Massage for Horses :-

Massage is an age-old therapy that has been used on horses for centuries. There are many forms of massage, but all of them provide numerous benefits. The application of the hands-on techniques is designed to improve the quality and length of the horses stride. Increase circulation, range of motion, stamina and performance. Emotional effects can also occur. Relaxation of the horses mind, a better disposition, and return of his gentle character are often noted by the owners after a course of massage treatment. The horse himself enjoys his time being massaged, many changes can occur to the horse whilst the treatment is raking place. Head lowering, yawning, spontaneous stretching, drinking water, even nodding of to sleep! All signs the horse is benefiting and enjoying the session.
