Last week was busy at Mid-Atlantic Rehab for Equines was! Sterling recieved several Massage/PEMF sessions with our Sport Innovations 3in1 blanket ❤️☺️ Anthony ,Whynn, Jax, and Chester all had a few sessions in our aqua-therapy! Anthony for conditioning and strengthing his pole. Jax and Chester both had conditioning session. Ms. Whynn is on her long trip back from EPM, so she had a very short and slow session for strengthing and coordinating her cadence! Then on Friday Bear had a field injury, Gaskin was swollen. One session with the Sport Innovation leg wrap relieved almost all swelling! More treatments upcoming today! Stop by for a tour. 240-440-9627

Love all our modalities! Anthony, "Apple Bottom Anthony" enjoying his Sport Innovations 3 in1 blanket! Was a little stiff in his morning training ride with Katie . So he recieved a combo 15 minute massage/ 15 min PEMF treatment! He was very upset when it was over. Lol

“The main benefit of exercise in water, whether that’s walking on a water treadmill or swimming in a pool or open water, is the ability to exercise the horse with reduced loading or concussive forces,” says Persephone McCrae, PhD, who studied water treadmill use in horses for her doctoral degree. “Musculoskeletal injuries are typically associated with repetitive overloading of the structures within the limb,” and buoyancy limits these forces.
And, she adds, because water is denser than air, horses must work harder at slower speeds during aquatic exercise, leading to improved cardiorespiratory fitness and muscle development.
The reduction in weight-bearing also promotes range of motion, or flexibility, through the limbs and back, says McCrae, now the lead scientist for research and development in the Animal Science Division at Myant Inc., a textile computing company in Ontario, Canada. “This is important in terms of reducing the risk of future injury, as well as for promoting rehabilitation through improved biomechanics, even while the horse may not be fully weight-bearing on ground.”
