Mechanics for the Equine Athlete

Mechanics for the Equine Athlete offers one of the most comprehensive array of soft tissue modalities available for equines. Heidi Pichotta's program is diversely unique, which has significantly contributed to her remarkable success rate. With Heidi's corrective muscle therapy techniques, she is not only able to help you get that extra edge and prevent injuries, she can also help you develop a rehabilitation program (under your veterinarians's guidance) designed to get your horse back in the arena, on the course, or trail as quickly as possible. Heidi Pichotta works in conjunction with veterinarians, farriers, and other reputable health care providers to achieve optimum results. After all, every athlete needs a skilled team to keep them performing at their best!

We have world and national champions in nearly every discipline amongst our family of clients. We are extremely proud to be a part of each and every horse's health care program. Thank you all for giving us the opportunity to work with your athletes!

Why It Works

The harder an athlete works, the greater the need for body-work to keep muscles in top shape. When we ask for maximum effort from our horse, it will inevitably put stress on their body. Horses, just like human athletes, on a regular bodywork program, have fewer injuries, illnesses, recover faster, and perform better.

Regular body-work will increase performance and prevent injures...period.

Equine bodywork can be extremely beneficial to your horse, but it should not take the place of proper veterinarian care.
