The Western Horse's Pain-Free Back and Saddle-Fit Book
991301
The Western Horse's Pain-Free Back and Saddle-Fit Book: Soundness and Comfort with Back Analysis and Correct Use of Saddles and Pads.

Is your horse working happily with a free back? This new title from Joyce Harman, DVM, MRCVS, is a text long past due. Here at TheHorseStudio.com we have her DVD of the same title - and this book provides a valuable in depth addition to that work.

Topics include evaluating saddle problems, facets of saddle construction, correct fit and position on the horse, stabilizing rider balance and seat, sensible use of pads and shims, measuring the horse's back, accommodating multiple horses, fitting challenging conformation types, finding a saddle, caring for the horse's back.

Joyce Harman has so many credentials it's hard to list them all. A summary? Aside from her vet qualifications includes her present work on a masters degree in Chinese medicine, certified in acupuncture for eighteen years, chiro work for fourteen years, and homeopathy and herbal medicine since then. She has published over 40 papers in veterinary medicine and lectures worldwide on saddle fit both English and Western. Her tireless work has benefited horses and riders too numerous to mention and TheHorseStudio. com Team applauds her work for the benefit of the horse.

TheHorseStudio.com review: There are lots of very valuable insights here and tips galore. Info on tasks such as washing a cotton cinch without shrinkage to the child rider and special pointers. The diagnostic advice is very thorough, and the section on conformational issues and the challenges faced is sure to be rewarding when read and applied. Both horse and rider will be less frustrated, the horse sounder and the rider's position and aids enhanced with the right saddle. Well worth the read and very nicely laid out with high quality photographs and clear illustrations. Don't forget to check out Joyce Harmans' DVDs on both Western and English Saddle Fit. We also have the rider's pain free back book in stock here at TheHorseStudio.com and customers have praised the book highly.
