Abstract
- This article from Horse Illustrated discusses the therapeutic benefits of galloping for horses. Galloping can release tension and stiffness in a horse's back and hindquarters, improving their athleticism and overall well-being. The article explains that while therapies like chiropractic care and massage can help release areas of immobility, corrective exercises are necessary to create healthy movement patterns. The article provides a step-by-step exercise for riders to gradually introduce galloping to their horses in a controlled and safe manner. Galloping can help address rhythm irregularity, a hollow back, and one-sidedness in horses. [Extracted from the article]
