SUMCHI Technique uses 4 levels to introduce precisely choreographed SUMCHI strokes. The SUMCHI strokes flow together into easy-to-follow stroke routines which improve the function and balance of the muscle hubs and fascia tension of the equine collagen matrix.

In the context of equine anatomy, the collagen matrix is particularly important for maintaining the health and function of the horse’s musculoskeletal system. It provides tensile strength and resilience to tissues subjected to mechanical stress, such as muscles, tendons, and ligaments, allowing for smooth and efficient movement.

Optimizing the function and balance of the equine collagen matrix is essential for promoting overall performance, preventing injuries, and enhancing horse wellbeing. SUMCHI Technique aims to improve the health and integrity of the collagen matrix through the specific SUMCHI strokes.
