Waking up on this beautiful sunny day ☀️

To a message

I remember this pony very well.
The owner booked for the mini massage while he was on the camp.

I knew straight away a mini massage wouldn’t have benefited this pony.

I explained to his owner to just trust me ☺️ as I knew exactly what Buster needed.

So instead of doing one & taking the owners money knowing fine well it wouldn’t have served the pony well.

I helped the lovely Buster to down regulate & re set his nervous system ( being at a camp away from home has an impact on your horse)

So it was lovely to receive this message from Billy about Buster & how I have helped them begin a new & very different journey.

Have a wonderful day everyone 🙏

Over seas visit to …

Rural Italy 🇮🇹

After treating the horses in Prague
I was invited to Italy to keep up with their bodywork.

Both horses are doing really well.

And Italy didn’t disappoint.
What a stunning country
I ate wholesome food & drank Home made mulberry gin

I had some much needed respite from my reality.

Sadly the horse flies are something out of a Sci fi movie! And there’s nothing on the market that can stop them biting 😡

A huge fan is set up in their barn that sprays water & they can come & go as they please on a grass track system grazing on a diverse range of plants , herbs & grasses.

An amazing experience & I’m very much looking forward to going back 🇮🇹🫶

‼️ Help ‼️

It seems reviews can no longer be left on my business page

There’s no “leave a review” button or “Do you recommend this business” 🤷‍♀️

Has anyone else got this problem?

Everything in my settings is how it should be.

Fb has stopped this function 🤷‍♀️

Working on my own horse who has a multitude of issues 😩🤦🏻‍♀️

Prepping the area of his body before I apply the kinesiology tape is so important because it directly affects whether the tape does anything useful or just sits there. Even if it just sits there it will still be doing something.

For me, I’ll never just apply the tape. I want to make sure the areas of concern are properly assessed, released, and neurologically available to respond.

Watch the video till the end and you will see 🥳

If you tape over restriction, I think you’re not supporting function you’re just reinforcing compensation.

What I’m looking for before the tape goes on is fascial glide can the tissue move, or does it feel stuck and adhered?

Tone vs tension is the muscle guarding, or is it weak and unresponsive?

Reactivity what does the horse tell me when I touch or stimulate the body.

I’ll always do some form of manual release work first whether that’s fascial work, gentle mobilisation, or nervous system down regulation just so the body is in a position to actually accept the input from the tape.

Because tape isn’t the fix. It’s a support while it has a conversation with the nervous system.

And if the body isn’t ready to listen, it won’t respond the way i need it to.

Applied well, after the right prep, tape can:

Support a new movement pattern

Reduce overload in compensating structures

Improve proprioception and awareness

Reduce inflammation/pain

And help the horse maintain what you’ve just created. Which is what I’m always trying to achieve with my own horse 🤦🏻‍♀️

Applied without prepping his body I’ll just be locking in his dysfunction
And creating false stability.

Which I deffo don’t need especially because he’s already so compromised !!

Big thanks goes to

Equine K Taping UK

For giving me the confidence to start taping my horse again.
Your course & the way you teach was invaluable 🙌

Learning

There’s always something new to learn in this industry and sometimes the best way to do that is by learning from other professionals. But also still be a critical thinker ( which I very much am )

Lameness evaluations, scoping for ulcers, X-rays of feet seeing it all through a veterinary lens and getting hands on where I could.

I spent the day with the Equestrian Business Awards Vet Practice of the Year 2025 at Pocket Nook Equine Vets, observing and helping where I could.

Seeing everything from a different perspective and deepening my understanding.

There’s always more to see, question, and learn.

And of course I took a selfie with Emily ☺️

I forget sometimes

I think when you’re around horses all the time, you stop seeing them the way people who arnt around them do.

It’s something i don’t really think about when you’re horsey. Especially when they’ve been part of your life since you was a child.

I just take it for granted & I know I shouldn’t, that I’ve got Hank. He’s part of my everyday life and I don’t really think much of it.

That’s until you meet people who’ve never been near a horse before, never mind touched one. And you see how excited they are just to be near him & stroke him.

While I do appreciate having him in my life, I think I forget sometimes that having a horse is a privilege.

Not in a money sense because I definitely go without just so I can have him but in the sense that it’s an honour. I’m lucky to have him.

It’s a privilege to have the relationship with him, he is in my life every day.

It’s funny how our horses become part of us. You don’t even think about it, like breathing, they’re just there.

CPD training. I’m already trained in kinisiology taping but I thought I would update my skills & iv got to say this has been the icing on the cake for me 🙌

Of course I had to get a selfie with Denise the face behind
Equine K Taping UK

If you’re interested in learning all about the benefits of K taping whether your a therapist or horse owner I highly recommend booking with Denise.

Being trained by someone who is genuinely passionate about what they do makes all the difference.

It’s not just about learning techniques, it’s about understanding the why behind them and applying them correctly for each individual horse. And being taught in a friendly approachable way makes the experience even more valuable. The home made chocolate flapjacks also helped. Thank you to Denise hubby for making them for us 😋

I met some really wonderful therapists as well, all genuinely love what what they do, which always makes these days even better.

Emma Dawe - Equine Massage Therapy thanks for being my taping buddy 🙌

Emily Whitbread Equine Sports Massage Therapist so lovely to meet you & good luck on your journey with your new business 🥰

Equi-Flex as always .. a pleasure to catch up 🥳 you are a beautiful ball of energy 🫶

Cheshire County Vet Physio
Thanks for eating all the flapjacks 😆

Always learning, always improving.

And even if I say so myself I’m pretty impressed with my taping 🙌

‼️Technical hitch alert ‼️
Struggling to set up zoom 😆

🛑 Zoom meeting Sunday 7th June 🛑

I will be having another chat.
Any questions you would like to ask please comment below .

Iv just had a really lovely zoom call with one of the ladies that attended the
British Bridleless Competition

Her video is below
With two of her horses 🥰

I think this is a great opportunity for us to ask her some questions about her bridlelss journey.

The competition has brought so much positivity into the horse world and I think we should be celebrating it.

So, if you have any questions you would like me to ask Josette Planer

Please comment below
It’s going to be a great interview 🙌
