Presented by Veterinary Physiotherapist, qualified saddle fitter and graduate human Sports Therapist, Caroline Lindsay, this replay of interactive webinars was part of a series created for equine therapists and students of equine therapy around the world to participate in, specifically to evaluate the techniques with a view to adding to their techniques toolbox as their current level of training and expertise permits.
- A review of the anatomical names and biomechanics of the muscles and their siting on the equine head and neck, back, ribs, pelvis and limbs.
- Evaluation of the temporomandibular, hyoid, atlanto-axial, atlanto-occipital, cervical, thoracic, lumbar vertebral segments, the ribs pelvis and limbs.
- How the above joint segments can be addressed with a variety of manipulation and myofascial techniques to improve performance and gait by resolving minor segmental range of motion restrictions.
- How a selection of trigger points may be identified and addressed.
- Exercises to mobilise the head, neck, back, pelvis and limbs both manually and with stretching, ground schooling and ridden techniques.
- How the techniques can be applied to address the equine body’s support system of the newly discovered myofascial lines.
The lecture is highly visual and has a wealth of video content for clarification.
