Facilities

The yard has good road links whilst being situated in a quiet, rural location on the outskirts of the City of Lincoln. With a good daily routine and a lack of hustle and bustle around the yard, horses generally tend to settle in quickly to their new environment. The barn is light and airy, giving a real feeling of space to each of the stables and has a small undercover yard area at one end.

We have an infrared therapy solarium, with 12 quartz infrared bulbs, 6 dual-action fans for superfast drying or cooling and dimmers alllowing the user full control of the heat and brightness. We also have a hot horse shower for post workout washdowns. 

Currently, we have a mobile Halotherapy unit also equipped with a infrared therapy solarium, with 4 quartz infrared bulbs, with a dimmer allowing heat ajustments, and cooling fans, which can be used with either the solarium or with the Halotherapy on warmer days to ensure your horses maximum comfort levels during treatment. Further plans are in place for a purpose built salt room in the barn.   

The floodlit arena at the back of the barn provides a sand and fibre surface for rehabilitation along with a seperate lunging pen. Turnout is on an individual basis, with access to a small turnout paddock for those who are on restricted free exercise. 

Surrounding Area

The roads around the yard are generally quite quiet and most drivers are very respectful when they approach and pass. Therefore we are lucky to be able to hack out without boxing up. Hacking out provides a great aspect to rehabilitation, making particularly the walk work more interesting.  

Paddocks

We have a strict paddock management system here at Branston Rehab, to ensure fields are not in constant use all year round. As part of this we have a worming programme in place and require all horses that stay with us to be up to date with their worming.
