Frequently Asked Questions

Please email me at luisa@nurovaequine.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Yes! Both modalities I offer help to maintain muscle suppleness making them less prone to injury. Enhancing range of motion, promoting tissue repair, improving circulation, reducing muscle tension, supports optimal physical function. Hofmag treatments also support faster recovery after exercise, indeed many professional riders use the device between training sessions to regenerate and recover.

  


100% yes! Hofmag PEMF therapy can accelerate rehabilitation of tendon / ligament injury working at cellular level to support the body's own healing processes and endorphin release. Hofmag is also proven to reduce pain and inflammation, promoting tissue repair. Older horses with stiffness associated with arthritis and other conditions can be greatly improved by releasing tension and improving range of motion / movement.


For the best results, I find the ideal location is somewhere not too busy or with too many distractions. This can be your horses stable, or tied securely outside. Please ensure there is access for the Hofmag trolley if in a stable.


If you have booked a Hofmag session, you can ride before or after, in fact there are many benefits to riding after a Hofmag session, and recovery is improved if it is done after riding.

Bodywork is different in that it works best on cold muscles. If you have to ride after the session, my advice is to not do anything too strenuous for the horse, a gentle ride is ok. 

It is much better to let them process the treatment (turn out is ideal).


If your horse is reactive or sensitive then I understand having a lick or haynet can be useful. This is not an issue for a Hofmag treatment but for Bodywork I advise not letting the horse eat as this can distract from the tension release. 


Hofmag K8 Device is FEI permitted. It is also used by many elite professional riders during competitions to keep the horse relaxed between rounds. 


For Horse Owners

General Maintenance

Recovery / Rehabilitation

Whether you are a happy hacker, school regularly or head out to compete, your horse will benefit from regular bodywork sessions by keeping their muscles supple and tension free. You may already have regular equine physio or chiro sessions but adding integrated bodywork can help keep things nice & supple between these sessions.

If your horse has had time off due to injury or just a break over the winter, you can use either treatment modality to support bringing them back to work. 

If your horse is currently injured, first always consult your vet to check that they are happy for your horse to receive Hofmag or bodywork treatments, but science shows the acceleration of recovery with regular Hofmag sessions.

 Nurova Equine therapies are designed to support the high physical and neurological demands of sport horses by addressing tension that can limit movement quality and performance. 

Using light-touch bodywork techniques and Hofmag PEMF therapy, sessions encourage relaxation of the nervous system and release of restrictive tension patterns. This can support greater suppleness, improved stride quality, and more efficient biomechanics, helping the horse perform comfortably and consistently across disciplines.

 Elite training and competition schedules place cumulative strain on the musculoskeletal system. Nurova Equine therapies focus on supporting recovery and ongoing soundness by helping the horse transition out of sympathetic “fight or flight” responses into a more relaxed parasympathetic state. Hofmag PEMF therapy may support circulation and cellular function, while gentle bodywork promotes comfort and ease of movement. Regular sessions can form part of a preventative maintenance programme, complementing veterinary, physiotherapy, and farriery care to help minimise compensatory patterns and support longevity in sport.
