💪🏼 Horses are athletes too 💪🏼
Warming up and cooling down your horse is crucial for several reasons:
1. **Injury Prevention:** A proper warm-up increases blood flow to the horse’s muscles, making them more elastic and less prone to injury during exercise. It also allows the horse’s body to gradually adapt to increased stress, reducing the risk of strain or sprain.
2. **Optimal Performance:** Warming up prepares the horse mentally and physically for the tasks ahead. It allows the horse’s body to reach its ideal operating temperature and ensures better performance.
3. **Muscle Relaxation:** Cooling down after exercise helps the horse’s muscles to relax and recover. It reduces the risk of muscle soreness and stiffness, promoting overall comfort and well-being.
4. **Heart Rate Regulation:** Both warm-up and cool-down periods assist in regulating the horse’s heart rate. A gradual increase during the warm-up and a gradual decrease during the cool-down are gentler on the horse’s cardiovascular system.
5. **Mental Relaxation:** Cooling down can also be a calming routine, helping the horse transition from a state of exercise to a state of rest. This mental relaxation is as important as the physical aspect.
Proper warm ups & cool downs are essential for the horse’s physical and mental health, performance, and injury prevention. They ensure a safer, more comfortable, and successful experience for both the horse and the rider.

✋🏼This sound was made for Equine Bodyworkers✋🏼
Not everything going on with your horse can be seen. Beneath the surface, Equine Bodyworkers are feeling for the 4 T’s:
1. **Tone:** The firmness or softness of the muscle to identify tension, relaxation, or any abnormalities in muscle tightness.
2. **Texture:** Irregularities, such as knots, trigger points, scar tissue, or adhesions. Variations in muscle texture can indicate areas of concern.
3. **Temperature:** Elevated warmth in a specific region may point to localized inflammation or recent trauma.
4. **Tenderness:** Tenderness or discomfort in a particular area when palpated can signal pain or sensitivity, guiding the bodyworker to focus on those areas.
Equine Bodyworkers are trained to develop a feel for what is normal & abnormal in your horse’s muscles, even when it can’t be seen.
**Equine Bodyworkers are unable to diagnose and will refer you to a vet when necessary**

Living by these words changed my life…
It’s time to normalize chasing the things that excite you, not the things that have you just going through the motions
Your passion is your purpose, remember that 💛

The runway is yours Miss Bird🦄👑
Did you know that horses don’t have collarbones?😯
Unlike humans, horses lack a collarbone (clavicle), which allows for greater freedom of movement in their front legs.
The scapula is connected by a complex system of muscles and ligaments.
These structures work together to provide stability and support to the scapula, enabling the horse to move its front legs with agility and strength.
