No idea how I ended up here , I have no nor had any horses , ever. This is just awesome watching the great beautiful creature get release from pain. I can't be the only one who sees this carrying over to humans, its become , somewhere along the way "Pharmaceuticals first" for humans and animals. Sure , they have a place but good gosh. Look at your dad ,mom or grandparents, how many pills they take a day? When the reality is , nothing was tried prior to " take this pill".. I don't think I articulated my thoughts very well but ,it sure seems to me we have a epidemic of Pharmaceutical abuse and not just the addictive ones.
I think we can do better by our horses. This is a great example understanding behavior, listening to our horses, and learn to have an educated eye. I also think we can prevent a lot of this by slowing things down when it comes to training young horses. Teach them self carriage on the ground and not back them so young. We now know that the horse’s spine (which is suspended and has no supports except on each end) is the last to develop at the approximate age of eight years. We also know that a three year old horse is like a nine year old child (yrs x3) so we need to think about that when we are working with these young minds. We also know that their mouth is like our hand. They like to put their mouth on things just like a child wants to touch and feel things. And male horses are especially mouthy they are just being like little boys it’s their nature for quite a few years , then it tends to wear off as they mature. Definitely interesting thank you!
Notice each time the Dr. Manipulated the fascia the horse would drop his head , blow, lick and chew, yawn... Very good signs of relief, adrenal release and at the end his head went completely down and the difference in how relaxed he was at stretching downward into his neck muscles. Way Cool 🔥
I just took on a four year old OTTB that flipped in a wash rack and broke his withers as a two year old with similar issues that were never treated. This video couldn't have come at a better time to help me with ways to make him more comfortable.
Love what I saw, and also stressing look at behaviour is normally cause by discomfort. As a Bowen Therpiast this has given me another tool in my toolbox working with horses.
This is so informative! Great instruction for us regular horse owners. My OTTB has the exact issues as Pi does and I'm looking forward to trying them on him. Thank you!
Wow, I never knew any of this kind of pain cause/release existed. You've opened my eyes to explore what may be causing gating issues with my big 3yr old filly trotter. THANK YOU DR JIM👍😊
My brood made I purchased recently had an injury to the face/ neck about 6 months before I bought her. She ran into a tree at a run/slip according to her previous owner. She is the most gentle horse but has a complete aversion to turning to the right. I don’t force it, try neck flexion exercises but can tell she’s in pain on that side. I’m being patient and won’t risk doing further damage. She was seen by a vet for treatment after her injury according to the previous owner.
The website listed doesn’t seem to be working. Is there a source to find more information from Dr. Jim? As a very visual learner, this was incredibly informative. Thank you for sharing!
Unfortunately, Dr Jim is now mostly retired. He has endorsed me to attempt to carry on his legacy, so I will try to continue making more videos! No one can compare to Jim, but I’ll try my damndest!!
My horse has exactly the same reaction and impressions as yours. he is nippy and figiting, with tension on the pole, neck wither area! I will try it tonight to see if can help him. Thanks do much for the video
Holy Cow what great information . . Thank you for asking the Question What is the origin . . . just by chance I did a stretch on front leg to my guy last week when grooming- - no reason except looking for ROM . . since then he has been more responsive to my requests on ground . .hmm I will do more and do the jar lid too he is very tight on RT hind as well . . Thank you
Pi is being a very good boy! The rope nibbling is a way to diffuse excess tension in a socially acceptable way because walking away isn’t an option. His incisors look a bit unusual, does he have any bite or occlusion issues? Just curious, not being judgmental 😊
Anyone can get a pen cap and scrape along areas of the horses body while pushing down and any horse is going to flinch and or react, this is not an acceptable reliable method of finding areas of soreness and or tension in the horse's body. A horse can feel a fly land on their body and react/shake it off.
Was wondering if there’s possible toxic release with this. as in humans myofascial release massage can cause severe toxic reaction. You feel like crap sometimes tired for a while maybe less than 20 hours.
What are requirements to give horse massage for pay in California? I am a certified massage therapist ( since 2004 ) for humans, and a tai chi & zhan zhuang qigong practitioner since 1989 which i also provide lessons in. And want to include massaging horses, but unclear what is required to do so and be paid for it. I saw a horse massage course for about $250 ( which is a lot less cost than the human massage programs Ive taken ) but there was no clarification whats required education and certification wise for giving massages as a profession.
Hi! 👋 Long time client of Dr Jim, and trying to carry on his legacy by working on horses for my own clients -- Any of the tension you see could cause a bitting issue. It is all related!
Hi my friend has a horse that I'd badly head flicking and been diagnosed with Trigeminal Neuralgia. They have suggested it be euthanized as little is know about successful treatment. I just cant let this go and I'm looking for ansers and advice on what to try or do.
Dr. Jim -Thank you! I will put these lessons to work tomorrow. Excellent video and great patient to demo with. One small comment to the negative (sorry)...The interviewer kept interupting the vet and seemed to be trying to upstage him. How odd and frankly, rude
Poor horse. Crazy calming signals going on while he's trying to patiently wait to be listened to! Tricky situation to be able to get this video for teaching purposes but detrimental to horses mental health.
We need more Dr. Jim videos PLEASE ❤
Wish I could learn more from this Dr..I watched this around 15 times
Amazing video. Thank you Scott and Dr. Jim.

