Beautiful Jasper really appreciating and relaxing into his Sports Massage earlier this morning. 💆🏼♂️
As we are now in full swing of winter, you may find your horse is having to be stabled more due to the adverse weather conditions. Sports Massage is an excellent way of increasing circulation therefore a huge benefit throughout these winter months.
Increased circulation is only a small benefit of Sports Massage, in addition it can;
- Improve lymphatic drainage
- Releases any built up tension from tired or sore muscles
- Improves overall wellbeing
- Increased stride length and range of movement
- Increased blood flow to muscles
Please get in touch with any enquiries/ bookings. I’ll be more than happy to help!

A really busy day yesterday! 🤩
Two ponies looked after in the morning and two ponies treated to Sports Massage in the afternoon!
With a little spare time in the afternoon I decided to get my new clippers out and give them a little test drive… clipper spam to come later on! ✂️
Here’s a throwback video of one of my favourite equine clients, Sam, throughly enjoying his Sports Massage!

Rox being the perfect patient ⭐️
The pelvic tilt exercise;
Fantastic method to initiate the contraction of major and minor core muscles. Pelvic tilts are also great for horses showing signs or soreness/stiffness in their pelvic, sacral or lumbar region.
Helps to strengthen;
- Abdominal muscle
- Hip flexors
- thoracic sling
This exercise will also increase;
- Thoracic-Lumbar spine flexion
- Pelvic mobility
- Hindlimb mobility
Belly lifts;
Another fantastic method to help strengthen the abdominal muscles in any horse. If done frequently, this can help improve your horse’s ability to support his spine and to work in a round, balanced frame. This exercise also encourages a nice stretch along the spine.
Thank you, Alex, for trusting me with your lovely boy!
Hanging back to watch the magic unfold ✨
Yawning … the ultimate release and here little Magic shows a perfect example of this. I hung back after treating so I could assess Magic’s behaviour after a thorough massage, whilst there were signs of release during treatment, it wasn’t until after that she was able to really process what we had done and let go of all her built up tension. So rewarding ♥️
