From Lame to Strong: Step-by-Step Corrective Exercises for Horses Recovering from Injury, Surgery, and Lameness (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798180622471)

When Your Horse Goes Lame, Rest Is Only the Beginning.

Rest stops the damage. Corrective exercise is what rebuilds the horse.
If your horse has been diagnosed with a lameness condition, you have probably been told to rest them and wait. Rest is essential - but it is not rehabilitation. Without the right corrective exercise programme, your horse returns to work weaker, more asymmetrical, and more vulnerable to re-injury than before.
From Lame to Strong is the complete owner-focused rehabilitation guide that takes you from the first weeks of controlled walking to full return to work, with a clear, progressive exercise programme for every major condition affecting horses today.
