How Equissage Can Help Horses with Old Injuries or Stiffness

How Equissage Can Help Horses with Old Injuries or Stiffness

Old injuries don’t just disappear.
Even when a horse seems “healed,” there can be lingering stiffness, reduced range of motion, and subtle compensations that affect performance.

Whether it’s an old muscle strain, a past joint issue, or general stiffness from years of hard work—Equissage Cycloid Vibration Therapy (CVT) can make a real difference.

Let’s talk about how Equissage helps horses with old injuries feel better, move better, and stay sounder for longer.


Why Old Injuries Don’t Just Go Away

Even after the main issue has healed:
✔️ Scar tissue can restrict movement
✔️ Muscles can stay tight from guarding the injured area
✔️ The horse may have learned compensations that cause uneven wear

Over time, this can lead to:

·       Stiffness

·       Reduced stride length

·       Uneven patterns

·       Secondary soreness in other areas


How Equissage Helps Horses with Old Injuries

✔️ Increases blood flow to tight, restricted areas
✔️ Supports lymphatic drainage to help clear waste products
✔️ Gently works through scar tissue
✔️ Helps muscles relax and move freely again

The cycloid vibration penetrates deep into the muscle layers, getting to areas traditional massage can’t reach.


Real Results from Real Horses

💬 Riders using Equissage on horses with old injuries are seeing:

·       More relaxed movement

·       Smoother, more even strides

·       Less resistance in warm-up and work

·       Happier, more willing attitudes

Regular use keeps old problems from creeping back in.

👉 The key is consistent use—that’s where the real results show up.
