"Horses are like sponges," as many practitioners say. Muscles of the horses back absorb a lot. They can have holding patterns of pain and soreness here that can be stemming from head, neck and shoulder issues as well. It is important to note that horses generally do not take weight of horse and rider on its back but on the ribs and muscles of barrel. The back sure takes a lot of abuse from our sometimes bouncing bodies and saddles we strap on. Here I am using my walking fingers with pressure to find areas of tension then using deep direct pressure to alleviate this congestion.
