Balance & Support Hoof Care Services in Southwest Florida

Targeted hoof balance and support care designed to improve comfort, movement, and long-term soundness for horses across Southwest Florida.

Balance and support hoof care focuses on how the hoof, limb, and body work together. Proper balance helps horses move more freely, stay comfortable, and reduce unnecessary strain over time.

What This Service Includes

Balance & Support

Balance and support hoof care is focused on improving how a horse carries weight and moves. Even small imbalances in the hoof can affect comfort, posture, and overall movement.

This service is often used for horses that show uneven wear, stiffness, changes in movement, or added stress from workload, age, or conformation. Each horse is carefully evaluated to understand where adjustments are needed.

The goal is to support natural movement, improve stability, and help the horse stay comfortable during daily activity and work.

What to Expect During a Balance & Support Hoof Care Visit

What to Expect

Evaluation of Hoof Balance and Alignment

 Each visit begins with a detailed assessment of hoof balance and alignment. This helps identify areas that may be affecting comfort or movement.

Observation of Movement and Stance

 We watch how the horse stands and moves to understand weight distribution and where additional support may help.

Support Adjustments Based on Individual Needs

 Adjustments are made based on the horse’s movement, workload, and condition to improve balance and stability.

Clear Communication with Owners

 We explain what we see, what adjustments are made, and how balance and support care can help your horse move more comfortably.

Why It’s Important

Why Balance & Support Is Important

When hooves are not balanced, extra stress can be placed on joints, tendons, and muscles. Over time, this can lead to discomfort or changes in movement.

Balance and support hoof care helps reduce uneven stress, encourages smoother movement, and supports long-term soundness. This type of care is especially helpful for horses that are aging, increasing their workload, or showing signs of uneven wear.

In Southwest Florida, footing and terrain can change often, making regular balance evaluation an important part of hoof care.
