Mythbusting with Maija: Massage Guns + Horses

As an equine massage therapist, a question I am asked ALOT is if massage guns and their use on horses is safe or beneficial. The answer is a bit more complicated than you'd think! This week we dive into the science of massage guns and how best to approach using them on your horses! Join me and my best friend and amateur equestrian, Laura Adriaanse, as we break down the benefits of this tool! 

In other news: did you know that MOST horses experience some level of back pain?

Be sure to check out our latest mini course - BACK IN BALANCE - which teaches equestrians to learn how to identify pain through palpation, treat it with massage techniques and prevent it from occuring again, all in easy, bite sized lessons you can watch at home, on your own time. 

Back in Balance is currently on SALE for $55 but don't miss out because the price is going up to $79 on February 1st!
