Initial Assessment
Comprehensive Assessment of your Riding both off and on your horse
$600 (private health fund rebates apply)
Full 2.5 -3.5 hour assessment includes :
An off the horse assessment, during this assessment I am looking for muscle length and strength issues and particular issues you may have with your body. ( For example if you have a old injury or scoliosis)
An on your horse assessment. This is best done when wearing a crop top or similar so that I can see your anatomy and how you move. We will try some corrections when you are mounted.
Whilst you are untacking your horse I will formulate an intervention program. This may include home exercises, work to do with your coach or specific changes you may need to make.
Going through the intervention program with you to ensure you have an understanding of what you need to do. During this time your horse will have access to large safe grassy yard with water and stable.
A full written report including your exercise program. I encourage you to share this report with your riding coach, personal trainer or local physio.
Follow Up Consultation
A follow up can be arranged. I encourage people to work on their home program for a few weeks before seeking follow up.
