The Body's Connection to the Hoof

One of the biggest lessons I’ve learned in hoof rehab is that the hooves never exist in isolation. We can trim, balance, and protect the feet all we want, but if the horse’s body isn’t healthy, the feet will always tell us.

Sometimes, improving the hooves truly does improve the whole horse. Better movement leads to stronger muscles, improved circulation, and reduced strain. But the opposite is also true: if we don’t address systemic health, with considering things like nutrition, metabolic balance, inflammation, or even pain elsewhere in the body, the feet will never fully heal, no matter how skilled the trim.

The truth is simple: fix the body, and the feet will typically follow. Ignore the body, and the feet won’t hold.

Hoof care is never just about the trim. It’s about seeing the whole horse.

A huge shout out and thank you to SURE FOOT Equine for sponsoring our SOLD OUT Humble Hoof Podiatry Clinic happening at the end of October! Sure Foot Balance pads help us so much here at our rehab facility to get horses to feel better in their body and improve their hoof health, and it fits in perfectly with our podiatry clinic topics of how the body affects the feet and vice versa. While our in-person attendance is sold out, we do have video recording options available to still see the lectures and sessions by our amazing clinicians.
