Equine & Equestrian Therapies 

PEMF Therapy

PEMF, or pulsed electromagnetic field therapy, is a treatment that uses the naturally occurring electromagnetic field to improve cellular development and recovery.

It’s been FDA approved for use on humans since 2007 and has been extremely effective, so as human and equine cells are nearly identical it’s now being used on horses and other mammals as an excellent method of:

  • Reducing inflammation, swelling and stiffness

  • Easing sore muscles

  • Speeding the healing of soft tissues and bruising

  • Reducing hoof abscesses

  • Reducing colic symptoms & discomfort

  • Increasing range & ease of movement

  • Stimulating circulation & lymph drainage

PEMF Therapy sends a low-energy electrical current to a specific area of a horse’s body. It’s non-invasive, does not require sedation or other drugs and the pulse goes bone deep, so it may also help reduce the time fractures take to heal.

Contra indications include pacemaker and cochlear implants,  metal surgical mesh, pregnancy.

Reiki

Raku Kei, The Way of The Fire Dragon The word “Reiki” means “mysterious atmosphere, miraculous sign.” It comes from the Japanese words “rei” (universal) and “ki” (life energy). Reiki is a type of energy healing.

It works for virtually any area of the body that has soft tissue. Utilising  trigger points and acupressure points to help reduce soft tissue soreness, joint stiffness, irritation & inflammation.

It aims to stretch, loosen and lengthen the muscle and soft tissue (fascia) that may have been disrupting blood vessels or nerves, allowing it to move more freely. This in turn allows blood to flow through it and releases any nerve impediment. Successful treatment will see the restoration of full pain-free range of motion along the affected muscle.
