I can’t believe I didn’t share with you guys our trip to the Josey ranch. We’ve been quite a bit and I highly recommend them. We love to go to the 7 day schools to get our younger horses started with the seasoning process. I will be sharing their first run and last run later today but here is some fun we had with the Rope & Run!#twistedbperformancetherapyrehabandfitness #twistedbperformancetherapy #joseyranch #marthajosey #macipaige08
Lots of shoulder love given to this pretty mare. She is on stall rest for a short bit. I noticed tightness in her shoulders so this shoulder application with K Tape was applied. She LOVED the relief! Full body PEMF was given after. 😍#twistedbperformancetherapy #twistedbperformancetherapyrehabandfitness
EPM!
If your horse does not receive the correct exercises after an EPM diagnosis, it can lead to injury later down the road.
We specialize in EPM rehab using multiple therapy modalities along with assessing diet for the best outcome for you and your horse. Let us help you get back in the competition pen!

Exercise Routine
Our exercise routine for some days. I always keep it mixed up to make sure we are working different parts of the body.
That’s so important to keep the body balanced and in top shape!
Keep in mind that our exercises are not limited to riding. We do a lot of in hand work, too😉

We have an attempted escape artist that’s in for our fitness therapy program.😅 #twistedbperformancetherapyrehabandfitness #twistedbperformancetherapy
I talk a lot about stall rest and how it can affect your horse. Muscle atrophy, ulcers, boredom, swelling in the distal limbs, back soreness and more. Here we do stall rest differently. ***have your veterinarian and rehab therapist on the same page.
What’s the difference in rehab here at Twisted B Performance Therapy and stall or pasture rest?
Here you get daily rehab whether it’s corrective exercises to build muscle in all the right spots, PEMF, k tape to relieve tension and support joints, Theraplate to strengthen, increase blood flow, faster recovery, body work to realign the body and relieve tension and so much more!
Stall rest creates ulcers, boredom, and muscle atrohy begins in 3-4 days! Pasture turn out creates compensation patterns and the body begins to overload the joints from fascial restrictions. Overloaded joints create arthritis.
Let us take the burden of rehabbing your athlete. All of our modalities we use work synergistically for better recovery so you can come back stronger, better and faster!

I love being able to offer my knowledge and skills to help horse owners & their horses.
I offer something different and out of the norm. Something that will educate you. Something that will help you and not hinder you. Something that will push you, encourage you, challenge you to know better so you can do better.
Our rehab facility is not only for your horse, but for you to learn through the process while your horse is here. Updates weekly with photos and videos to keep track of your horse’s progress.
Learning how and why we are rehabbing/conditioning your horse is so important. This gives you knowledge and power when your horse goes back home.

Coming back after an injury can be a daunting task. Let us help you get there!
Full body PEMF by Respond Systems is one of the therapies we offer to all horses that come here. We are an all inclusive rehab barn so your horse gets everything we offer!
PEMF aids in resetting the nervous system, speeds up healing, reduces pain and swelling, relieves pain and more! #twistedbperformancetherapyequinerehabfacilty #twistedbperformancetherapy #rehabbarn #rehabfacility #pemf #pemftreatment
What are your tips and tricks for livestock?

I hear it all the time. “I was told stall rest”
Every horse has it’s unique circumstances. Every horse is so individualized because of injury, the deficits they have before the injury and the deficits they develop with the injury.
You can still do “stall rest” here at Twisted B Performance Therapy but get the therapy your horse needs.
We are all inclusive! We evaluate your horse and tailor a program without you having to choose what modality your horse needs. If your horse needs everything we offer, then that’s what your horse gets!
BODY WORK
I have 4 different certifications in body work which has helped me develop an eye for compensation patterns, feel for tightness and fascial restrictions as well as uneven cranial bones. I use all 4 modalities, mixed and matched according to what your horse tells me they need. Some form of body work or energy work is done before we do anything else. Whether it’s a full body session or energy work is dependent upon what your horse is here for and what it can tolerate. We do work up to full body sessions but again it is tailored to what your horse is here for and what it can tolerate. When the body’s fascial restrictions are broken and it is realigned, your horse can begin healing. The body’s natural healing ability is amazing when it’s realigned. Stretching a warm body after corrective exercise or Theraplate allows the muscle to become more supple, flexible & strengthens which results in less injury. We also love to stretch your horse on the Theraplate. This builds more balance and muscle! Some horses cannot stretch on the Theraplate because they are not strong enough . This is something we build up to. Before your horse goes home, we go over stretches so you can continue keeping that suppleness, flexibility and strength.
PEMF
PEMF stands for Pulsed Electromagnetic Field. It sends low level magnetic frequencies into the body . PEMF therapy mimics the Earth’s magnetic frequency (7.8 Hz to be exact) th
I’m really feeling 2024.
2023 was a great year for us with getting our home built, arena and starting the rehab barn.
2024 is going to be even more exciting with rehab horses in the barn now, seasoning Sister, getting Maci Paige a new horse, & Corbitt graduating!
I cannot wait to see all of this unfold with God & Chris by my side!
#twistedbperformancetherapy
Merry Christmas everyone! We pray blessing upon you and your family. #twistedbperformancetherapy
#twistedbperformancetherapy
We check horses before and after their exercise/therapy for soreness to make sure what we are doing is working. The goal is to keep your horse in a parasympathetic state to achieve optimal results 🙌🏻

Kissing Spine rehab post op week 4. No longer tripping or “falling” as much when doing incline hill work.💪🏼 #twistedbperformancetherapy
What a beautiful day to get some work done with an EMP rehab case while my hubs works in the background….on my rehab barn😍
I’m so excited that this is finally happening. It’s been 3 long years without a barn to work out of. We have had everything in our horse trailers which has been like playing musical chairs with all the stuff we have.
Here I am starting out with K Tape applications for core support, proprioception, back, lumbar, pelvis and stifle support. Then ProSix along with cavalettis for more proprioception, building core strength, stifle strength and top line. (This does a whole lot more but to keep it short..) To finish off, we do full body PEMF with Respond Systems and body work.

Apparently there’s nothing better than a body work session after your EPM corrective exercises. If horses could drool 🤤
