Body soreness is a common problem in performing horses. Body aches are often caused by musculoskeletal injuries due to improper training, competition or other performance work. From a Traditional Chinese Medicine view, pain results from energy blockage called Qi stagnation. The key to relieving the body soreness is promoting the free flow of Qi and resolving stagnation.
