About 6-8ish month ago, I had T's Tranquility Guidance & Healing do a couple of session’s with Sooner. She told me so much helpful information and advice to help him, and encourage the healing process.

One method she taught me was to create an “energy barrier” around him as he’s more sensitive to energy around him. I noticed that he was standing away from the horses more than usual, and felt he needed a little extra. I envisioned a double barrier and both Uttech and Sooner started to yawn(sign of release)

Several photos of my boys looking silly while I performed some on them.

So thank you Tanya, for helping Sooner.

Sooner Than Later Animal Massage & Bodywork is wishing you an amazing day filled with love, laughter, and delicious food. Happy Thanksgiving!

I am thankful for Sooner, who is my heart horse 💕 He is my listener when I feel like I can’t talk to anyone. He is my motivation. He is the reason I started my business, hence why it’s named after him. 🥰

I am also thankful for Victoria, who owns The Balanced Orchid Animal Massage and Bodywork Without her, none of this would be possible! She has taught me so much, encouraged me along the way, and is guiding me through this process of starting a small business. I’m so thankful to have you as a mentor, but most importantly as a friend ☺️

Cribbing (Part 3)

Research on cribbing behavior in horses has uncovered several possible influences, including genetic, environmental, and physiological factors. Cribbing, where horses repetitively bite or grasp an object and inhale, often stems from stress, boredom, or gastrointestinal discomfort. Recent studies suggest that managing environmental stressors, providing social interaction, and increasing turnout can help reduce cribbing episodes, although a definitive “cure” remains elusive. Other interventions, such as dietary changes or supplements, also show mixed results, making comprehensive management important.

Craniosacral therapy (CST) has been explored as a therapeutic option for cribbing and other behavioral issues in horses. CST is a gentle, hands-on therapy that aims to release tension in the cranial and sacral bones and surrounding tissues, potentially helping alleviate discomfort in the central nervous system. Practitioners of CST believe it can support horses in achieving a more relaxed state and, therefore, reduce compulsive behaviors like cribbing. Some anecdotal and preliminary evidence supports CST’s calming effects, but scientific studies specifically linking CST to reduced cribbing in horses are still limited, and more controlled trials would help clarify its efficacy.

*note - I generally dislike the use of crib collars and other preventative devices, partly because they don’t address the cause and partly because they can cause headaches and other issues for horses that wear them. At least this one is clean and well padded.

Ever wondered how our anatomy compares to a horse’s? 🧐 Check out this colorful schematic of a human foot and a horse’s hind limb! Did you know that our heel is actually the equivalent of the point of the hock in a horse? 🦶➡️🐴

Athena and Yogi have been experiencing back pain lately. They both play hard. ⚽️ I did a back pain relief taping on both dogs


Once applied, they both started to stretch, and shake, which can be signs of release!
