Bodywork for your equine athlete to optimize performance
Massage Techniques
Massage therapy breaks up tightness and adhesions in the body’s muscle and connective tissues; tendons and ligaments. This increases blood flow into the tissues flushing out waste and toxins while rushing in nutrients and oxygen to heal. The tight muscle, resulting in reduced pain, increased range of motion and better performance, not to mention a happier attitude.
With training in Swedish Massage, Deep Tissue, Trigger Point Work, Cranial Sacral and Lymphatic Drainage, I have many tools at my finger tips to comprehensively treat you and your horse.
Is your horse in pain
There are many signs of a horse experiencing pain… Shifting weight from one hind leg to another while standing. Excessive tail wringing or swishing. Stiffness coming out of the stall or just starting under saddle. Cranky behavior in a normally sweet horse. Reluctance to perform his job (stopping at jumps, resisting collection, swapping leads).
Quick attention to his discomfort will shorten recovery time. Performance Massage Therapy will work with you to schedule a convenient time and place.
