Equinology Inc. Applications
Equine body work has a number of benefits for horses. It increases stamina and performance as no energy is being wasted in holding stress within the horse’s body.
After a horse has been treated by equine body work, it is common to see a change in its behaviour. If a horse is uncomfortable it is likely that this will be evidenced in its behaviour. Although it may seem that the horse is misbehaving, it may just be trying to let you know that it is in pain. Once this pain is relieved, it is likely that the horse’s bad behaviour will cease.
