When to reach for it
shoulder soreness, shortened front-leg stride, usually one-sided
About this program
A horse has no collarbone: the entire front end hangs in a sling of muscle. That gives the shoulder its huge stride — and means every problem there is a muscle-and-motion problem, usually on one side only.
Consider this program when:
- the stride of one front leg has shortened
- soreness follows a slip or an awkward jump
- the shoulder muscles hold tension under saddle work
- an older horse is losing freedom in the front end
One shoulder per treatment — the affected side only; a genuine both-sides case is two runs.
