Welcome to Equine Cure
We welcome you to Equine Cure to setup a consultation for your first massage appointment for your horse. We focus on the natural and holistic approach to working with horse through the use of massage muscle therapy.
Massage Therapy
Massage therapy is not a substitute for veterinary medicine. It is most effective when used as a preventative measure. By breaking up tight knots of adhering fibers, massage can help prevent a muscle pull or tear from occurring during exercise.
At times our horses will refuse certain tasks that are asked of them, whether it’s because they are having a bad day or they may have some discomfort in achieving that effort. Horses are athletes and should be treated in that respect regardless of their discipline.
Benefits
Any horse can benefit from massage treatment, from a treasured family pony to a top quality performance horse. Massage therapy will not only enhance your horse’s performance and physical well-being, but will also aid in his emotional and behavioral stability.
Myofascial therapy is a form of soft tissue therapy used to treat the fascial layers, bands, ligaments and tendons. This is accomplished by stretching the tissue for 1-3 min relaxing contracted muscles, increasing circulation, increasing lymphatic drainage, and stimulating the stretch reflex of muscles and overlying fascia.
