Article From SubmitYOURArticle.com: Special Spa Treatment as a Reward for Your Horse

It's happened to all of us ' a long, hard week of
work has gotten us down, or the stress in our
lives is getting to be a bit too much. That's
about the time we decide to make an appointment
at the spa. There's no better way to relieve
stress and revel in life than to experience the
luxury of royal treatment at the spa. But what
about your horse? Shouldn't she get a slice of
this luxurious living? There's certainly no
reason a horse shouldn't be able to enjoy a
little bit of spa treatment from time to time.

Keeping a horse is an expensive job and there is
simply no way around it. Bringing in a expert in
horse pampering will only be another (and
sizable) expense. Luckily, if you are prepare to
put in some effort, you can give your horse the
same luxury treatment at the fraction of the cost
by doing it yourself.

The first step is to visit the feed store or
online to get the best horse shampoo your money
can get. It will be expensive, nevertheless, I'm
sure your horse deserves it. When you are there,
take some time to find some quality feed as well.

Start by giving your horse the finest and most
luxurious bath she has ever experienced.
Certainly, many horses are not entirely fond of
being bathed, but take your time and make her as
comfortable as possible. Using the softest hand
and the kindest words, your horse will likely
calm down and begin to enjoy the bath.

You may consider enlisting the help of someone
experienced in giving horses massages. It you do
not know anyone with such expertise, you can
consider checking in with your veterinarian.
Failing that, you can find many excellent books
on the subject. Getting an equine chiropractor
is a good enough replacement. In either case,
your horse will finish the day feeling better and
more limber than she has likely felt in a long
time.

Bring up her food when the session ends and maybe
add a treat as well. You can also let your horse
out to graze and run around to experience the
rewards of that massage or chiropractic session.
Hopefully, she can feel much younger.

If your horse is used in any sort of competition,
the spa treatment may be the perfect reward for a
job well done. Even if you did not win your
event, remember that a horse goes through quite a
lot for you and always deserves a reward. The
spa treatment can become a regular luxury if your
pocket book will allow it, but remember that such
things as massage and chiropractic adjustment are
not permanent.

If you continue to ride your horse, the same
muscles will likely knot up or the same joints
will again drop out of alignment. One of the
best things that you can do for your horse is to
pick up the skills of massaging for her. Your
horse will no doubt thank you for all the rewards.
