Bodywork, Stretches, and Corrective Exercises: 2 hours
$600 per package

Sessions may include a customized plan for your horse, hand-walking, bodywork, and stretching. Pictures and videos will be taken during each session and shared with you.

This experience is ideal for the horse that:

- is generally sore,
- has never or rarely had bodywork,
- has recently been released back to work by a vet after an injury or illness,
- is aging with new creaks and cracks,
- deserves a lil’ extra love,
- trains for performance in a competitive setting,
- takes the winter off for a lil’ RnR, or
- is your best boy or mare and you want to monitor your horse’s general fitness.

I ask that you schedule all 5 sessions prior to the start of an Intensive so we may coordinate our calendars.

NOTE: During the Intensive and a day or two after, it is recommended to not ask your horse for a typical or demanding workout under saddle or in-hand in addition to the Intensive. This allows the horse’s body and mind to adjust to the work being done during appointments. It is recommended to gradually return to normal workouts over the course of the next 3 workouts.

Service Information

Equine Bodywork and Corrective Exercises

Your horse’s muscles and fascia should be supple to the touch. Movement and touch can help release the spasm or tension as well as strengthen its stabilizing muscles and soft tissue structures.

When I work with your horse, I use a mixture of techniques or modalities based on your concerns and what your horse and its body tells me.

Appointments typically last 1-2 hours and include a conversation about your concerns and updates, visual observations of your horse standing and moving, pictures and videos to capture the current status, bodywork, and maybe stretching and even corrective exercises. I may use a variety of brushes, curries, and a massage gun depending on what we are trying to accomplish.

All clients have access to a private Dropbox folder where I share photos and videos from their appointments and they can send me photos between appointments. There is no extra cost for this and clients do not need a Dropbox account.

Please Note

I ask that the owner be present to groom your horse if needed, hold your horse during the appointment, and provide information about any concerns you have.

Appointments are typically between 1-2 hours, and I come to you.

I am not a veterinarian, vet tech, osteopath or equine chiropractor. I cannot provide any medical advice, diagnosis, or treatment protocols or recommendations. I am not good fit if you have an injury that you are currently working through the healing process with your vet. At this time, I do not do work on stallions, foals, yearlings, or mares who are pregnant, nursing, or being prepped for breeding. I do not offer pulse or light therapy, acupuncture, or chiropractic work.

Service Area

My primary service area is within 1-hour of Madison, WI. I am willing to travel further based on the number of horses and a trip charge may apply. The pin markers on the map indicate where my clients are located. I work with training, boarding and private barns.

I try to schedule as many appointments in barn or geographic groups when possible. The maximum number of horses in a day is six.

If you would like to join on an existing day, please plan for a 90-minute window so I can touch base with you about your horse and concerns, work with the horse for 60 minutes, take before and after pictures and videos, and then make my post-session notes. Also, if you are at a different barn, please give me travel time.

As I make new connections, my service area continues to expand. I am currently looking for introductions in the highlighted areas. If you know someone with a horse who would value my services, I would greatly appreciate an introduction. If that’s not your style, but you are comfortable to share my contact information, I would greatly appreciate that too!

It is best to text or message me on the socials, as I cannot answer calls when working with a horse.
