💪💪💪 Transformation Tuesday just doesn’t get any better than this 💪💪💪

How did we get from here to there? ➡️➡️ Custom, professional rehabilitation that incorporated targeted strength training and other various physical therapy strategies to improve balance, flexibility and neuromotor control!

All of our rehabilitation programs are prescribed and overseen by board certified (DACVSMR) veterinarians to maximize results and safely mobilize your athlete. We approach equine orthopedic injuries from a high-end physical therapy perspective to consider the athlete from an injury-specific and global perspective. Each road to recovery is different 💪

📢Equine Sports Medicine is honored to announce the official opening of their second rehabilitation center located in Scottsdale, Arizona! Situated in the heart of Scottsdale horse country, board certified (DACVSMR) specialist and PhD recipient Dr. Sherry Johnson serves as the managing veterinarian with over 10 years of clinical experience in the professional rehabilitation of high-end equine athletes.

ESM-Arizona is one of only three board-certified owned and operated professional rehabilitation centers in the country (the only one in the state of Arizona) and is the only program  in the world to offer blood flow restriction training.  Enrollment in this program is much more than stall rest, hand-walking and aquatred, and also features high-end physical therapy for the equine athlete that incorporates custom resistance band training, targeted strength training, balance pad work, core physiotherapeutic exercises, retrograde lymphatic compression sessions and proprioceptive stimulation.

Our Arizona rehabilitation facility features state-of-the-art equipment with recovery programs built custom for each patient based on their diagnosis, co-morbidities and athletic goal and timeline. When prescribing rehabilitation, Dr. Johnson considers not only the horse’s original injury, but any secondary functional weaknesses that may be present as well. Each rehabilitation plan incorporates the pillars of physical therapy, and involves strategies to improve balance, neuromotor control, flexibility, cardiovascular fitness and core stability. Dr. Johnson also builds custom off-season strength training programs for the competing athlete and facilitates post-operative rehab care and recovery.

Through continued collaboration with your veterinarian and specialist oversight, our team is dedicated to getting your athlete back on the road to recovery as quickly as possible. Visit with us today to learn more about how these rehabilitative services may benefit your horse! 📢

📣 New podcast alert 📣 Check out the latest from The Humble Hoof featuring Dr. Sherry Johnson!

https://thehumblehoof.com/2023/12/22/lameness-rehab-more-than-just-handwalking/?fbclid=IwAR2UVZoygDNTghH7YF6iP517QmvxizEXTGyS6ATDj2zFY6mjjN2GzDd32kA

Rehabbing a lame horse isn't for the faint of heart. Any of us that have done it know about the "rehab rollercoaster" - the ups and downs that come along with working through an injury, hoof issues, or even just time off.

So how do we know we are doing right by the horse, and what variables should we consider in these cases?

Dr. Sherry Johnson, board certified in Equine Sports Medicine Rehabilitation, gave some incredible talks at this year's NAEP Saratoga Vet & Farrier Conference, and I chatted with her after about everything from considerations in lameness rehab, how to prevent reinjury, what kind of things we should be focusing on ABOVE the hooves, and more.

You can hear the entire conversation on any podcast app under "The Humble Hoof," or directly at this link: https://thehumblehoof.com/2023/12/22/lameness-rehab-more-than-just-handwalking/