Definitely saw the softness in his eye, WOW

I tried these on my mare last night and her neck popped the whole way down! I know I didn’t do them perfect but it definitely helped her!
I wish we knew about these methods when I was younger. Our horses would have been so much happier.

Excellent video. So much info and a real expert talking. Would love to see more!
So, so so grateful to have seen this video. I wish I could do a course with Dr. Jim. Thank you for sharing. Ann.
WOW! This vet really knows this subject. Amazing

Fantastic do you offer training?
This is fantastic information!! Thank you so much! I need to learn more ❤
This is fantastic. Thank you for sharing. Thank you Dr Jim.
Loved the video and am obsessed with Pi! Absolutely adorable😍 Heading out to the barn now to give some of the techniques a try on my boys. Thank you!
And watching Pie relax his mouth after Dr Jim started adjusting was fascinating!
Love what I saw, and also stressing look at behaviour is normally cause by discomfort. As a Bowen Therpiast this has given me another tool in my toolbox working with horses.
Woow, Thank you.
Now i now why my horse doesn't get any better.
He has his groundproblem in his right hind and he is so tense.
I WILL TRY THIS 🙏🍀
This is so informative! Great instruction for us regular horse owners. My OTTB has the exact issues as Pi does and I'm looking forward to trying them on him. Thank you!
Did it help?
Absolutely loved this video! Thank you so much! :)

Great tool for my box!! Thank you for sharing!
Thank you Dr. Jim and Pi. Excellent.

You're welcome
Love this information!
I really enjoyed learning about this. Thank you!
Oh my gosh that was fascinating!!!
Thank you very very helpful
I wish I could find more with Dr. Jim. I checked the site that was mentioned throughout this video but that site isn't valid anymore.

Oh I love this kind of bodywork ❤ just amazing !
how does one contact Dr Jim ???? have rescue horse in dire need.

This is amazing to see! Thank you
How often should you do this with a young horse?
Great video, thanks for sharing!
Just listen to your horse. That is the key to a healthy relationship 💕🦄🙏🏻
Brilliant 👏 I want to be a student 😀

Dr. Jim is the best! He’s a hero for horses and their people.
Which is his full name? Thx
@@mafalita Jim Yanchunis (aka Dr. Jim)
Can't seem to find any website or more info on him
@@timcoryell4494 he has recently retired. Very missed!
@@paradox_dq5517 is anyone following on his work?
Is it a good idea to do all of these exercises to stretch a horse and prevent pain?
my eyes can't stop focus on his front teeth, I learned that such a smile can cause severe jaw pain
Fascinating!
The origin must be the riding and saddle or teeth. What to do now, to keep him feeling good?
That was very informative. Is it possible for TMJ stiffness/soreness cause a bitting problem?
Hi! 👋 Long time client of Dr Jim, and trying to carry on his legacy by working on horses for my own clients -- Any of the tension you see could cause a bitting issue. It is all related!
Awesome
Amazing thank you for your information
Did this horse have any other issues like kissing spines ? Or was it just a myofascial issue ? Did he perform better after these treatments ?
Where do I find this in Alabama?
What is the tools used by Dr. Jim
What a good explanation !!!!
As he’s talking the horse is biting his belly(in beginning) & mouthing the lead rope. Ulcers ?
This was fascinating. I'm wondering how a horse that didn't have structural issues would respond to those tests?
Hi my friend has a horse that I'd badly head flicking and been diagnosed with Trigeminal Neuralgia. They have suggested it be euthanized as little is know about successful treatment. I just cant let this go and I'm looking for ansers and advice on what to try or do.
Hi 😊. Anyone got contact info for Dr. Jim? I tried the website and drew a blank 🤷♀️
Wonderful video, thank you. How are thing going now Scott, one year later? Did the mouth play subside?
Going great and yes it did!
So where can we find more from Dr. Jim?
Unfortunately, the URL doesn't works. What is his complete name?
With how he's working his mouth I'm wondering if he needs a hyoid release...
Have a horse just like that and did a hyoid release as seen on line and got fantastic results
That’s excellent!
When he suggested Scott would think about his hypothetical castration for a long time I burst out laughing. I’m sure I’m not alone here.
This man IS AMAZING!!!
What is he using to test and rub or what can I use?
Je veux apprendre à faire ça !!!
How often is repetitive? Daily, weekly, monthly. Can it be worked after this if this is not daily?
He said before and after working. Everytime.😀
@@TSeeker1 oh yes, i had watched snippets and heard that after I watched it all the way through. Thanks!
@@etbtravelphotography Sure!😀
Don't they have a save button anymore?
mind blown
This horse is very social isn't he?
Dr. Jim -Thank you! I will put these lessons to work tomorrow. Excellent video and great patient to demo with. One small comment to the negative (sorry)...The interviewer kept interupting the vet and seemed to be trying to upstage him. How odd and frankly, rude
He was not the " interviewer", he was the owner asking questions!
I’m sure they don’t play this great info video in vet schools! Lol oh mares rule!
eye opener
Always enjoy these videos. Miss being onsite
👌
Poor horse. Crazy calming signals going on while he's trying to patiently wait to be listened to! Tricky situation to be able to get this video for teaching purposes but detrimental to horses mental health.
18:05 the teeth look quite sharp
Amazing
what's the little tool he is using to test with?
The cap of a needle lol
I wished he’s near me
Stop cutting the doctor off
