Key information
PANEL DISCUSSION DESCRIPTION
Back and sacroiliac problems are commonly recognized in the horse. While they may represent a diagnostic and therapeutic dilemma, rehabilitation following treatment can greatly increase a horse’s chances of returning to previous level of work.
The international multidisciplinary panel consisting of two physiotherapists and an Equine Sports Medicine clinician will discuss manual therapy interventions, exercises and therapeutic modalities that can be utilized both during the treatment process and recovery period. Development of therapeutic regimes and outcome measures to help adapt rehab programs and ensure the best possible outcomes will also be debated. Other discussion points will include: When should rehabilitation techniques be instituted? Which exercises can affect the back and sacroiliac areas? What modalities and manual therapies can be used to improve function of the back and sacroiliac regions? What exercises and modalities may be used to prevent back and sacroiliac issues? Which rehabilitation techniques are contraindicated?
These and many other points will be debated providing attending vets with plenty of opportunity to ask questions and share their thoughts and experiences.
