Sport Horse Rehabilitation
Expert collaboration with your veterinarian to bring your horse back to sport
Rehabbing a horse back to full sport can be an overwhelming journey. I bring a decade of higher education and practical experience to work with your team to help reduce scar tissue, minimize compensatory issues, prevent re-injury, and help your horse return to sport.
Diagnoses/conditions that can benefit from professional rehab:
Soft tissue injuries (suspensory ligament, muscle tears, tendon injuries)
Back or neck pain, kissing spines, SI pain
Joint pain or arthritis, fractures
Stifle dysfunction, hock pain, caudal heel pain (navicular)
Pre/Post op (OCD removal, kissing spines, orthopedic surgery, colic surgey)
Frequently Asked Questions
