Equine ConTact CARE is listed as a wellness centre at 560 Waiwhero Rd, Ngatimoti, in the Tasman district, with a Google rating of 5.0. By its name, it provides care for horses, so check what it offers before you get in touch.
A good equine care or bodywork practitioner starts by assessing your horse, asking about its history, work, diet, any injuries and what you have noticed, and by watching how it moves. Treatments such as massage, stretching or other bodywork are complementary, and do not replace veterinary care, so see your vet first for lameness, sudden changes in behaviour or any suspected injury, and ask whether the practitioner works with your vet. Ask about training and experience, how long a session takes, how often follow-ups are needed and whether the practitioner travels to your property, since many do. Regulars prepare their horse by making sure it is calm, clean and in a safe, flat spot, and they follow aftercare advice on rest and exercise.
For horse owners in Ngatimoti and around the Tasman district, Equine ConTact CARE is worth contacting to ask what is offered and where it travels.
