Welcome back to my channel guys, I hope your having a good weekend.
I have done a Vlog on my horses sacroiliac (SI’s) journey so far, her symptoms and improvements after medicating. Obviously all horses symptom’s are different, but it’s quite nice to compare notes!

She's got a glorious shine on her coat, a sign she's in good form!!
She’s does have a nice coat, and that was before I’d even groomed her. Just wish you wasn’t self sabotaging her recovery at the moment. 🙄🙈
Thank you for sharing about Sienna’s SI joint journey - that’s how I found your channel originally looking for groundwork and anyone else experiencing those weird symptoms that my gelding had too! He is also struggling with stringhalt that is probably full of tension in the psoas muscle under the spine that is close to the SI joint (and got a bit better with the SI injection too!). Wanted to share a little of that too in case it comes up for her too, but hope she can be chill just long enough for that puffy leg to go away. Thank you from CO, USA!
Thank you for mentioning about the psoas muscle I didn’t know much about this but had a quick read up and very interesting.
Hope your chap is on the mend, i think it’s one of the areas that does take a long time to repair & heal.
Oh that mystery leg still. She has been a handful that one,but look how sweet she is ❤ such a happy girl
It is a bit of a mystery. She’s just needs to chill out and let the leg heal. 🙈🙄 No more dancing on the road or in the arena necessary. 😆
@@EJMEQUESTRIAN hahaha ... But lets be realistic, she can't possibly waste time waiting for mystery ailments to heal when there's fun to be had dancing on the roads 😂
Bless you both. I’m so gutted for you, she’s a fab horse and she’s lucky to have come to you. I really believe you can make it..
Thank you, we will get there in the end. ☺️
Thank you for sharing your SI journey. Your girl is beautiful. My ex broodmare has the same issue. Her stifle and SI joint. I began 3 years ago with treatments, she also has othritis issues so receives Pentosan injection twice yearly for that. If I stable her too long, she has the issue of leg swelling. I think it would be better if you could not box rest her after the treatments but let her have a small area that she can move around and walk. I'm not sure if you're able to give her a place to walk in-doors. We don't have as cold winters as you do, the weather is much milder, so allowing my mare to venture and walk around the yard is much easier for me. I believe that you can adjust her food if she needs to be kept in her stable. So she has less energy.
Thank you for your comment, we have a large turnout pen behind her stable, though sadly she can’t spend too much time out there because she just gallops around. Her leg is a separate issue, not due to the stabling. Ideally I’d like to leave her in the turnout pen all day but she just doesn’t want to be there, which is such a shame as it’s lovely.🙈Feed wise, yes agreed with lowering it, she literally is on a handful of chaff and half a cup of balancer just so she can have her supplement. She’s just a naturally high energy girl. 😄
Was your mare originally ridden when you were doing the treatments or was this while she was a Broodmare?
Sienna is so beautiful, I love her coat
They really do love to keep us on our toes.
Hope your okay?
@@EJMEQUESTRIAN I’m hanging in there❤️
Thanks for sharing. my boy had his stifles medicated and improved but since has become shorter choppier again, and on lunge now you have said he would bomb off bucking twisting etc. vets have said from videos that he looks uneven in all legs so kind of writer him off, but I haven't I am training him differently as he is sound on flexion and on lunge, only intermittent uneven. I can't afford to have every going injected but I am wondering if to try his SI, as he does not build muscle at the back end and he does not step nerd etc in canter he throws his head and runs then settles. he is in walk presently doing lots of classical kind of training to get him to stretch out and bend. his back is fine had that scared. I am going into snail owner ship as I feel it will be less stressful than horses, less costly to
Might join you on the snail ownership! So stressful isn’t it. I do think lots of work in walk and trying to teach them to use their back/ body more correctly helps a lot. Keeping my fingers crossed for you.🤞🤞
I actually managed to not watch this video when it was posted. Sorry about that.
I hope Sienna gets better soon.
Thank you, she just needs to stay sensible!
