Sports massage has a historic use dating back to ancient Egyptians, Chinese, Greeks and Romans. In more recent times it’s use became more developed for human athletes to not only perform better, but to recover faster with reduced injury.
It didn’t take long for people to realise the benefits of equine massage would have a positive effect not only on our equine athletes but also for the animals we keep for pleasure activities.
