What is Equine Osteopathy?

Updated: Nov 16, 2023



The Essence of Equine Osteopathy


Osteopathy is based on the idea that all the body systems are related. With that in mind, a holistic approach is taken to encourage and enhance the health and wellness on the part of the horse. Skilled palpation and a detailed knowledge of anatomy, physiology and biomechanics guides the therapist to restore balance between all systems. It is necessary to keep in mind that structure and function are interrelated and each can affect the other. The goal is to remove restrictions to vascular, neural and biomechanics and ultimately support the natural healing of the body.

The Process

Many horse owners are unaware of the physical restrictions that can be the result of the daily requirements of schooling, post exercise soreness, pain, chronic tension and increased work loads. It is my goal to detect any and all issues through visual and hands-on assessments and to provide mobilization to the restricted areas. By doing this we encourage optimal body function through gentle, noninvasive techniques.




Elevating Performance and Preventing Future Discomfort


Horses with finely tuned musculoskeletal health possess superior agility, improved coordination, and effortless execution of tasks. For those in the competitive arena, equine osteopathy acts as a performance enhancer while acting as a guardian against overuse injuries. With regular osteopathic care, your horse becomes a resilient athlete, ready to conquer challenges head-on.
