* Polite Reminder *

With us changing from summer to Autumn / Winter and the nights drawing in, can I ask that you be on time for your appointments, your equine friends to be clean and dry, I am unable to massage wet muddy horses. I don’t want to waste my time or yours during these months for me not to be able to perform the treatment i would much like to pamper your horses 🐴 If your are unable to make the appointment, I ask that can you let me know in enough time as this may lead to a cancellation charge.

P.S

💜 It’s so important to talk to people 💜

We’ve all been there, today is a day to open up to your friends, family, colleagues, or to anyone who will listen, start a conversation and take to the load off. I’m wearing purple in my massage suit to show support to help others In need. I too recently have have had a wobble I was able to lean on my friends for help and guidance and I felt so much better getting it off my chest. So I’m always here for a chat if anyone needs to get things off their chest 💜

☀️ Hi guys to say that I will be on holiday from July 22nd and will be back at work the following week on the 31st. July is getting pretty booked up and so is August so don’t miss out on your horses massage or yourself at my base in Telford ☀️

⛅️ Thinking back to last week when my spotty client decided to lie down during her massage treatment, she was clear to relaxed Samantha Thomas

🐴 So if your after a massage therapist that can relax your horse until they lie down, then I’m ya girl 🤣

With all the sun shine and showers 🌦️ we are having well mostly rain today and mostly mild ish temperatures, it’s perfect growing weather and not just for the grass. So as I’ve been out and about and especially down my fields I’ve had these plants pop up, but I never really trust which ones are safe for my horses. So EquiNutritive have given us the perfect explanation we need on how to differentiate between the 2 plants.

So what are the benefits of Cow Parsley?

🌿 It can be a herbal medicine
🌿 Helps with the digestive system
🌿 Aiding good kidney function
🌿 Helps with the respiratory system
🌿 Also believed with wound healing

As long as fed in small amounts and not to over loads their stomachs.

* All information on cow parsley can be found on Google *

☀️ What a perfect way to start the day off treating gorgeous horses 🐴

☀️ What a fantastic way of explaining how different therapies can compliment each other and at the same time explain which each different modality does.

Sometimes as horse owners it can be tricky as to which path you go down, but to me which ever avenue you take is a step towards helping our horses to feel the best they can ❤️

A Common Question 🤔
Massage Therapists, Physios or Chiropractors?

Who should you use? 🤯

📌 Massage therapists, equine physios, and chiropractors can work together effectively to improve the overall health and performance of horses. Each of these professionals has a unique set of skills and techniques that can complement each other, leading to better outcomes for the horse.

📌 Equine physiotherapists are trained to assess and treat musculoskeletal injuries, including soft tissue and joint problems. They use various techniques, including massage, stretching, and exercise therapy, to improve mobility, reduce pain, and enhance performance.

📌 Chiropractors specialise in treating spinal problems and joint dysfunction. They use spinal manipulation and other manual therapies to restore proper joint movement and alleviate pain.

📌 Massage therapists use their hands to manipulate soft tissue, such as muscles, tendons, and ligaments. They can identify areas of tension, stiffness, and soreness, and use various massage techniques to reduce pain, improve circulation, and promote relaxation.

❤️ By working together, these professionals can provide a comprehensive approach to treating musculoskeletal issues in horses. For example, a massage therapist can help to loosen tight muscles and prepare the horse for chiropractic adjustment. The chiropractor can then perform spinal manipulation to restore proper joint movement, and the physiotherapist can use exercise therapy to strengthen weak muscles and prevent further injury.

💪 Working together, massage therapists, equine physios, and chiropractors can provide a holistic approach to equine healthcare, improving the overall well-being and performance of the horse.

🥰 How has it been a whole week since I’ve seen this mushy man. Henry is just such a fabulous client and he just knows when the spot is good. It was also lovely for his mummy Emma Parry to have her first massage with me, which yes she definitely needed, all to help them go and win 🥇 one of their classes at the weekend. Here Equine Performance Therapies we help both horse and rider to achieve your goals ❤️

To book either your horse or yourself a massage, message me here @ Equine Performance Therapies

So this happened this morning, and another certificate that I have filed really well and cannot find is my Equine Craniosacral Therapist certificate. ☀️ All go here behind the scenes so I can improve and better my skills so that your equine friends can reactive the best treatments possible ❤️

I will now be intertwining all my modalities such as Sports massage, Rehabilitation massage, Myofascial release and Craniosacral therapy into individual treatments for your horses 🐴

❤️ It was lovely to see father and daughter duo Zeus and Crystal last week, both horses are improving and feeling great coming into spring ❤️ you can never find the right angle to pick for a picture 🙈

⭐️ I still have some availability for April for both equine and human massage - at my base in Halesfield, Telford and with the lighter nights now among us you don’t have to worry about being at work as I am now back doing evenings.
