Osteopathy in horses

Osteopathy in horses is a form of manual therapy focused on assessing and improving the horse’s musculoskeletal system. Practitioners gently manipulate muscles, joints, and bones to identify restrictions or imbalances that may affect movement, performance, or comfort. By restoring proper alignment and function, osteopathy can help improve mobility, reduce pain, and support overall health. It is a holistic approach that considers the horse’s biomechanics and well-being, often used alongside veterinary care to address issues like stiffness, lameness, or post-injury recovery.
