ONLINE LECTURE SERIES DESCRIPTION

Neck problems are commonly encountered in horses of all ages, but especially in middle-aged and older animals, have debilitating consequences and only a limited number of treatment options exist. This lecture series covers the cervical anatomy, joint motion and how to use passive stretches to rehabilitate horses affected by neck conditions. A team consisting of a world-renowned sports medicine and rehabilitation specialist and an equine physiotherapist will be exchanging notes on how they personally approach such challenging cases, when and how they use rehabilitation modalities and what exercises they recommend by extensively discussing cases.

Lee is a Chartered Physiotherapist qualifying in 1997 from the University of Teesside in the UK. He worked in the NHS for 2 years whist training to become a Chartered Animal Physiotherapist, graduating in 1999 as a Cat A member of ACPAT. He then completed a 2-year postgraduate course in manual therapy/sports at Glasgow University in 2001. Lee has completed numerous other courses in many different techniques such as Acupuncture, Laser Therapy, Neurology, Kinesiotaping, Saddle Fitting and Manipulation. In 2011 Lee was appointed the Official Team Physiotherapist for the British Equestrian Team responsible for treating the horses and riders and has worked at numerous European and World Equestrian Games including WEG 2014. In 2012 he was selected to be one of the physiotherapists at the London 2012 Olympic Games providing treatment for horses travelling from all over the world to compete. Lee now continues to combine human and equine work, dividing time equally between Darlington Physiotherapy and Sport Injury clinic specialising in the treatment of riders, and The Equine Physiotherapy Clinic which specialises in rehabilitating horses after serious injury.
