I never want to become too good for the horse that got me here. ❤️

I absolutely love working with horses at the top of their sport. Sometimes I still can’t believe I’ve made it to what feels like such a cool peak in my career.

But in my heart, I still want to be the person little-girl Reille would have wanted caring for her wonderfully ordinary, sometimes rotten horse. 😂

It was the years of working my way through barns, learning from coaches, trainers and horse people, getting my hands dirty and figuring things out that gave me the skills to become the bodyworker I am today.

Those same lessons gave me the foundation to build the horse of my dreams from a yearling onward. ❤️

So whether your horse is a top athlete or your wonderfully ordinary best friend…

I see you. I’m one of you.

Can AI do this? 🤖

Because I’m pretty sure AI can’t make a horse yawn like THAT. 😂🐴

I’ll keep my job for now. 😉

" I highly recommend Reille for her equine massages. I have been working with Reille for over 6 years and love the difference she makes for my horses. Brie loves her ‘auntie’!

Reille is straight forward and honest. She also works well alongside other professionals in the industry.

If you are looking for a kind, knowledgeable equine massage therapist, Reille is the best! "

I don’t care what you do with your horse.

Seriously.

Just because my focus is performance horses doesn’t mean I only work with performance horses. Discipline doesn’t matter to me. I don’t care what saddle you ride in, how often you ride, or hell if you ride at all.

Maybe you’re a mom of three who gets a couple hours at the barn each week because it’s the one part of yourself you’re determined to keep alive.

Maybe you compete every weekend.

Maybe you trail ride once a month.

Maybe your horse is retired and your biggest goal is keeping them comfortable and happy.

I don’t care what your tack cost. I care that it fits well enough to keep your horse comfortable and you safe. And if you don’t know if it does? Let me help.

I don’t care if your horse cost $100,000 or $1.

They all get the same level of care, the same attention, and the same respect.

What matters to me is that you’re doing your best with the information, resources and skills you have and that you genuinely care about your horse.

There’s no judgment here.

Just horses, their people, and helping both feel a little better. 🤍

Saddle Thoughts 💭

Something I've been thinking about .. good communication between the different professionals involved in a horse's care.

Massage therapists, chiropractors, vets, farriers, saddle fitters, trainers… we all have different roles, and I think there is so much value in being able to communicate and share what we're seeing.

If I work on a horse who also sees another professional, I like to share what I found and what I worked on. Not because I need someone else to tell me what to do, but because sometimes another set of eyes can be helpful.

At the end of the day, we're all working toward the same thing .. helping the horse feel and perform their best.

We all have something to bring to the table, we can always communicate, learn and keep the horse at the centre of it. ❤️

Just a little thought from me today.

August has been a busy one! Horse prep for Dressage/Jumper shows & Arabian Nationals, swag orders for the shows, and a 16-horse trip to Calgary. 😅

I’m happy to be back home, look a little breather, and getting my own horse ready for our September show — YAY, WE ARE SOUND AGAIN! 🙌

I didn’t overbook the end of August because I wasn’t sure what life would look like, which means I actually have weekend availability (a rarity around here!).

I’m back at it! Schedule below shows the locations I’ll be in and general availability. Message me to get your horse on the books. 🐴 780 660 7345

I have a few spots remaining before the August long weekend! 🐴

If your horse is due for maintenance, coming back into work, or just not feeling their best, now's a great time to get them booked in.

📍 Fort Saskatchewan 📍 Sherwood Park 📍 Ardrossan 📍 St. Albert

I'm also starting to book into August, so if you've been thinking about scheduling an appointment, send me a message before the calendar fills up!

Well... I think we survived June. 😅

Between the monsoon-like rain and what felt like an endless army of mosquitoes, I'm hoping we can finally start enjoying being outside again.

With a bit of luck, July will bring some sunshine, drier footing, and a chance to actually spend time with our horses without donating a litre of blood to the bugs!

I do have some availability left throughout July if your horse is due for a bodywork session. Whether you've been busy at shows, out on the trails, or just trying to survive the weather, now isn't a bad time to check in and make sure they're feeling their best.

I hope everyone gets a chance to enjoy the rest of the summer—hopefully with fewer mosquitoes! ☀️🐴

FAQ: Why do you recommend regular bodywork for horses?

Because horses are a lot like onions.

Every session peels back another layer.

As old compensation patterns are released, the body finally has room to show us what was hiding underneath. That's why it can feel like we're always finding something "new."

If we're treating the exact same issue over and over—and it's not because of an old injury, conformation, or the horse's job—then we need to figure out why. I don't want to just chase sore muscles. I want to find the root cause.

People often ask when their horse will be "done" with bodywork. The truth is... there isn't really a finish line.

There are milestones.

A horse that's moving better, recovering faster, standing more comfortably, or simply feeling happier in their body—that's progress.

As we peel away the old layers, new issues become easier to identify and address before they turn into bigger problems.

And just like a real onion... the deepest, toughest layers are usually the hardest to peel.

Bodywork isn't about fixing everything in one session. It's about helping your horse feel and perform their best, one layer at a time. 🧅🐴

"What do you do for a living?"

Mostly, I massage horses until they make this face. 😂

All jokes aside, helping horses move better and feel their best is one of the best parts of my job.

I'd say this little mare was pretty satisfied with her session. 🐴
