Brown, who works specifically with horses and riders to improve performance and prevent repetitive strain injuries, has developed a unique approach to therapeutic intervention and movement re-training with a focus on the equestrian athlete. Brown has been a human physical therapist for 30 years, and seven years ago turned her focus toward treating equines and their partners.
Michele Hundt, the owner of Sho Clothes, was pleased with the turnout at “Shop Talk” and thanked the Gold Coast Dressage Association for supplying the refreshments. “I also want to thank Stacey for her excellent presentation. Stacey has a thorough knowledge of the horse and rider’s anatomy and she always provides an educational seminar,” she said.
Brown uses biomechanical assessment analysis to teach riders how to compensate for injuries. She also specializes in movement analysis and re-training, core activation, sport specific exercise programs, myofascial release, neuromuscular re-education, proprioceptive re-training, strain and counter-strain and other manual therapy techniques, modalities including therapeutic ultrasound, low level laser and electrical stimulation, tack assessment for horse and ride and injury rehabilitation for horse and rider.
“Stacey has spoken at ‘Shop Talk’ before and her presentations are always well received. Last night we had a great group and they were really interested in learning about body adjustments and injury rehabilitation. Everyone asked pertinent questions and walked away with greater knowledge, which is always the goal of ‘Shop Talk’,” Hundt said.
