  • Electrical Stimulation

    Electric stimulation is used therapeutically to reduce pain, increase circulation, and promote healing. Electrodes are applied directly to the skin, and deliver low voltage intermittent stimulation to the surface nerves of the skin. Transmission of pain signals are blocked by the release of endorphins, allowing healing.

  • Equine Body Work

    Sound Equine and Canine Care uses non-invasive techniques to help rehabilitate injured horses and prevent future injuries. Horses are naturally compelled to move freely at all times, which makes injury recovery a delicate process.

  • Massage

    Manipulation of soft tissue eases stiffness, promotes circulation and tissue drainage, and provides muscle relaxation and pain relief.

  • Rehabilitation

    Certain injuries require intensive or more regular intervention than a visiting therapist can provide. Sound Equine & Canine Care's rehabilitation center accomodates horses with tendon, ligament, and soft tissue injuries.

  • Ultrasound

    Ultrasound therapy for horses and dogs has proven to increase cellular activity and circulation in damaged muscles, tendons, and ligaments. There is a reduction in muscle spasms and an increase in connective tissue mobility. Ultrasound combined with stretching exercises will elongate muscle and reduce scar tissue restriction.
