Post-Rodeo Recovery: How to Help Your Horse Bounce Back Faster

After a long weekend of hauling, running, turning, and stopping hard, your horse deserves the best care to recover quickly and stay sound for the next run. Post-rodeo recovery is critical to maintaining long-term performance and preventing injury. Here’s how you can help your horse bounce back faster using Rodeo Road Essentials.

1. Cool Down Properly
Walk your horse after the run to gradually bring the heart rate down. Cooling down helps flush out lactic acid and reduces the risk of muscle stiffness.

2. Apply Herbal Liniment Spray
Our natural liniment spray helps soothe tired muscles and joints. Spray it along the back, legs, and shoulders for fast-absorbing, cooling relief. It’s great for travel days too.

3. Use a Poultice Overnight
Wrap those hardworking legs in our herbal poultice to draw out heat, reduce inflammation, and support circulation. Our products can be wrapped or left unwrapped with great results—we simply recommend wrapping for more chronic or stubborn issues to enhance effectiveness.

4. Hydration & Nutrition
Ensure your horse has access to clean water and a balanced diet. Consider adding our probiotic support to help maintain gut health under stress.

5. Let Them Rest
A little turnout time or stall rest goes a long way. Combine rest with red light therapy for added muscle repair and relaxation.

Your horse gives you everything in the arena—make sure they recover like a champion. Shop the full recovery line at Rodeo Road Essentials.
