Anyone who's delt with rehabilitating a horse with muscle atrophy come hither. What is the best way to rehabilitate a horse with this? This would be a left butt muscle. Tore the muscle a yr ago or so.

can you get your hands on a TENS unit or a nerve stimulator?? that would be my guess.

Although I wouldn't be shocked if it just didn't come back.

my vet suggested a TENS unit when I had a horse develop atrophy from EPM. I didn't end up finding one, and it filled in as we treated her for EPM.
