In this fan favourite episode we look at why is back pain a common recurring issue in horses.
This question should be front and center in your mind as a horse owner or bodywork practitioner.
So here‘s the reality.
If your horse suffers from a period of back pain, it’s common for it to re-occur.
Seriously. Frustrating…. Right?!
There are a variety of reasons why.
Join us for this episode where we discuss 4 reasons for recurring back pain and a simple “back hack” to help your horse.
The reasons for recurring back pain include:
If you can rule out pathology that requires veterinary attention and chiropractic intervention, you likely will be left with a horse that is “stuck” in a pattern of dysfunction.
Kinesiology tape can help at the onset of discomfort and dysfunction, before pathology results. Many horses just need that little extra help to resume normal functioning and optimal comfort levels. Tape is a great solution in these cases.
Lumbar decompression tapings are SIMPLE to do. The benefits available are fast acting, and (in my experience) long term results are available; horses begin to move comfortably and correctly again. Lumbar discomfort is very common in horses, so this taping is very useful to know!
Yup… we’ve made a free resource to teach you how to do this for your horse! We’ve linked it below.
