Kissing spines

Kissing spines is a condition where the spinous processes of the vertebrae in the back get too close together or touch. This causes pain, stiffness and restriction of movement. Horses with kissing spines often show reduced performance, difficulty bending, tension in the back and sometimes behavioural changes under saddle.

The condition often results from long-term overuse, a weak topline, improper training or age-related wear and tear. Medical supervision and appropriate management are always essential
