Equine professionals constantly talk about the importance of maintenance - a regular action that helps to spot and eliminate potential threats to your awesome day!
A tiny niggle, a swishy tail, misstep, a cranky faceโฆ it could actually be something far more serious than just an โoffโ day.
Hearing โTheyโre ok at the moment, theyโre still performingโฆโ and โthey need to work harder firstโ is actually very common.
And then one day theyโre not ok and then youโre frantically trying to book last minute appointments with everyone for everything!
Often by the time you realise there is an issue, itโs generally been there for a while. ๐๐ค๐ง๐จ๐๐จ ๐๐ง๐ ๐๐ง๐๐๐ฉ ๐๐ค๐ข๐ฅ๐๐ฃ๐จ๐๐ฉ๐ค๐ง๐จ. They can also communicate in very subtle ways that can easily go unnoticed.
So when we talk about regular maintenance itโs because it matters, and itโs in your horses best interest.
Injuries donโt always happen suddenly - you can try to prevent many of them with adequate fitness and nutrition, regular bodywork, PEMF therapy and correct hoofcare.
If you happen to have a horse with an injury - please donโt stop their maintenance simply because you arenโt riding! Paddocks donโt miraculously solve problems - give them the best chance you can at a full recovery while they rest by continuing the maintenance you have been recommended ๐ฉต
