Episode #87: Injury and Return to Play

Pain is only one outcome measure we are looking at when bring a horse back into work. 

Statistics show that the #1 thing you are most likely to injure when returning to play is the thing you injured in the first place.

This means that we need to look at the rehabilitation process very closely and use several outcome measures to live through the phases of recovery.

Join me for this episode where we look at the phases of injury and rehabilitation. We break down when global exercises are indicated and when tissue specific inputs are needed.
