Equine Therapy

Since early childhood, I have been drawn to horses. This continued passion and bond has made me determined to follow my dreams and dedicate my career to their well-being. I began helping animals as an Animal Health Veterinary Technician in 1996 and started my own professional practice as a Certified Equine Therapist in 2004 and have expanded to treat canines as well. It is my personal goal to improve your horse's natural movement and stride by alleviating performance-related or chronic ailments through preventative equine therapy and sports massage.

Benefits of Equine Massage:

Injury prevention by alleviating muscular imbalances before concerns arise and secondary problems become present.
Increased circulation, which reduces fluid build up in muscles therefore assisting in muscle/tissue repair.
Aids in the breakdown of muscle knots and scar tissue by increasing the blood flow to the area.
Helps to tonify muscles and maintain anatomical structure and strength.
Assists in the relief and treatment of muscle fatigue and atrophy.
Improved movement along with better flexibility.
Better attitude because of reduced pain.

Benefits of Integrated Therapy

Saddlefitting - This is a major contributor of muscle soreness, atrophy and restricted movement. By alleviating and fixing this problem, your horse will move more freely and with less pain.
Integrated use of Magnets - This addition to massage, more readily promotes healing and enhanced performance.
Acupressure - Energy imbalances disrupt the meridians' energy flow, therefore causing congestion of the body's system. Acupressure helps to balance this build up.
Rider/Horse Imbalance Assessment - An imbalanced rider can cause an imbalanced horse. Correcting this problem allows for a team that moves in harmony.
Applied Kinesiology (Muscle Testing) - Evaluating the body's imbalances thru energy production.
Trigger Point Therapy - The treatment of a specific muscle area to treat general problems.
Reiki - Used for stress reduction and relaxation which also readily promotes the body's healing process.
