Stress and Trigger Points

This course explores the identification, interpretation, and practical application of working with stress points and trigger points within the equine body. You’ll learn how these areas develop, how they present through posture and movement changes, and how to recognise them through skilled palpation.The session also covers safe and effective hands-on approaches to addressing these points, with a focus on appropriate pressure, response-based technique, and understanding the horse’s feedback during treatment. Emphasis is placed on clinical awareness and practical application, supporting more accurate assessment and more effective bodywork outcomes.

Originally delivered as part of our Monthly CPD Subscription, this course is now available to access on demand.

Successful completion awards 2 hours of accredited CPD along with a full certificate of completion.
