Join our up and coming Equine
webinars YOUR WAY!

with Constanza Gomez Alvarez: DVM, PhD, MRCVS, FHEA, CVA, CCRT

Join us for a practical exploration of the equine skeleton, where we’ll break down the anatomy and function of the bone, key structural attachments, and their role in standing and movement. This webinar will provide a description of joint range of motion and movement planes. Gain valuable insights into the anatomical relationships between bones and how they influence biomechanics, performance, and injury prevention in horses. We will also have a look at the interaction of different muscle groups. Whether you’re a veterinarian, therapist, or equine professional, this session will deepen your understanding of skeletal function and its impact on equine health.

This webinar explores the biomechanical relationship between the anatomical structures of the equine musculoskeletal system, their function and the crucial roles they play during standing and in movement; including walking, trotting, galloping and jumping. The webinar also discusses how to apply biomechanics in practice: during lameness assessment, performance optimisation and for injury prevention and rehabilitation. An understanding of the anatomy and function of the musculoskeletal system of the horse is recommended before watching this webinar.

The majority of equine lameness involves repetitive strain injuries to the musculoskeletal tissues. Each tissue – bone, articular cartilage, muscle, ligament, and tendon – responds optimally to a specific type of exercise imposed at a specific age. Bone and muscle can be strengthened at any age but articular cartilage, ligament and tendon undergo most of their adaptive changes prior to 2 years-of-age. This webinar describes the timelines for optimal tissue adaptation, the appropriate type of exercise to strengthen each tissue, and the reasons for tissue failure.

In this webinar, we will have an in-depth discussion on back pain and poor performance in horses, exploring the key factors that contribute to these issues. This webinar will cover conformation challenges, the link between back pain and lameness, and the impact of rider-horse interaction. We will also examine current evaluation techniques, treatment options, and preventive strategies to optimize equine health and performance. Whether you’re a veterinarian, therapist, or equestrian professional, this session will provide valuable insights into effective management approaches.
