Not so relaxing massage....

We thought about making friends with Maisie the little 6 month old baby next door this week!

So to try and get a bit further with the fixing of this hip issue we had Bronte from Apollo Equine Massage out on Wednesday to see if a bit of soft tissue work is any help. I can’t say Dino really enjoyed it; his left shoulder was extremely tight, as were his glutes and his hamstrings. Hard to say whether he felt any better afterwards – Thursday was SO COLD we played in the school in hand for 20 mins and then I put him in the field. He had Friday off and then I rode Saturday and Sunday. Saturday he seemed ok, Sunday he seemed more stiff. David is out again next week.

This week I shall try some freeschooling and then maybe a lunge session with the Equicore to see if that helps to free him up a bit.
