Before doing the exercise massage of tibial splint, apply hot compress on this part. Tibial splints are usually caused by extremely tight muscles, and direct digging may cause more damage. By warming up your muscles, you can not only reduce the amount of work needed to get into the deep muscles, but also start with pain relief. When warming up and using tibial splint massage, don't forget the hind legs, because the hind legs often play a great role in the pain of the forelegs. Too tight calf will increase the pressure on the front of the leg, so make sure that your hot compress covers the whole calf.
