Competition horses, as well as human athletes, work very hard to achieve top results. A lot of effort is put into training, feeding, and treating the horse to help it perform at its potential maximum:
Unfortunately, such top performances often result in more injuries, pain, and horses getting tired prematurely.
The horse is a top athlete. For a top athlete, physical and mental well-being is an important factor. Treatments such as osteopathy, massage, acupressure, and physiotherapy can contribute to the horse’s daily welfare and well-being. In the long term, a stressed nervous system can affect muscles, organs, and the immune system. Treatment can serve as a preventive measure to counteract tense muscles, tendons, joints, and a stressed nervous system.
NOTE: REMEMBER: Osteopathy, massage, physiotherapy, and acupressure are NOT a substitute or alternative to veterinary treatment.
The name osteopathy comes from the Greek words OSTEON, meaning “bone,” and PATHOS, meaning “suffering” in relation to disease. It is a treatment method founded by the American physician Andrew Taylor Still in 1882.
Osteopathy is a form of treatment or manual medicine that involves bones, joints, muscles, connective tissue, and more. Various techniques are used, such as manipulation, mobilization, muscle energy techniques, massage, physiotherapy, and others.
The goal of osteopathy is to restore the body’s natural function. The connection between form and function is crucial and should work optimally.
Quote from A. Taylor Still: “Search for the disorder: Find it → Fix it → leave it, and nature will do the rest. If you remove the cause, recovery will follow.”
