How often should a horse be treated with ECST?

 

There is no specific rule as to how often you should treat your horse as each horse is an individual.

Although:

• Horses in lighter work benefit from less frequent treatments like 2-3 times per year, unless they suffer a trauma like a fall or pull-back.

• Competition horses or those in heavy work benefit from more regular treatments like every 6-8 weeks, because like athletes they are subjecting their bodies to a lot of stress.
