Increases the range of motion
A horse that moves properly is more efficient and therefore uses less energy. There is reduced wear and tear on the joints, ligaments and tendons therefore allowing an increased performance life. A longer and more efficient stride in a well conditioned, sound race horse can make all the difference approaching the finish line. The dressage horse that is flexible looks more fluid and feels more elastic. A jumper uses a major amount of muscle during take off, flight and land. If he is flexible and agile with the muscles working in harmony, he’ll make light work of his job.

Improves the circulation
When stabled over night, horses’ legs will often fill up due to suppressed circulation, but go down after exercise. After a massage a horse’s veins are easy to see and the coat is glossy. Increasing circulation also stimulates the elimination of waste products in the system. Exercise is the best way to increase the circulation; however, some horses are on a controlled exercise regime whilst convalescing. For these horses, massage is used to stimulate the circulatory system when necessary.

Provides comfort to injured muscles
Under the veterinary supervision as part of a rehabilitation process following muscle injury and after the initial healing time, massage, stretching and proper exercise can help assist complete healing by reducing the amount of scar tissue and can help restore the muscle.
