Equine Kinesiology Taping

Overview

‍
Equine Kinesiology Taping is a specialized technique that uses elastic therapeutic tape to support muscles, tendons, and ligaments while allowing full range of motion. This therapy helps reduce inflammation, improve circulation, and relieve muscle tension, making it an ideal choice for both performance horses and those recovering from injury. The tape works by gently lifting the skin, which increases blood flow and lymphatic drainage, accelerating the body’s natural healing processes.

Whether your horse is recovering from an injury, experiencing soreness from training, or simply needs extra support during competitions, kinesiology taping can provide significant benefits. This non-invasive treatment is designed to enhance your horse’s comfort and performance, promoting quicker recovery and preventing further injury.

The Process

‍
Each session begins with a thorough evaluation of your horse’s specific needs and areas of concern. Our certified therapist will then apply the tape using techniques tailored to address the unique biomechanics of your horse. The application may target areas like the back, legs, or shoulders to support muscle groups and joints under stress.

The tape remains in place for several days, continuing to provide therapeutic benefits throughout its duration. During this time, your horse can move freely, with the tape aiding in reducing pain, supporting muscle function, and improving overall mobility. The application process is gentle, and most horses tolerate it well, often showing immediate signs of relief and comfort.

The Results

‍
Equine Kinesiology Taping can lead to improved flexibility, reduced swelling, and faster recovery from exercise or injury. Many horses exhibit enhanced movement, reduced pain, and a more relaxed demeanor post-treatment. Regular taping sessions can be a valuable addition to your horse’s overall health management, helping to prevent injuries, support rehabilitation, and optimize performance.

With this therapy, we aim to support your horse’s journey to peak health and performance. Trust our expertise to provide the best care, helping your horse stay strong, healthy, and ready to perform at their best.
