What is equine muscle release therapy emrt™

(Bowen Therapy for Horses)

Horses are athletes. It doesn't matter what work discipline they do; they put their bodies through stress and strain the same as human athletes.

However, the difference between horses and humans is that often they cannot let you know where it hurts. Sometimes they can appear to be fine but a trained eye or hand can pick up problems that otherwise wouldn't be noticed.

The Equine Muscle Release Therapy EMRT™ which is the official Bowen Therapy for horses is accredited with the Bowen Therapy Academy of Australia (BTAA). The therapy works on balancing the whole body and brain of the horse. A thorough treatment takes approximately one hour.

The great benefits of EMRT show that horses have consistently higher performance levels and accelerated injury recovery rates. With regular treatment EMRT can prevent stress and strains, relaxing your horse and keeping him happy. It is not just a treatment for injuries, but for overall horse health.

EMRT can be used on other animals as well as horses.

Equine Muscle Release Therapy (EMRT) is now being used at International Level in a number of Countries.

EMRT was used by the Gold Medal Winning Australian Endurance Team at the World Cup- France 2000 – and is the Therapy allowed by FEI & EFA to be used on the day of the event.

EMRT was the Therapy that helped the Irish Grand National Winner "Bunny Boiler" to claim the Cup in 2002.

EMRT works in conjunction with your Vet. EMRT does not replace Veterinary Treatment, but EMRT can be used in conjunction with & complements other Healing Modalities, as EMRT Activates The Body’s Powerful Natural Self-Healing Ability.

How does Equine Muscle Release Therapy work?

EMRT works on the nervous system to put the horses into balance and to promote horse health. Most of the EMRT bodywork is concentrated on connective tissue known as FASCIA. Fascia can entrap nerves affecting the CNS (Central Nervous System). The CNS of the horse consists of the brain and spinal cord. It's like an "Information Highway" carrying messages to and from the body and brain. Any disfunction of the CNS and/or blockages in other parts of the body can also affect the involuntary nervous system. The system controls bodily functions such as Digestion, Heart Rate, Bladder and Bowel Functions etc.

Other systems address by EMRT Therapy are:-

  • Circulation
  • Unexplained performance deterioration
  • Unexplained resistance
  • Irritability
  • Uneven muscle development or muscle wastage
