Does your horse shake their heads or refuse to turn one direction. This could be why.

Did you know that the first and second cervical in a horses neck are called the Atlas and Axis? These hollow vertebrae allow enough space for the movement in the neck and the spinal nerves to pass through them.

The atlas is smaller than the axis and has wings on either side that can be felt by placing hands on either side of the neck. The atlas connects to the skull at the occiput to allow a horse to nod its head.

Now imagine these vertebrae misaligned and impinging on the nerves within. How do you think this affects a horses ability to function with a massive "headache"?

Classic signs a horse is misaligned at the atlas or axis are head shaking while riding, head shy, carrying head to one side or the other, refusing to turn, or refusing a bit.

So when you hear someone say my horse is out in the poll, which can't be moved, what they really mean is my horse's atlas or axis is out. Knowledge for the day.

If you'd like Sierra to come evaluate your horses message us and we'll get you on the schedule.

Have a fantastic day!

One more reason collection and a good chiropractor are so important

https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=645137734289111&id=100063786693578&sfnsn=mo&mibextid=RUbZ1f

Did you know that a horse that hasn't been how to properly support and carry the weight of a rider will instinctually hollow their back away from the weight of the rider? Many riding horses spend their entire careers going around with hollow backs, even upper level competition horses.

Carrying weight with a hollow back is, at best, uncomfortable for the horse, and in many cases is actually quite painful. Many horses tolerate this discomfort because they don't know any alternative. Other horses develop behavioral problems and become labeled as bad horses.

For a horse to remain healthy and comfortable in his work he must be taught how to support the weight of a rider with first a neutral back and then later on with a lifted back. This is a process that takes time, as you can't rush muscle development.

I've found that the best way to teach a horse to lift his back is on the ground first, through classical in hand work. Without the extra weight of the rider, it is easier for the horse to learn how to lift his back and it is easier for him to develop the strength that he needs in order to maintain a lifted back for an extended amount of time.

Once the horse has and understanding of this healthier posture and has developed some strength, it will be much easier for him to accomplish the same thing with a rider on his back.

The horse will then feel more comfortable and have an easier time performing his job. He will be less prone to injuries and behavioral problems and he will be able to continue doing his job for much longer than if he never learned to move in a healthy way.

As stewards of our horses, we owe it to them to give them the best lives possible. That includes taking the time to teach them how to move in a way that is healthy and comfortable for them.

Want to learn more about the horse's back and how you can teach him a healthy posture? We invite you to join our Healthy Movement through In Hand Work course, available in our Virtual Classroom. You'll learn how you can help your horse to move in a healthier way through the use of In Hand Work.

This work is beneficial for horses of all ages, breeds, and disciplines and no previous experience is necessary.

Horses have been my whole life I was practically born on a horse. All through high-school I was a 3 sport athlete and I managed to keep my horses ridden and competing in peewee rodeos then barrel racing.

Being a human athlete I understand how important it is to be in shape to compete. I understand if you are in pain you can't perform at your best.

My goals were to pursue ways to help my Equine partners after school. After a bad slip during a barrel run, finding someone to adjust my horse was more difficult than I thought. I sought out schools to attend. I found an amazing school in Canada for Equine Sports Therapy. Two months of intense studies followed by a month of hands-on training earned me my certification for sports therapy.

After practicing on my own horses and noticing a huge improvement in their performance, I offered my services to the public. I have pursued horses my whole life. In addition to my biology degree, I have years of continuing education as well as experience breeding riding and training horses. I am also a graduate of the Oregon Farrier school.

15 years and thousands of horses later, I still love helping new clients and current ones keep their horses performing.

I keep horses balanced from head to tail. The old saying no foot, no horse is so true!
