25.01.2022 When your head is too sore for hands on therapy - Equi-Tape to the rescue! Mollie's head pain has been relieved using a decompression application. I have seen Mollie only once before and when I turned up again she made her way through the herd to be first at the gate with ears forward, she was making sure she was first in line! When I went to assess her she said a big no to my hands (check the video!), so I pulled out the tape straight up and she said YES! and allowed this application with no fuss at all! Her relief and then processing says it all. https://www.facebook.com/equinemassageKA/ #equinemassageKA #EquiTapeAus #equitape #equinerehab #equinekinesiologytaping #equinebodywork #horsehealthcare #equinehealthcare #equinehealth #redlighttherapy #equineMFR #equinemyofascialrelease

25.01.2022 When did we lose our way??!! It seems as an industry we have largely lost our way as we continue to come across very high percentages of broken alignment & we a...re seeing NPA almost daily. Just yesterday I HoofScanned 2 high grade eventers, shod by a qualified farrier with a good reputation. Both horses were significantly NPA in both hind feet caused by total caudal failure & the signs were so obvious it makes me wonder how a farrier of this experience & reputation misses this. The owner is competitive & has spent thousands on one horse incl injections in hocks more than once, which often seems standard practice even if nothing pathological is found. This week alone I’ve been sent 2 lots of rads from the UK, which were taken as the horses were going poorly. The vets found nothing of concern, yet the rads showed NPA in both sets, one in front & the other behind. Based on conversation with the owners the findings of NPA are consistent with the horses behaviours. Unfortunately both are now having difficulty convincing their farriers thst this is a concern & needs corrected. Myself over the last couple of weeks have had similar issues. One was a set of xrays being sent to me by a vet who had breakover marked where he wanted it to the millimetre, yet didn’t mention the very broken back alignment. Whilst another vet attended one of my clients & felt the horse had too much heel (photo below) & took it upon himself to take a rasp to the foot & remove the heel The amount of times clients tell me their farrier told them that lowering the heel & moving breakover back from the toe improves alignment is amazing. I’ve also been told this numerous times. We seem to have lost the understanding of the importance of comfort to the horse when shoeing as we seem to be constantly removing heels & breaking alignment, even in horses with already broken alignment How can we as an industry have moved so far away from the basic principles of farriery? And more importantly, how can we get back on track!

24.01.2022 Yesterday I had the opportunity to work with Bonnie, an 24yr old STB mare. She unfortunately had an accident with a car in the middle of the night. She survived with multiple injuries, her paddock friend didn't. I saw her yesterday 10 days post accident, her beautiful owners have been looking after her around the clock at home and made her the most comfortable they could. Her wound on her chest is so deep and open that air passes through, this had created subcutaneous emphyse...ma from her jaw all the way down her neck, chest, back, stifle and even into her hock, the crepitus feel to her body was just about everywhere you laid your hands. This was a big job and the lymphatics needed help, so I called in the big guns! I messaged Rebecca Haddock, vice president of Equi-Tape in Colorado, and she video called back 10 minutes later - talk about being supported!! Rebecca assessed and then gave me a plan for a very advanced lymphatic application with detailed instructions with monitoring vitals whilst applying, and continued to give her advice and help for the duration of the session. I worked on this beautiful shut down mare for 90mins, applying and monitoring, and then all of a sudden she 'woke up'! It was miraculous, her eyes opened, she took a few deep breaths, she shifted a little and then started interacting with us, touching us with her head, looking for food and water. It was a beautiful thing. The fluids started shifting through her body and by the time I left 4hrs later she was walking around, eating handfuls of grass and her body was warm. It made my heart sing! I went back 3hrs later and checked her again, the crepitus feel was gone from her neck, stifle and hock on one side, her head had reduced in size and so had her chest and withers. She had a constant drip out her wound as the fluid was now draining out. Her vet was also called after the session and updated, she was thrilled with the result! I will be keeping in constant contact with her owner and back up to see her for another session in a week, where I will triage her again and address her most pressing issues. See more

