Single Sessions
A single bodywork session can last up to an hour and a half. In this session I manipulate the horses tissue and use energy work to help the horse relax. Using various strokes, I remove any tension and holdings from the horses body. Each session is tailored to a horse’s individual needs. A single session is perfect for maintaining or improving a horses muscle condition, promoting healing after an injury or restoring balance and relaxation to your equine companion. Single sessions are recommended for your horse on a monthly basis or as needed.
Full Bodyworks Series
A full bodyworks series consists of 5 sessions. Each session focuses on a different area of the horse to insure each muscle is worked and balanced. The first session in the series is an introduction to the work as well as an assessment of the horses tension and muscle condition. The second session focuses on freeing up the horse’s shoulder and front end. Session three is all about the ribcage and the hip. The fourth and fifth sessions are custom sessions to remove any remaining tension in the tissue and looks at the horse’s body as a whole. A full series can benefit any horse.
Pre & Post Performance Massages
A pre-performance massage is designed to increase blood flow to the muscles and loosen the tissues before a performance. Using massage techniques, these 20-30 minute sessions can better prepare your horse for competition, hard rides or anything they may be doing. Note: these massages cannot replace a proper warm up
A post-performance massage helps remove excess fluids from the muscles and prevent injury from muscle strains. Promotes blood flow to tissue, relaxation and muscle repair after a hard workout. Note: Should not be used to replace a proper cool down.
