Urgent - Back men in central scotland please

[Nookster]

Back men in central scotland please.

Rock has bronc’d on Marsden in the past and we have had back saddle checks, all clear.

Now one day you can ride him and he’s fine and it will be days before you get another sniff of a problem. Sadly today has been the day. One full bronc, tried to ride again and another full bronc.

We would like to get his back checked again by another qualified person? But could people please let us know who are in the area?

[eventerbabe]

Nookster, give my lady a phone. She works between edinburgh and aberdeen and is in the central belt at least once a week. She's excellent. Here's her website www.physicalfengshui.com

she does the rolfing (which is what toby has), massage and reiki.

i only use jennifer allison on mine:D

have then number if you want it

[Nookster]

thanks eb

got a bowen lady getting back to me as well.

There just aren't any reasons why anymore and this is the fourth occassion........ which has ended badly for marsden. To be honest we don't discuss thing like this on the board normally

Hope Marsden and Rock are ok.

[marsden]

Hope Marsden and Rock are ok.

Another vote for Liz Jones (http://www.animalmanipulator.co.uk/). She has been treating many of the horses at my yard for quite a while now. In just a few treatments, she has transformed my boy from getting sore on a regular basis (and grumpy/nappy with it) to swinging through so much when he is ridden that i am now struggling to sit to his trot/canter.

[Jenni]

Oh girls, im so sorry.
He was coming on a treat as well.
Could it not be a mental thing rather than physical?
Might be a vet job for x-rays etc to make sure there is nothing wrong with vertebrae etc.

Fizz- jennifer allison is a massage therapist, not a back person. ;)

[amylou_84]

Ouch marsden hope you are ok!

[Nookster]

Vets checked him twice no x rays as yet.

Been through a lot of options today. Not willing to discuss what and if on here as i don't want or need peoples opinions or comments that haven't met rock or not professional. Thats sounds awful doesn't it but just trying not to start a big debate about rock. A lot has come to light today.

Scots girls you will obviously be filled in when we see ya's :p

[martini55]

I know a McTimoney-corely therapist who also does sports massage. She is fantastic. If you'd like her number just PM me :)

[PatchyPony]

hoping you are both ok marsden & rock *hugs*

Oh dear.....I hope that's not as awful as it sounds. :(

Ditto that :)

[chickflick1066]

Hope he heals soon, and it's nothing too sinister. That would be a shame.

[Kittycat]

Hope everyone is ok.

[marsden]

Ditto that :)

hoping you are both ok marsden & rock *hugs*

i'm surviving! ;) Was sore this morning and on monday but kinda 'laid it' on with the parents to get extra sympathy :D (thought they might feel guilty and get me a big pressie!! haha) but sadly since about 4 o clock my lower back has been really painful. Actually had tears rolling down my face its that sore! But i'll battle on and so will Rock!

[Palomino Mare]

i'll tell you, its the ginger ones you have to watch;)

hope you ok nikki.

after my "i need profesionals" thread i asked **greygurlie** about a back person and she said there's a guy from england who does carl hester and other well known peoples horses. anyways there's a few of his customers in my area and they have requested him - will be coming up in the next week or two hopefully and will travel about the place so i can get his number for you too?

[Nookster]

i'll tell you, its the ginger ones you have to watch;)



Whats wrong with gingers :p ;)

thanks for the offer - think we have reached a conclusion

[horsey1]

Yup Liz Jones is the best;) deff give her a try:D

[happy highlande]

Think it is Marsden might need the back man too by the sounds of things- there are some good ones in/near Auchterarder!! - then you could go to Gleneagles for afternoon tea as a treat

that she does sadly - she sat the first long bronc fine and dismounted when had chance. Second was more dirty - well not dirty. The bronc's are so extreme. Literally like a wild horse that wants to get away and never had human contact. He is head down, arched and full fling broncs with no stopping him

Second time with the twist he chucked her off at the fence :(

Feel so sorry for them both

[marsden]

I'll survive! just feel so sorry for the big guy :o but Voltan is giving me lots of cuddles and kisses to cheer me up! :D

[HorseManiac]

HAve you had the back man out yet?

update?

[Nookster]

update?

Several back and vet

No update I’m afraid. We haven’t discussed this problem online as I only want to use people that have met rock and professionals in the area. Know that sounds harsh just the way I feel rather than a big online debate to what I should do. Only arisen online now because i needed help finding more back people.

There has been some clear concise conclusions and we will move forward from there. Our decision will be out decision with the full facts. Sadly won’t please everyone and sadly life just isn’t like that.

I will make sure what I do is in the best interests of rock and Marsden

is he based in aberdeen? never heard of him! is he a back person/massage person?

[Palomino Mare]

EB - not sure what all the different names for back people are but maybe manipulator?not sure!

i really like him and i think he has an impressive resume of clients

[dcp]

Maybe not your area but she does travel to the ILPH. Jo Paul of woollands rehab in East Lothian helped with Charlie she is good.

[Denbenj]

Just came across this thread.. Hope your feeling better.. and I respect you for keeping your decisions private... Sounded like some serious broncing!

All the best x
