Still not sure if massage makes a difference?

There's about 90 minutes time between the 'Before' and 'After 1st Session' photos. The second session was a week after the first. The only thing I use is my hands.

CONTRAINDICATIONS TO EQUINE MASSAGE

For an educated and skilled equine massage therapist, it's critically important to know when massage should NOT be done.

It's also important for owners to know when massage should not be done. In the following cases, a veterinarian consultation, guidance and/or approval is required for the health and safety of the horse:

🚫 When a mare is pregnant, especially during the first and last trimester. Massage can trigger pre-term labor.

🚫 When a horse's temperature is over 102°F or 39°C.

🚫 When a horse is in shock.

🚫 When there is an open or healing wound.

🚫 When there is acute trauma or injury.

🚫 When a horse is on stall rest.

🚫 When a horse has cancer.

🚫 When a horse has a skin condition with the potential to spread.

🚫 When a horse has an infectious disease.

A veterinarian needs to be consulted in all of the above situations.

I get to work on these mares whenever they come to the Twisted TURN N BURN races.

Here's what the owner had to say. 😊

Ask me how massage can make a difference!

Set up in the stall barn at the corner of the warm up arena! Stop by and say hi!
