Equine Sports Massage Therapy is a preventative therapy which helps the horse maintain healthy muscle function and performance.

Does your horse suffer from soreness in the back, from stiffness, arthritic conditions, hard work, ligament, tendon, muscle or bone injury, fractures, poor circulation or tie up?

PEMF (Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field) Therapy is widely used in conditioning race horses at race tracks around the world.

PEMF therapy regenerates damaged and diseased tissue, repairs torn tendons and fractured bones.

PEMF therapy enhances the synthesis of protein in the cells, allowing the body to take advantage of all the protein available.

PEMF therapy improves circulation, not by increasing heartbeat or blood pressure, but by opening and dilating the arteries and capillaries. This also reduces edema (swelling).

PEMF therapy increases the cellular level of oxygen absorption. Studies have shown that oxygen partial pressure can be increased by 200%. This reduces pain associated with lack of sufficient oxygen. Also, insufficient oxygen in the cells causes lactic acid buildup under strenuous exercise.

PEMF therapy is particularly effective in getting to deep muscle soreness (back, stifle, etc.) because of its deep penetration.

PEMF therapy is non-invasive, the device does not even need to touch your horse’s body.
