Equine and rider chiropractic care
Success in equestrian sports, no matter the discipline and level, is dependant on the team work between horse and rider. At Back to Back Chiropractic we provide care for both horses and riders. When we have the opportunity to check the horse and rider we can establish how the horse is compensating for the rider's imbalances and how the rider is compensating for the horse's imbalances. We then work with each individually to help restore balance both structurally and functionally in their bodies allowing them to come together as a team to achieve optimal performance.
Chiropractic restores balance structurally and functionally by removing any interference to the communication pathways within the body (your nervous system). When your brain can receive accurate sensory information from your body it can direct appropriate actions in response to its internal and external environments. This allowing your body to express health. These responses include physical movements, organ function, emotional regulation, as well as healing and structural adaptation.
When working with your horse you rely on this communication. To maintain balance, and know where your body positioned, as well as with your horse as they sense your aids and provides you the appropriate response. Accurate and effective communication between the rider and horse really is essential in reaching your optimal performance.
Chiropractic care supports structural and functional balance to support the health, performance, recovery and longevity for both riders and their horses.
