I’m happy to share that four clients commented this week that their horses really hold this work well😀

Another great review for Rejuvenate Bodywork! 💪

Jane Barrett says, “Tricia worked on our two horses, neither had major problems but deserved a tune up. They both felt softer and more supple afterwards and the one high strung OTTB is Definitely not nodding and weaving as violently as he usually does in the stall.”

I shared some specific areas that Jane could work to help her boy, Fast Flying Fred, continue to unwind.
Here they are at FENCE, recently, looking amazing🏇

Riders will feel the effects of a bodywork session immediately following the session. Sometimes those changes are profound, and other times they’re subtle. The real magic, if you ask me, is what happens with routine bodywork, over time. Release the tightness, build the muscle, release the tightness, build the muscle. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat.

Ashley Phillips Cyr noticed the benefits of bodywork straight away, but she was able to really level up when she added bodywork to part of her routine maintenance. 💪

She texted me last night to say,

“Tricia I just have to tell you that in our lesson today, Amy told me "that's too much bend to the left". And for anyone who didn't know us, that would be a totally normal statement, but it almost brought me to tears because we've had trouble bending left for so long. Thanks for all you do to keep us progressing comfortably!!”

So of course I am taking another course this summer💞🤦‍♀️

We’re nearly settled in our new home, and I’m getting back to the books. A good friend, practitioner,and veteranarian has encouraged me to take Craniosacral from the Upledger Institute for a couple years now. I registered before we decided to move, and in spite of having a lot going on, it does seem like the perfect course to take at this point.
I have a lot of course work to complete prior to traveling in October, but I am looking forward to it! So far, everything I have added to my toolbox has been a great experience and allowed me to better serve the horses. ♥️

I absolutely love what I do and I pour my whole heart into it! I do my best to leave each client feeling good in their body and suggest exercises for strength training and building a balanced body. Karolyn Wangstad recently left this review☺️

“Tricia is a total professional whose love for horses shines through her work. She genuinely cares about each horse and rider. She asks questions relative to both challenges and progress. Her notes and insights are detailed and action oriented. She is a critical part of my horse Geo’s maintenance program along with the acupuncture my vet does monthly. Tricia’s personal quest for ongoing education in her field is impressive. In the time I have worked with her she has brought in a clinician to work with owners/riders on increasing flexibility and effective use of the horse’s body. She continues to achieve new certifications. The absolutely best example of the relationship she cultivates with the horses is not only evident in how well they go after body work but also in the the horses react. Geo sighs and relaxes when he see’s her…as if to say, “yes please”…”more”. She is amazing!”

Such an awesome day working on the horses at Blackberry Stables in Hendersonville. The weather was cool with a light rain. Such a perfect day to refresh and Rejuvenate!
I am also loving my new sunshirts from Equestrian Team Apparel at Tryon! They always do such nice work!

“Unlike typical spa-day massages…”
I love this review from Rachel Childers! It really made my day. This is exactly what I strive for every day~ helping horses to feel good and move freely in their bodies. ♥️

After two weekends of getting myself back into the show ring, and taking a couple light work days to prepare, I have had a very full work week this week. 😅 (Not to mention the clinics that are in the works) Thankfully, I absolutely love what I do!

It was a delight and an honor to add some of the upper level eventers in town for the competition at Tryon to my schedule!

This event is free to the public and a wonderful opportunity to support some of the nation’s top riders as they start competing today!

Referral Cups!

When I asked for a vote on social media, you helped me choose the green, so I went with that, but I ordered a few pink ones, too, for good measure💞
Although I share a lot here on social media, my business primarily comes through word of mouth. I truly appreciate when satisfied clients take the time to tell friends about my work, so I ordered these Yeti cups with the Rejuvenate logo as a thank you.

By the way, I got this idea from a childhood friend,Chris Spivey, who created Referral Cups as a thank you for referrals to his real estate business. Thanks, Chris!

Three of the things I love about Rupert’s transformation are:
1. Rupert LOVES his sessions now. When he was uncomfortable in his body, he really didn’t want anyone to touch him.

2. He is breathing better. Stuck in a compensation pattern, he was taking very shallow breaths. Freeing up the back and ribs allowed him to breathe more deeply.

3. Lastly, look at how the back is changing. It’s much more parallel to the ground, and he no longer looks so ‘rump high.’ The top picture was his sale picture (pre-Kristin) Squaring him up and lifting his head masked some of the tension in his shoulders, but look how high he was in the hindquarters. As the muscular and fascial tension releases, his spine is coming into a more neutral position.

So much of what we accept as conformation is often posture. Realize, too, how this affects feet and lower legs. 😳 I’m so excited about this transformation, Kristin Clark!😊

Woweeee!⭐️⭐️⭐️

Would you look at this progression?! Kristin Clark had me out last winter to work on her recently acquired OTTB, Rupert. I’ve got to tell you during the first session, it was hard to get much done. He was so incredibly antsy and fussy, but we did manage to make a little headway. He was just downright uncomfortable in his own skin. I left my Photonic Health red light torch and some specific instructions for grooming and handling then came back in a few weeks. There was some really good progress, and I could clearly see that Kristin was committed to showing up for this special boy.

Later, we added some postural work and corrective exercises to his program, and then things really took off! When I say “we” I mean that I gave Kristin the instructions and she ran with it. She deserves the credit for showing up day in day out and doing the work. It’s a simple 10 minute session but it’s 4-5 days per week. That’s the commitment. The bodywork released the tension, and the postural work is creating new habits for a better foundation.

Kristin also had a saddle fitter out and has recently started taking lessons with Susannah West Cord. Although I’ve still not met Susannah, I can clearly hear how well our work will come together in service of this pair, and I am so excited about that.

I am sharing a picture of Rupert in February, March, and April. The month taken is in the photo. I applaud Kristin, not only for her commitment, but also for her bravery and faith here. These are not lessons we typically get coming up through equine education, but she took the leap of faith. ⭐️

We went through a couple new exercises today. We’ll get him standing square next. I am so excited to be a part of this team!

Horse show season is underway!

Don’t do hours of prep work for a show then show up with a horse that has tight hamstrings, or shoulders, or low back, or poll… There’s no need to swim upstream!

Rejuvenate will offer pre-competition and post-competition sessions! I’ll be offering these at area venues, but same day sessions are only available to regular clients. I’m happy to work on new clients the day before classes. If you’d like to schedule a treatment for your partner, be sure to plan ahead! My schedule stays full.

I’ve been riding myself for 48 years, and I’m a fully insured bodyworker with multiple advanced certifications including Wilson-Meagher Method from Jo-Ann Wilson and Myofascial Release/ Anatomy Trains. Before you enter the ring, be sure to !🦄

Balancing the TMJ🫶
If a horse is clenching down on one side of the mouth more than the other, the resulting muscular tension may pull the lower jaw slightly to that side. Some manual therapy here allowed this horse to more naturally center the jaw evenly.
