What is Equine Sports Massage Therapy?
What is Equine Sports Massage Therapy? As a non-invasive form of preventive care, equine massage therapy supports the overall wellness of performance horses. Through soft tissue techniques, it soothes overworked muscles and helps protect against future damage.
Benefits of Equine Sports Message Therapy:
- Enhances muscle tone and increases range of motion
- Assists in balancing the body by treating the body as a whole, rather than individual parts
- Reduces inflammation and swelling in the joints, thereby alleviating pain
- Promotes healing by increasing blood flow of nutrients to the muscles, and carrying away ecessive fluids and toxins
- Creates a positive effect on the contractual and release processes of the muscles. when tension is released, muscle relax
- Stimulates circulation, thereby releasing endorphins – natural pain killers. Improved circulation also increases excretion of toxins through the skin
- Helps maintain the WHOLE body in better physical condition
PRE-EVENT SPORTS MASSAGE loosens, warms, and readies muscles for an event.
POST-EVENT SPORTS MASSAGE relives muscle pain and stiffness by returning the muscles to a normal state, much faster than if they’d been allowed to go without a massage. after vigorous exercise, dehydration takes place in the horse and with loss of fluids its harder for them to cool down.
