Equine Stretching

Foreleg Stretch

This front leg exercise can be done by yourself, but it is easier with someone helping you especially if they can do myofascial work simultaneously. 3 repetitions of of 15-30 seconds with applied myofascial equine type massage, using origins and insertions can be very powerful!

You can see the general area all the way from the nuchal ligament of the top line right down to the hoof is getting a good stretch.

Again all these techniques, in my not so humble opinion, are better preceded by a few minutes of equine massage work of your choice to limber the muscles up and accelerate the process of removing the by products of the metabolic process. Try to go slowly. It s great stretch for Dressage and cutting horses!
