🎉🎉First Horse Show outing of 2024 was a Success! 🎉🎉

Joseph earned himself reserve champion in our Low Hunter division and had dramatic improvements from last year especially on the flat. I am so beyond proud of our golden boy🤩💜

Singing In The Rain AKA Puddles gained some life experience traveling to a new place and was even able to make his lead line debut with Tatiana (Renee Stobie)😍 we’ve still got much to learn, but he’s got great potential. Stay tuned for the adventures of Puddles the lesson pony, I’m sure there’s more to come😊

Days like today help me remember the importance of friendships and especially our barn family, teamwork makes the dream work, love you guys❤️

15 Interesting Facts About Your Horse’s Muscles

1. Up to 70% of muscle fibers do not span the complete distance between insertion and origin; however, as the endomysium (the thin layer of connective tissue or fascia that surrounds each individual muscle fiber within a muscle) of adjacent fibers are structurally connected, they can still transmit force.

2. During an isometric contraction, muscle fibers temporarily stiffen without undergoing a significant change in length, resulting in the generation of strength without movement. Isometric contractions are essential for maintaining posture and creating stability.

3. Muscles develop a lasting molecular “memory” of past resistance exercises that helps them bounce back from long periods of inactivity.

Yes!!! 😍

1. Don't annoy the horse.
2. Work with the horse in front of you and not the one you worked with last time.
3. With a horse, like in dating... consent is required.
4. When something does not work... stop doing it.
5. If the horse does not like what you’re doing, there is a reason.
6. Horses do not wear wrist watches and as a result they take the time it takes.
7. Intelligent action always brings intelligent reactions. If not, it's you and not the horse.
8. The more you know the gentler you are.
9. If it makes the horse feel better, he will let you do it.
10. Don't annoy the horse.

It always surprises me how many people understand that their horse’s body needs help maintaining its optimal function, but don’t consider how beneficial soft tissue work is to help their horse through the issues they’re having, major or minor.

Changing the body is never a “one and done” from either a soft tissue body worker, or chiropractor, or even veterinary perspective, especially if there is long term dysfunction in the horse’s body.

Restoration and maintenance of good body function and alignment absolutely requires fascial and proprioceptive input that can be provided by your equine massage and myofascial release therapist.

Have you been adjusted to have that spot twinge again an hour later? Has your horse ever been adjusted, feel great for a day or two and go right back to how he was before? That’s the muscles and fascia pulling the body back into that painful, dysfunctional pattern.

Learn how to choose which is best for your horse, how to combine therapies and why your horse needs this care- https://koperequine.com/bodywork-can-provide-a-multitude-of-benefits-to-horses/

Are you using your off season to prehab your horse?

You could come back from the winter more conditioned and prepared.

“Prehab” is any program of training designed to *prevent* sports injury.

👏🏻 Preparing your horse for the season will set them up for injury prevention and improved performance.

Research in athletes in the past 10 years have shown kinesiology taping can effectively reduce muscle spasms, rebuild muscle strength of the injured extremity, improve static and dynamic balance and ease pain, due to its ability to improve proprioception of joints and regulate muscle tone.

These effects reduce muscle imbalance and joint instability, thus increasing treatment efficacy and shortening the physical load limitation.

Kinesiology taping significantly reduces the risk of overuse syndromes and injuries.

Kinesiology tape is a non invasive, highly effective addition to any prehab program.

🔍 The tape magnifies the benefits of other modalities, increases the effectiveness of manual therapies, and maximizes exercise programs.
