Showing at Prince George’s this fall? 🏆

Interested in getting on my schedule? Request a session through the link in my bio or text me directly. 🤍

Next Stride Wellness is local to PGEC, and I’ll be available for on-site PEMF + Red Light Therapy sessions throughout the upcoming shows!

As a hunter/jumper myself, I know just how much we ask of our horses during a show week. Between schooling, warm-ups, multiple trips to the ring, long days and travel, keeping them feeling their best is always a priority.

PEMF + Red Light can be incorporated before competition, after competition, or throughout the show to support performance, recovery and overall wellness.

Wishing you all a safe & successful indoors season! 🤍🐴✨

EQUINE ANATOMY SERIES • 01 🐴
Distal Forelimb Soft Tissue Anatomy

Here's what's actually happening under your horse's skin when you run your hand down their leg 👇🏼

🤍 Superficial Digital Flexor Tendon (SDFT)
The most superficial tendon on the back of the cannon bone. Flexes the pastern and fetlock joints.

🤍 Deep Digital Flexor Tendon (DDFT)
Sits deeper than the SDFT and travels all the way into the hoof, attaching to the coffin bone.

🤍 Suspensory Ligament
Starts high on the back of the cannon bone and splits into branches lower down. Helps stabilize the fetlock joint.

🤍 Extensor Branch of the Suspensory Ligament
Peels off the suspensory ligament and wraps toward the front of the leg, joining the extensor tendon.

🤍 Superficial Distal Sesamoidean Ligament
Continues down from the sesamoid bones. Helps prevent the fetlock joint from overextending.

💡 The suspensory ligament and SDFT both act like springs, storing and releasing energy with every stride. In a galloping Thoroughbred, strain on the SDFT can reach up to 16%.

💬 Have you ever dealt with an injury to one of these soft tissue structures?🐴

With indoors and finals on the horizon, every ride, every haul, and every round adds up.

As the season ramps up, don't forget to make recovery part of your horse's program. Supporting your horse between shows can be just as important as the training itself.

PEMF and red light therapy are complementary wellness modalities and are not a substitute for veterinary diagnosis or treatment.

No one person keeps a horse healthy and performing at their best. It takes a team.

Behind every happy horse is a network of dedicated professionals and owners who all bring something valuable to the table. I’m grateful that Next Stride Wellness gets to work alongside talented veterinarians, farriers, chiropractors, trainers, nutritionists, bodyworkers, and, most importantly, committed owners who put their horses first.

I believe every horse deserves individualized care.

That’s why I take the time to understand each horse before, during, and after every session. Every appointment is tailored to the horse in front of me and includes personalized observations and session notes, so you leave with a better understanding of your horse.

Did you know that stress affects more than just your horse's behavior?

When a horse experiences ongoing stress, tension, discomfort, or even intense training, their nervous system can remain in a heightened "fight or flight" state. Over time, this can influence muscle tension, recovery, willingness to relax, and overall comfort.

PEMF supports healthy circulation and normal cellular function. One of the benefits many owners notice is that horses are able to settle into a more relaxed state after a session. This shift toward the parasympathetic nervous system, often called the "rest and recover" state, is where the body is best able to recover, repair, and recharge.

Every horse responds differently, but supporting the nervous system can play an important role in both performance and long term wellness. Whether your horse is preparing for competition, recovering from exercise, or simply enjoying retirement, giving their body the opportunity to recover can make all the difference.

Curious if PEMF could benefit your horse? I'd love to chat about your horse's goals and create a wellness plan that's right for them. Send me a message to get started. 🤍🐴

Something new is coming... 🐴

I'm so excited to finally share something I've been working on behind the scenes! Over the next few weeks, I'll be launching the Next Stride Wellness Equine Anatomy Series, where we'll break down equine anatomy into simple, practical information for horse owners and riders.

A huge thank you to for creating these beautiful custom illustrations and bringing my vision to life. I couldn't be happier with how they turned out.

I can't wait to start sharing them with you! What anatomy topic would you like to see first? 👇

🚨Studies on photobiomodulation (Red Light Therapy) in animals have shown it may help support tissue repair and the body's natural inflammatory response in horses, dogs, and cats. 🚨

One veterinary review found that red and near-infrared light helped improve wound healing, reduce pain, and support recovery from tendon injuries, particularly in performance horses and post-surgical patients. Researchers believe this occurs because the light stimulates mitochondrial activity, increasing cellular energy (ATP) production and providing cells with more energy to carry out normal repair processes.

At Next Stride Wellness, I use the ROC 10-watt shielded Red Light Therapy device. Unlike most red light devices, the ROC is specifically designed to be used simultaneously with MagnaWave PEMF without signal interference, allowing both therapies to complement one another during the same session. Its cordless, quiet design also makes treatments more comfortable for horses and other animals that may be sensitive to noise or bulky equipment.

Every full-body MagnaWave PEMF session at Next Stride Wellness includes targeted ROC Red Light Therapy at no additional cost, when appropriate for the individual animal.

Disclaimer: While research supports the potential benefits of photobiomodulation in veterinary medicine, outcomes vary depending on the condition, treatment protocol, and individual animal. Red light therapy is intended to complement veterinary care. It is not a substitute for veterinary diagnosis, treatment, or medical advice.

It’s hard to believe it’s already been one week since we said goodbye to Evie.

Evie was a beloved member of our family for nearly nine years. No matter how many years we're lucky enough to have with the animals we love, it never feels like enough.

Over the past few months, I was grateful to be able to support her comfort alongside her veterinary care. While no therapy can change every outcome, having the opportunity to help keep her comfortable during her final months brought me peace. Wellness isn’t about promising more time. It’s about helping animals feel their best and supporting their quality of life through every stage.

Thank you to everyone who has reached out with kind messages and support over the past week. If I’ve been a little slower to respond, I truly appreciate your patience and understanding.

Hug your pets a little tighter tonight. 🤍
