What is Equine Massage Therapy?
Equine massage therapy is the assessment and treatment of the soft tissues and joints of the
body by manipulation to develop, maintain, rehabilitate, and/or relieve pain. Emphasis is
given to early intervention and prevention of long term injuries to these structures.
I will work closely with your veterinarian and other practioners to ensure that your equine
partner is receiving the best possible care.