24.01.2022 Jungle Update 3 1/2 weeks after getting himself into a tangle with the stable fence and the hot tape, Jungle has made great strides in his recovery. His back is no longer sore, his pelvis and hips are no longer stiff, and he is walking out really well 3 times a day. His wounds have just about healed and we are now mainly dealing with residual swelling and a 1/5 lameness. Jungle has a small wound on the medial area of the Tibia that is sensitive to touch, taking a litt...le longer to heal and needs covering. I placed a small dressing with honey and then used Equi-Tape to hold it in place. Using Equi-Tape instead of vet wrap ensures there is no strangulation and the muscles, tendons and vessels remain unrestricted. Equi-Tape is made for movement! #equinemassageKA #EquiTapeAus #equitape #equinerehab #equinekinesiologytaping #equinebodywork #horsehealthcare #equinehealthcare #equinevetnurse See more

23.01.2022 Vet Nurses, Stud Nurses, Zoo Keepers, Horse Grooms, Stable Hands and Animal Attendants - here is an awesome modality to add to your tool kit! On my run down to Albury/Vic over the weekend, I saw Jodie who is a vet nurse in Wodonga. Her gorgeous mare had an accident with a fence resulting in open wounds, cellulitis, antibiotics and pain relief. Her mare was cleared for rehab therapy so I dropped in and showed Jodie how to help shift the large amounts of edem...a sitting in her legs from sluggish lymphatics using Equi-Tape. I worked on her hind leg, showing Jodie how to prep the area and apply the tape, while Jodie worked on the front leg - great job done for a team effort! Equi-Tape applications are a handy tool to have to support your animals through rehab, including hematomas, edema, lymph and fascia problems, joint effusion, muscle tears, aches and stiffness, scar tissues and tendon/ligament issues. https://www.equi-tape.com.au/pa/benefits-of-equi-tape%C2%AE See more

18.01.2022 Bonnie Update 4 1/2 weeks ago Bonnie had an unfortunate accident with a car late in the night leaving her with multiple injuries and in a state of shock. Over the last 3 weeks I have been working with Bonnie to bring her out of pain and heal her body. Look at her now, the video is her first session and then her session yesterday, 3 weeks difference! Bonnie is now out of her backyard hospital bed and in the paddock. She wades into her dam a little and wanders around... grazing. I've put her on a daily 15min hand walk for the next two weeks, to help her regain strength and proprioception - to put her back into her body again. https://www.facebook.com/equinemassageKA/posts/3461917210512988 https://www.facebook.com/equinemassageKA/posts/3528488927189149 See more

09.01.2022 So what has my sponsor horse Jungle been up to? Rolling under the stable yard fence and getting his leg stuck between a wooden board and hot tape!! Poor boy tried his hardest for 10mins to kick his leg out, when Kristy finally got him free he had badly bruised the whole leg, scraping off skin and barely escaping muscle and tendon damage to the the hamstring muscle group. Jungle has seen his vet twice in 8hrs to make sure he was ok. After applying Equi-Tape to disperse the sw...elling and pain relief, Jungle went from non weight bearing lame to feeling comfortable and pain free enough to stand on all four legs with his hamstrings relaxed, greatly reducing supporting limb pain and fatigue. I'll be visiting and monitoring Jungle daily for the next two weeks, and adjusting his applications as needed. See more

02.01.2022 Woah! This is why I encourage xrays with hoof problems - ouch!

01.01.2022 Jungle update, in just 24hrs Jungle has made great progress, his wounds are healing rapidly, his body is being soothed and repaired, and his temperament is nearly back to the playful joking man we all love. The swelling in Kristy's hand has reduced by half and she has a lot less pain and more range of motion. Jungle's bruising, scrapes and swelling have made a dramatic improvement in 24hrs. All who have checked on him today have remarked on the major improvement in walki...ng and turning in his stable. He is back to greeting people at the stable door - cheeky monkey that he is! Tonight he received his first dose of photobiomodulation therapy (low level laser LLL) with pulsed 40hz gamma waves to penetrate deep within his Sacroiliac joint, dispersing the deep inflammation in his pelvis. And LLL to his lumbar and rib cage. He is also receiving twice daily blue light therapy. Blue wavelengths penetrate into the skin to stimulate cell growth and repair, and promote the creation of purifying oxygen molecules within the skin. These molecules have the ability to quickly and effectively destroy bacteria. Blue light therapy is complementing Jungle's week long course of AB's. See more
