagnosis of any sort is only to be given by a licensed DVM. • • • Although a therapist cannot diagnose ulcers, there are acupressure points that can be used to give an indication that they may be present. If there is reason to believe that ulcers may be an issue, the therapist may suggest a vet visit to scope and treat. When you book a therapy session with Natural Essentials Horsemanship, rest assured your horse will be fully evaluated.

Tension in the poll can cause: 👎🏼 Shortened strides 👎🏼 Reactivity in the back 👎🏼 Difficulty to bend or flex 👎🏼 Resistance to the bit 👎🏼 Lack of Impulsion ✨It is also the area that holds emotional tension- if they are worried or stressed about anything (pain in other areas, training, etc)✨ Check out this video from beginning to end to see how much range of motion is improved in ONE session! ☎️Call/Text Kelci Martinez 602-582-0876 to book your next appointment!
