Our Story
I fell in love with Equine Bodywork in 2013 and my business Body Language was finally born on the 1st of August 2017. My passion for Bodywork started when I bought home my first horse, a very broken Standardbred in 2013. After an endless amount of Chiro, Equissage and Vets, I decided to learn massage to further improve his health and well being. After 3 years of studying reports, websites, tutorials, journals and books without any official recognition for this learning and practice (other than happy relaxed horses I treated), I decided I would like my accreditation, to be recognised for my skills and love of horses and horse therapy. So off to Equestricare I went to become an accredited Equine Massage Therapist, which I completed on the 27th of September 2017.
My approach is both Physical and Psychological. We ask horses to respond to our bodies and our movements, why are we not listening to them as they speak back to us. Sometimes their reaction is not what we wanted to hear, but it isn't necessarily wrong, it's all they can do to alert us to something going on that we can not see! We can all learn to understand our horses body language and speak to them through this. This is all part or the treatment and communication I work through with you both.
