My equine therapist gave me some exercises, but I have no idea what they mean. How far apart should I space the poles? Am I doing it right? I’m not sure if it’s working.

Sound familiar…?

It’s not just “𝐝𝐨𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐩𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤.”

It’s 𝘩𝘰𝘸 they do it that counts.

Pole work can improve proprioception, coordination, balance, strength and movement — 𝙗𝙪𝙩 𝙤𝙣𝙡𝙮 𝙬𝙝𝙚𝙣 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙝𝙤𝙧𝙨𝙚 𝙞𝙨 𝙥𝙚𝙧𝙛𝙤𝙧𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙜 𝙩𝙝𝙚 𝙚𝙭𝙚𝙧𝙘𝙞𝙨𝙚 𝙘𝙤𝙧𝙧𝙚𝙘𝙩𝙡𝙮.

And it’s not just about poles.

𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐚 𝐡𝐨𝐫𝐬𝐞 𝐦𝐨𝐯𝐞𝐬 𝐝𝐮𝐫𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐝𝐞𝐧 𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐬 𝐭𝐨𝐨. Correct movement helps support posture, balance, strength and coordination — which is why 𝘩𝘰𝘸 we ride and train is just as important as the exercises we choose.

🐴 Groundwork — how to perform the exercises correctly
🏇 Ridden — flatwork and pole work
🤸 Grids and jumping — exercises to support strength and ongoing mobility
🩹 Injury management and rehabilitation — it can be a long road, but it doesn’t have to be daunting

• Resists the contact?
• Stiffer on one rein?
• Struggling to pick up one lead?
…. just doesn’t feel quite right?

These are often brushed off as they’re “just being difficult”… but sometimes they’re your horse’s way of telling you they’re uncomfortable.

Just like us, horses may compensate when something doesn’t feel right.

Tailored treatments can help assess & support your horse’s comfort, movement and overall wellbeing:

💜 Equine Bodywork
Helps support muscle relaxation, comfort, range of motion and improve movement patterns.

💜 Photonic Therapy
Supports cellular function, recovery and overall wellbeing.

💜 Kinesiology Taping
Helps support movement, muscle function and body awareness.

💜 Cryotherapy
Injury management, supports recovery, relieves tension & improves overall comfort.

💜 Ridden / Ground Work Exercises
Targeted exercises & lessons to educate you and support strength, balance, posture and better movement for your horse.

Every horse is different, which is why I create a tailored week-by-week plan to support their individual needs. This may include pole work, stretches and postural exercises designed to help support their strength, movement and long-term soundness.

✔️ OTT Herd Hero discounts available.
✔️ Group discounts available for 3 or more horses at the one property.
