The Horse Concept

The Horse Concept is an equine osteopathy and saddle-fitting business run by Björn Stahl in Niederlangen, in Germany’s Emsland region. A trained physiotherapist with a DIPO qualification in equine osteopathy, Stahl focuses on improving the wellbeing and performance of horses and their riders through individual, holistic care. Osteopathic assessments begin with a discussion with the owner and include observation at rest and in movement, as well as hands-on evaluation.

Treatments address concerns such as stiffness, restricted movement, signs of discomfort, poor coordination, gait irregularities and reduced performance. Services also include support during rehabilitation, preventive care and supplementary osteopathic assessments for prospective horse buyers. The Horse Concept also supplies custom-made saddles from Deuber & Partner and offers used saddles.

To assess fit and pressure distribution, the business uses tools including an Impression Pad and saddle grid, aiming to find a suitable solution for both horse and rider. Customers can contact The Horse Concept for advice, information about its services or to arrange an appointment
