Episode 44: Guest: Kissing Spines

Kissing spine, also known as Overriding Dorsal Spinous Processes is one of the most discussed and often feared diagnoses related to equine back pain. What does it really mean for the horse? In this discussion we unpack the condition from a functional and whole-horse perspective.

We explore:
• The role of posture in both in prevention and rehabilitation
• Why spinal mobility and core strength are important for recovery
• Common signs and behaviours linked to DSP impingement
• Rehabilitation strategies independent or in conjunction with surgery
• Why early assessment of function can be your best prevention strategy
