Centered at the WinStar Training Center, I oversee the therapies throughout the farm. I do the hyperbaric chambers, spa treatments, laser treatments, pretty much anything that is done from a rehab perspective. I have a great team that works together. I am not secluded to one division. We work with training and rehab most heavily but work with broodmares and yearlings as well. Occasionally, if a stallion needs assistance, we can also take care of them. I also help keep all the records up-to- date for the horses in training and in rehab. Q A Where are you from? Mason, Texas, in the foothills of the Rocky Mountains.

The rehabilitation team at the WinStar Training Center plays a very important role in the success of the program, and that includes Lanie Bratcher, hyperbaric chamber technician. Q A & WITH WINSTAR'S
