Is your horse used as a performance horse: Dressage, Racing, Barrel Racing, Jumping to name a few? Do you use your horses for some kind of work?

I'll not pretend to know or make less of what a Veterinarian knows and does; however I will say that there are some things that the tests will not show, stiffness, torn or over used muscles or muscle injuries. Though massage is not a cure; it can and will provide a way for the body to naturally heal itself. Perhaps it is time to integrate medicine and massage therapy for they both are essential to our horse's well being.

Through Equine massage, there will be all kinds of levels of benefits. Some will be immediate, others
it may take a day or two for us to see. Through equine massage, your horse will be able to perform better for you, for longer periods of time, as you'd like them too.

Benefits of Equine Massage
to name a few:

* Better circulation
* Muscles lengthening to proper
levels
* Can alleviate most symptoms of
discomfort.
* Will create a better
bond (Trust) between
Horse and owner
* Can help reduce swelling
* Will help to expedite the
healing process for your horse
* Is great for you horse's warm-up
before events and cool down after

Fact: A good 60% and more of a horse's mass is muscle. Like humans, horses that are active in any way, i.E. athletic or working, will suffer from pain due to over exertion. The result of over exertion will in turn cause your horse to bind up to the point that they can't do what we would like them to do.

Does it not make sense that we ought to include massage with our horses? As a result of reike and massage, your horse could be the next winner at your next event as a result.

Testimonial: Dillon was run over by his cart in a race, injuring his left hind quarter. He can only walk on three legs occasionally putting his left leg. "After his massage he became like another horse,cantering up the long gravel driveway"
