Why use ECST?

 

How a horse is kept, ridden and what is expected of them – can expose horses to traumas and injuries which often escape the owners attention.

A pull back when tied up – this can trigger a chain of events which can cause tension in the head, neck, back or elsewhere in the body. This can lead to the horse being difficult to bridle or even ride.

Slipping on the road, tight nosebands, bits, poor dentistry, ill-fitting tack – these can all contribute to ongoing and worsening constrictions in the horse’s musculoskeletal system. ECST can assist in relieving the restrictions and has been known to resolve some problems which more conventional therapy has been unable to.

ECST aids in bringing balance to the whole musculoskeletal system which contributes to good balanced biomechanics (this is essential for general long term health of joints, tendons and ligaments) and overall health. Compensation patterns set in when the body is out of balance, this in turn results in the deterioration of muscles, nerves, joints, bone structure and skeletal system. ECST helps to resolve these issues.
