What a joy to participate in a team, the success of a horse.

I enjoyed if you post any link, useful information and suggestions that can help us to better understand and treat horses.

PREVENTION

2009-03-03T18:18:23Z

Traditionally, a Chinese doctor was consulted and paid for his patient remains in good health.During illness, care is free! It would be a bit presumptuous, especially in an intense sport and in our modern world, to think of avoiding any physical incident during the life of a equine athlete. However, it is clear that regular consultation with an osteopath acupuncturist makes it possible to ensure a longer and healthier sporting life, and above all, by harmonization of body image, reduce the number of factors that promote the installation of severe pathology .

The signs observed may be very subtlet, and the notion of well-being very subjective in the horse, but a regular review seems to me advisable before each important event, especially if there is the slightest suspicion of a problem perceived by the rider or trainer. As in any complex situation, it is best to have two opinions than one, therefore sharing all information concerning the health of the horse.

THE FOLLOW-UP

2009-03-03T18:17:56Z

Usually, it is recommended that the owner brings the horse for treatment at least three days before the horse is scheduled to work

. But of course, there is no question of leaving the horse in its box during this time, especially if it is at a high level of training and physical strength, and needs to spend its energy.

The movement of the horse must be strictly controlled: it will therefore not be put to the paddock where he could to "explode". We must limit exercise to a walk, collected trot or controlled canter, on a route as straight as possible, without any sharp movements, leaving the horse to go quietly, moving completely forward ... The duration of this session will depend on the level of fitness of the horse: if a horse is in the midst of competition, this "health walk" may very well represent ten kilometers of trotting ... Essentially continue exercising but not working.

If the manipulations focused on the region of the withers, girthing is not allowed: it is preferable to longe the horse gently.

Similarly, in case of large blockage of temporo mandibular joint, avoid putting a bit in the horse's mouth during these three days: longe and halter or cavesson; if the horse need to be riden, use a hackamore . If the disease is treated in connection with a dental problem, it may be necessary to wait before using a bit until the condition is corrected by dentistry. On the fourth day, it is considered that the horse can return to "work" itself, even if everything goes well, the competition.

Why this protocol? It should be understood that handling a horse, it changes the perception he has of his body (his body scheme), through its brain (more specifically the neuro-vegetative nervous system ). The latter requires some time to find its bearings: a few minutes, hours or sometimes days ... As long as there is a disharmony between what the body "is" and what the brain recognizes", the horse does not make a reckless effort (eg romp free in the paddock). This phase of disharmony is a source of healing. Until the information "amortized" and that the body is fully integrated, there is a period of weakness that must be respected.

The complementary: any long installed dysfunction causes changes in local tissue muscles, fascia, joints and ligaments. Many physiotherapy treatments facilitate healing, a return to an optimal tissue quality and thus the disappearance of residual pain and inflammation. These are massage, electrotherapy, ultrasound, hydrotherapy, local friction ... depending on the indications of the osteopath. Similarly, a specific muscle work will be indicated to correct postural patterns sometimes prescribed for months. (with the rider too!)

When to review the horse?: The answer is difficult, not when the horse wants, but when discreet symptoms recur, in other words as soon as possible! otherwise, before an important deadline, or acupuncture, any change of season.

THE TREATMENTS

2009-03-03T18:17:44Z

The osteopath aims to give meaning and hierarchy to the Symptoms

Its treatment often begin by dysfunction the worst experienced by the horse : poll for a nervous , worried or even aggressive horse, and the pelvis and a sacro-iliac to a strong discomfort in hind quarter movement. Or on the contrary, some dysfunctions are so painful that they may only be approached or understood after multiple adaptative corrections : the goal is to relax the horse, to understand the merits of our approach and finally acceptance. In this case the horse gave in and finally agreed to lift a hind leg he would not give for 6 months, to manipulate a painfull poll prohibiting normal bridling for one year; In any event, the horse often shows the way forward for those who can see it. Communication is subtle but far from esoteric.

How to watch a horse and see things as they are? According to Arnaud Desjardins , 3 possible levels
The mind, liar often refers to what I believe should be
The intelligence or intellect that sees this is as it is, clearly and usefully
intuition, which etymologically means, not a kind of flair, but something thinner than intellect.

As the horse relaxes and accepts the proposed treatment. He surrenders, drops its resistance, chews, yawns and give a deep sigh, signs described by the riders in Cession de machoire described by Baucher.

The techniques used are structural and sensory. Manipulations are often accompanied by physical noise : the decoaptation of an articular gas bubble suddenly decompressed, not essential to the success of treatment, but certainly less than the welfare provided to the horse.

The treatment is often caudal to cranial, even if nothing is fixed, it's all about keeping one's ears open and attuned to patient care.
