Sacroiliac joint symptoms
The sacroiliac joint is a very small joint that is held together only by ligaments, not by muscles. The sacroiliac joint is also known as the motor of the hindquarters because it is largely responsible for transmitting power from the hindquarters. If the mobility of the sacroiliac joint is disturbed, this also reduces the thrust of the hindquarters. This can have a major impact on the horse’s rideability, strength and balance. The sacroiliac joint can also cause lameness. If the sacroiliac joint is blocked, it is absolutely essential to create a therapy and training plan in order to correct the imbalances caused by the blockage.
Behandlung mit dem NOVAFON
Neben dem Gelenk selbst spielen vor allem die zugehörige Muskulatur und die Triggerpunkte eine Rolle. Mit dem NOVAFON kann aber die gesamte Kaumuskulatur unterstützend behandelt werden, um die muskuläre Dysbalance auszugleichen und die Bewegungseinschränkungen zu reduzieren.
Treatment with NOVAFON
With the NOVAFON, the entire back musculature can be treated supportively. You should treat the overloaded side with the NOVAFON set to level 2, and the other side with level 1. Treatment with the NOVAFON should last a total of 10 – 15 minutes and can be repeated daily. The intensity setting should be individually adapted to each horse, as every horse perceives the vibration very differently. Always treat both sides..

Step 1 — Stroking the back muscles
In the first step, set the device to vibration level 1 or level 2 and use the disc attachment on the marked area. You can work in either a stroking or continuous circular motion. The direction of treatment plays a subordinate role – pay more attention to whether the horse is relaxe d and is allowing its muscles to relax. Depending on the condition of the coat, it is recommended that you work in the direction of the coat growth. Treat each side of the face for 2 to 3 minutes.
Step 2 — Treatment of stress points
Use the ball attachment to work directly on the trigger points. It is best to feel for the trigger points with your fingertips at the marked areas. To treat these areas, connect the ball attachment, select Level 2, and adjust the intensity accordingly. Treat the trigger points for about 1 to 2 minutes each, either by applying light pressure without moving or in small circular movements. After this, treat the next sore area.
In der Anwendung einfach und angenehm. Ich habe bisher die besonders beanspruchte Kiefermuskulatur behandelt (Zähne-Knirsch-Problematik). Sehr angenehm und entspannend! (...) Ich nutze es regelmäßig und gern! 1, 2 Anwenderin S., 15.02.2017, NOVAFON power
