Healing Hands for our Equine Friends

Healing Hands for our Equine Friends Equine sports massage therapy is a powerful tool in injury prevention for horses.Therapeutic Massage also plays a key role in post-trauma rehabilitation.

Therapeutic Massage plays a key role in post-trauma rehabilitation, to get your horse back into work sooner with less chance of weakness or re-injury. Massage breaks down scar tissue and brings blood and oxygen to the area for speedier healing of muscle damage. EMT will work on the whole body of the horse so the horse can function in a balanced way and release any compensatory muscle tensions also

linked with injury. Each muscle attaches to two or more bones and crosses one joint or more. Muscles free from tension, with agility and movement, will carry out a function of keeping joints aligned. This allows joint fluid to flow evenly within the joint, and this reduces unnatural wear and tear of joints. Hence the term ‘well-oiled joints’. Each muscle is attached to bone by tendons. Muscles are designed to take 90% of workload and tendons the other 10%. If the muscle isn’t functioning properly then the tendons will take more load. This is obviously very important in horses as ultimately it can lead to bowed tendons. Equine massage therapy is a very powerful tool in injury prevention for horses.

Hey everyone! ❤️
I just wanted to take a moment to say a huge THANK YOU for your patience and understanding with me this past month. My schedule at the animal hospital has been a little different than usual, and I’ve been doing my very best to accommodate everyone and get as many horses on my August schedule as possible.
I know many of you have already reached out about scheduling for September. Typically, I like to book your next appointment while I’m there with you and your horse so we can keep everyone on a consistent schedule. As soon as my manager releases my September work schedule, I will be reaching out to get everyone booked!
I also sincerely apologize to anyone I wasn’t able to accommodate this month or keep on their regular schedule. I truly appreciate your patience and flexibility while I juggle both schedules. Please know that I haven’t forgotten about anyone! ❤️
I’m incredibly grateful for each and every one of you who continues to trust me with your horses. Your support, understanding, and loyalty mean more to me than you know. 🐴❤️
Thank you for bearing with me — I promise I’m working on getting everyone taken care of!

Let’s talk about the difference of massage & PEMF!
Last night after taking to another equine massage therapist halfway across the country, it seems to be a common thing that people just want to use machines over a professionally trained person!
Massage & PEMF are two entirely different modalities and one does not replace the other. The machine does not rebalance the horse, stretch the horse, know which side is worse than the other or which area needs extra attention. It does not feel a muscle relax or release, or release knots if the practitioner doesn’t know how to find them, and it generally does the same thing for each spot throughout the body. It cannot feel if there is a subluxation somewhere, and cannot change the structure of the horse how I share with my before & after images. It also doesn’t notice which side is tighter, atrophied, or able to tell how the horse carries itself just by feeling the horse and looking at their muscling. It can’t tell if your horse has a tack fitting issue, a primary issue, where the horse is compensating, I can go on and on…
If PEMF is done correctly, your horse should not be sore the next day or hate having it done. PEMF goes to the cellular level and helps regenerate healthy cells to that area something a massage cannot do. It also goes deeper than a massage less invasively and just overall deeper. A huge added benefit of it is that it can help speed up the healing process of soft tissue injuries and help arthritic horses in a different way than massage does.
I offer both together because I think it’s getting the best of both worlds, however one does not replace the other.
Both offer increase circulation, blood flow, decrease pain & inflammation, and while PEMF can help eliminate scar tissue pretty much anywhere, massage can as well in some areas!
So let’s remember to use highly trained professionals instead of constantly just having machines used on your horse’s, I bet you will learn a TON more about your horse’s body and if you have someone that do both it’s a huge added bonus!
