Equine Osteoarthritis: Understanding, Managing & Treating OA in Horses

Understand arthritis, make better decisions, and support your horse long-term.

Has your vet mentioned arthritis and you left the appointment feeling more lost than when you walked in? You're not alone. This course changes that.

Taught by Ciara, a dual-qualified chartered physiotherapist and veterinary physiotherapist with 14 years of clinical experience, this course gives you a clear, practical understanding of osteoarthritis and how to manage it effectively.

What you'll learn:

• Veterinary medications, their differences, and potential risks

• An evidence-based look at supplements, what works and what doesn’t

• Complementary therapies and electrotherapy, separating evidence from hype

• The LAIM System for long-term management
