Last day of February means summer is coming to an end, the show jumpers will soon be going on holiday and the hunters come in for the season. What a beautiful time of year it is. Remember to send your bodywork bookings through ahead of time so you don’t miss out on the next run in your area, also remember you are welcome to bring your horses to me for treatment with the shorter days and unpredictable weather we have an undercover area with lights.
Happy Autumn people 💖K

Equine massage provides a range of benefits for horses engaged in any discipline, from competitive sports to recreational riding. One of the primary advantages is muscle relaxation. By alleviating tension and tightness in the muscles, massage enhances flexibility and range of motion, allowing horses to move more freely and efficiently. This is crucial for optimal performance, whether in dressage, jumping, or trail riding.

Additionally, massage stimulates blood circulation, which is vital for delivering oxygen and nutrients to muscles while removing metabolic waste. Improved circulation not only aids in faster recovery after workouts but also reduces soreness, keeping your horse feeling comfortable and ready for training.

Equine massage also plays a key role in pain relief and injury prevention. Regular sessions can help identify early signs of discomfort, preventing chronic issues from developing. Moreover, the manipulation of soft tissues promotes healing for existing injuries by enhancing blood flow and reducing inflammation.

Finally, massage has significant behavioral benefits. It can help reduce stress and anxiety, leading to a calmer, more focused horse during sessions and competitions. Overall, the holistic benefits of equine massage support your horse's physical and mental well-being, ensuring they remain healthy, happy, and at the top of their game.

Tomorrow is my last official day of bodywork for 2024 before a well deserved break for my body. We still have a team of horses to work but that’s another story 😂🥰.
I want to take a moment to thank all my loyal clients/friends who have supported me through yet another year. Thank you for trusting me with your horses. Thank you for believing in me. Thank you for bringing me back time and time again.
I wish you all a safe and peaceful holiday and look forward to seeing you and your horses again in 2025.

One very relaxed Flynt enjoying his bimonthly bodywork session.
When I first started working on him a year ago he was uptight and fidgety and had several recurring issues throughout his body, now we have minor niggles and a very happy relaxed horse.

Hey everyone 👋🏻
Life is busy for us all and even more so this time of year.
Please don’t be offended if we don’t get back to you straight away outside business hours. (8am - 5pm Mon - Fri). Sometimes we like to do normal people things. I promise you we will reply when we can. So if you message and you don’t get a reply you probably won’t get your follow call picked up either. But don’t stress we will get back to you when we are in the office next.
