In human medicine, it’s common practice for patients to be referred to a physical therapist for musculoskeletal pain or biomechanical impairments. With equine medicine, there isn’t a clear medical provider there to provide that service.
Certified equine rehab practicioners are there to bridge that gap in equine medicine with collaboration from your veterinarian. When a human is injured, a physical therapist is able to appropriately treat and return to sport safely. The same rule applies to our equine partners. Adding a Certified Equine Rehab Practicioner to your horse’s support team is a great step to ensuring they can achieve their optimal potential!
