| A
Bit About The Cardiovascular System |
| Your
horses cardiovascular system is a circularatory system that serves to
maintain a constant flow and supply of blood through body organs, tissues
and cells. |
| The
bloods arrival and passing through of every body cell delivers fresh
supplies of oxygen and nutrients essential for the good health, tissue repair,
cell production and cell renewal for the survival of every body cell. |
| The
blood flow delivers
hormones and antibodies
needed for various body responses as
well as positively enhancing the good health of the immune
system. |
| When
Problems Develop. |
| An
ineffective blood flow can promote many negative influences such as: |
| Weak
and vulnerable body cells lacking essential nutrients and oxygen. |
| Stiff,
sore and painful muscles left to house excessive levels of lactic
acid and toxins leaving them in an inferior level of health and working
ability. |
| Co-working
muscles and tendons of sore muscles will by the law of 'cause and effect' experience excessive levels of stress. |
| Co-working
systems of the cardiovascular system will by the law of 'cause and effect''
experience an impaired working ability. |
| The
horses overall ability to fight off various infections or diseases becomes
inhibited. |
| Carbon
dioxide is not efficiently transported to the lungs for expulsion |
| Relationship
Between Massage and The Cardiovascular System |
| A
healthy cardiovascular system positively benefits its co-working systems
such as the nervous system, digestive
system, respiratory system, endocrine
system and lymphatic system. |
| Equine
massage therapy assists the cardiovascular system and the nervous
system to maintain their normal fluctuations of blood pressure. Subsequently, when
an excitable horse with higher levels of adrenaline receives a calming
massage he will experience involuntarily feelings of calm as his
adrenaline is dispersed and no longer produced. This helps to maintain his
calm psyche for some time after. |
| Equine
massage therapy assists the delivery of oxygen and nutrients to the body
tissues through the stimulated blood flow. |
| The
delivery of hormones and immune cells to the body
tissues through the stimulated blood flow is enhanced. |
