About Pivot Point of View

Becky Pearson, MPT, LAPT, CERP, has been treating human patients with physical therapy since 1996. She obtained her master’s degree in physical therapy from the University of Findaly, Findlay, Ohio, in 2005 and opened her own private practice in Broken Bow, Nebraska, in 2011. Over the years and seeing the benefits from physical therapy on people, she knew the same techniques could help the equine athletes. She spent years of studying, observing, competing, and living within the horse world and completed the Equine Physical Rehabilitation Certification Program at the University of Tennessee College of Veterinary Medicine. Upon completion of the program, she became the second licensed Certified Equine Rehabilitation Practitioner (CERP) in Nebraska. Finally, all of the pieces of the puzzle were put together to create “Pivot Point Equine Rehab Therapy—Physical Therapy for Your Horse!” Becky understands that to compete at a high level, you and your horse must feel your best. She herself has competed at a high level in the WPRA at prestigious rodeos such as Cheyenne Frontier Days and Pendleton, Oregon. As an equine physical therapist, she keeps her own horses and her family’s horses healthy using cutting-edge physical therapy techniques. She is married to PRCA steer roper Chris Pearson and they have two daughters who also compete, Emma and Gracie Pearson. Consequently, Becky has become driven to learn how to increase the mobility, strength, and overall health of the competitive athletic horse. After her work is done, you see an overall calming effect upon the horse. The work has a lasting effect upon the whole being. It helps with increased flexibility and elasticity and softens muscles, which allows the horse to move freer and faster. Overall, the horse is just healthier and can then give you more. Because the horse is feeling better, he is more responsive to the rider and generally just happier with himself. The end result is better performance for you. Becky’s passion to help the horse through physical therapy has had her traveling the entire United States learning and working on horses…one horse at a time…one rider at a time, improving their overall quality of life, enabling them to shine when it is their time.

   Flexibility, Performance and Horses: Talking Assisted Stretching with Alicia Brigode

   In this episode I sit down with fellow equestrian Alicia Brigode, owner of the Stretch Zone franchise in Aiken, South Carolina, one of the country’s best-known horse towns. Alicia and I share a love of horses and a belief in what assisted stretching can do for the human body. We talk about how assisted stretching differs from stretching on your own, and why it can help athletes recover faster, move more freely and lower their risk of injury. We also get into what riders in particular need. Hips, low back, hamstrings and posture all affect how you sit a horse, and your mobility shapes how your horse moves underneath you. Whether you compete, ride for fun, coach athletes or work in the wellness field, you’ll come away with practical ideas about flexibility and performance, plus a look at what it’s like to run a stretch business in the heart of horse country. Connect with Alicia at Stretch Zone Aiken, and learn more about assisted stretching certification at Pivot Point Performance.

   If stretching hasn’t worked for you… it’s not your fault.

   If stretching hasn’t worked for you… it’s not your fault.I can’t tell you how many people say:“I stretch all the time but I’m still tight.”Here’s why ???????? Tight muscles aren’t always the problem???? They’re often protecting something elseSo you stretch…and your body just tightens right back up.Because what you actually need is:✔️ Strength in weak areas✔️ Better movement patterns✔️ Nervous system relaxation✔️ AND assisted stretching to create real changeThis is why just doing stretches at home doesn’t always get you where you want to go—whether that’s:• Less pain• More flexibility• Better performanceI see it in:???? Horses???? Riders???? Active adultsIt’s never just about stretching—it’s about the whole system.If you’ve been stuck, let’s change that.???? Book your session at Nebraska Athletic Club???? Or catch me at rodeos on the weekends
