“…A limited number of studies have been carried out into horse and rider posture and asymmetry, with much of what has been done using video analysis (Byström, Rhodin, von Peinen, Weishaupt & Roepstorff 2009;Symes & Ellis 2009;Kang et al 2010) or saddle pressure testing (Peham et al 2010). All these authors suggest the need for further studies.…”

“…In horse riding, stirrups generally support the weight of the legs and not the body weight (Kang et al, 2010). However, in this study, instructors let the rider stand and sit (as much as possible with the heel down), thereby repeatedly supporting the body weight on the stirrups.…”

This study examined the effect of therapeutic horseback riding in children with spastic cerebral palsy. Participants were placed in a therapeutic riding (TR) group (n=7) or physical therapy (PT) group (n=7). This study was then conducted for 30 minutes, twice a week, for 8 weeks. The gross motor function measure (GMFM), range of motion (ROM), and spasticity test (ST) were analyzed pre-test (TR0 and PT0), mid-test (TR1 and PT1), and post-test (TR2 and PT2). We used the SPSS 12.0 statistical software for data analysis. We observed significant changes in GMFM Dimension C (crawling and kneeling), D (standing), and E (walking, running, and jumping) between TR2 and TR0 (P < 0.05). In the control group, GMFM Dimension B (sitting) and E showed significant changes between PT2 compared to PT0 (P < 0.05). In future studies we will consider using a therapeutic riding program for the treatment of children with disorders.

“…Only one study was found mentioning this posture, measuring only 7 degrees of dorsiflexion in his subjects. 22 Unfortunately, no comment was made if this was a heel below the horizontal (what the instructor is asking for) or tibia forward over a flat foot (traditional cavalry teaching). The only paper found discussing why this posture creates more potential for injury, through its effect on stability is by Pilato.…”

“…11 During the same time span, 20.07%, 29.07% and 16.68% of all injuries were to the head, upper, and lower extremity, respectively in the NEISS data. 11 For ages [15][16][17][18][19][20][21][22][23][24]4.7% of injuries were to the head, 5.06% were to the upper extremity (shoulder, elbow, lower arm, wrist, upper arm, hand) and 3.86 % were to the lower extremity (knee, lower leg, ankle, foot, upper leg). 11 With regard to mechanism of injury (MOI), falling is the most commonly reported mechanism with manual labor related to the upkeep of the animal/facilities also contributing.…”

ATC€, Drussila Malavase Co-Chair ASTM F08.55 Equestrian Safety¥ Monroe Community College ‡, State University New York; Brockport€, Equestrian Safety¥ Purpose: Equestrian sports are known to have a high risk and rate of injury. While there is injury data available on acute injuries in the equestrian population, it is of a general nature. Within that data appears to be a lack of information on the collegiate equestrian athlete. Thus, the purpose of the current study and this analysis is to describe the incidence of upper and lower extremity injuries and head injuries, sans concussion, in intercollegiate equestrian athlete. Method: A survey was developed with input from each author and implemented in Mach forms. It was sent to 43 equestrian coaches in the Eastern United States who passed it on to their athletes. We estimated 753 athletes would have access to the survey and had a total of 73 respondents. Descriptive statistics were calculated for total number of injuries for each injury category. Results: Detailed injury information on the upper and lower extremity and head is found in tables 1-10. The upper and lower extremity and head accounted for 15.97, 60.35 and 4.33 percent respectively of the injuries in this group of athletes. Conclusions and Recommendations: The current study is amongst the first, if not the first, to report specifically on injury patterns and frequency in US collegiate equestrian athletes. The data indicate that there is an extremely high incidence of injury in the collegiate equestrian population. The lower extremity is particularly susceptible to injury in the equestrian athletes. The lack of data available in a sport, which can be classified as collision and has the potential for significant, long-standing disability from an early age due to interaction with the horse, is troubling. Significantly more sport specific research is needed to improve the health and safety of these athletes.
