Girthiness — is it always ulcers, or is that simply what everyone assumes?

Ever stopped to think about what happens when the body’s biochemistry is no longer functioning as nature intended?

When metabolism becomes derailed, nutrients no longer properly reach the tissues. And when tissues are not nourished correctly, the entire body starts compensating.

Think of a chain of dominoes.

One disruption creates another.

Now let’s talk fascia, tendons, ligaments, bone, connective tissue, and the endocrine system that keeps the body functioning as it should.

What happens when the fascia loses softness and glide?

The tissue becomes tight.
The muscles become tight.
The horse enters compensation patterns.

Often this develops into top line dysfunction. The hyoid becomes affected, fascial chains tighten, and the horse struggles to move freely through the body.

Many of these horses remain trapped in natural crookedness:
• the right hip slightly dropped
• the back hollowed or guarded
• excess loading through the left shoulder and left wither
• tightness through the left side of the neck
• strain through the left TMJ
• twisting through the hyoid and jaw musculature

Now add the fact that nerves, blood vessels, and lymphatics are all embedded within connective tissue.

If that tissue becomes tight, inflamed, dehydrated, or poorly nourished, the body cannot function or regenerate efficiently.

That creates discomfort.

So maybe… just maybe… girthiness is not always “just ulcers.”

Maybe it is the body expressing a much deeper systemic dysfunction.

If you are at a loss and look to tie up some dots give me a message 🫶🏻
