TCM ( Traditional Chinese Medicine) has been around for thousands of years which involves using very fine needles which stimulate specific points on the horses body called acupoints to relieve various health conditions.
When muscles are fatigued & joints are under stress this causes blockages this is where injury is likely to occur.
Balancing energy throughout the horses meridian system helps to promote even energy flow throughout the body. Acupoints used for treating certain painfull conditions.
Acupuncture usually takes 1-3 treatments or more depending on the problem. Anywhere from a few needles to several are inserted into specific points on the horse.
Acupuncture balances the body and in highly competitive race horses & performance horses, this can often make a big difference in achieving peak performance.
Throughout my website you can read various documents related to acupuncture & how acupuncture can be used.
