Why use it?

Massage is an excellent preventative therapy for your horse. Massage helps to keep your horse fit and lessens the likelihood of injury. If your horse is a competitive horse... massage will give you and your horse that competitive edge you've been striving for. If your horse is a pleasure horse... massage will give you and your horse a more relaxed and balanced ride. For the best results, integrate massage therapy into your total health care regimen.

Massage is perfect for:

• Pre-event (as a warm-up, it increases flexibility and aids in the prevention of injury)
• Post-event (as a cool-down, it increases circulation and reduces the trauma of exercise)
• Maintenance (as an integrated part of your horse care regimen, it keeps your horse fit and happy)

Note: Massage is NEVER a substitute for Veterinary medicine.
