Sarah’s Understanding, Knowledge & Care of Equine Athletes
Sarah brings years of experience in equine nutrition and specialized care of equine athletes. Maintaining equine athletes to perform well in the ring as well as supporting athletic longevity requires specialized regimens. Sarah employs nutritional support, ensures appropriate warm-up and cool-down before and after work, and care such as icing in the routine management of the horses in her program.
BEMER Horse Blanket
Sarah uses the BEMER horse therapy blanket to improve microcirculation, promote recovery and regeneration, improve suppleness, and enhance relaxation pre and post training. Microcirculation is vital in supplying nutrients and removing waste from the body. “BEMER stands for Bio-Electro-Magnetic-Energy-Regulation. BEMER devices use a pulsed electromagnetic field (PEMF) to deliver a patented bio-rhythmically defined therapeutic signal.” According to BEMER Group, BEMER therapy has been heavily studied and shown to be an incredibly effective therapy for equine athletes: reducing muscular back pain, improving functional movement, improving microcirculation and vasomotion, promoting relaxation and regeneration after exercise, supporting parasympathetic processes in the body, increasing physical performance, optimizing suppleness, and speeding the recovery process after an injury.
Vitafloor
Sarah uses her Vitafloor to aid in the performance, injury prevention, and recovery of all of her horses. The Vitafloor invented Equine Vibration Technology has been heavily studied, researched and verified in its effectiveness specifically for horses, and is endorsed by veterinarians across the globe.The Vitafloor improves blood circulation throughout the body, not just in the legs, but even in the upper body and organs. The Vitafloor improves size and symmetry of equine back muscles, and aids in significant muscle power increases throughout the body. It helps develop more elevation, in the horses’ stride, as well as an overall elasticity, and flexibility increase. Shorter training sessions are necessary with greater flexibility and stamina in the horses. The Vitafloor lowers cortisol levels for relaxation, burns fat, and raises production of testosterone. With the Vitafloor there is less risk for muscle or tendon tears and bone fractures. It has a documented positive effect on osteoporosis (brittle bones) and the disease Silicosis. It increases bone density by up to 20%!! Bone scans at UC Davis show that the Vitafloor regenerates bone density not just in the legs, but also in the ribs. Vitafloor also helps in the treatment of soft tissue injuries, joint soreness, laminitis, and navicular disease. The Vitafloor stimulates healthier and faster hoof growth.
