Cold backed Sunny fell over when his girth was tightened. His owner called the vet who diagnosed a sore back and referred for physio. I have seen him three times and at first he was extremely sore with a lot of muscle spasm. With physiotherapy, including massage, stretches and joint mobilisation, his pain has improved and his rider has gradually re introduced ridden work after lunge work. They are now free to carry on increasing his work so very soon he should be back to normal.
