Different bodywork techniques; including sports massage, soft tissue mobilization, stretching, range of motion and positioning exercises, as well as focal point work (stress and trigger points) are combined to provide optimal support for horses working in every discipline. This unique hands-on system addresses the whole body, implementing specific manual palpation methods to assess soft tissue and
symmetry of muscle and structure, and utilizing detailed static and dynamic evaluation to inform the practitioner. As well as hands on massage, I also offer light therapy through the use of a Photizo Vet Care Unit
Light therapy works by restoring energy in damaged cells and increasing blood flow using highly beneficial wavelengths of red and infrared light. The function of a cell will be compromised after damage caused by injury, surgery, disease or if the body is slower to heal from conditions such as diabetes. When light therapy is applied quickly after acute injury, the process of cell death can be prevented which will lead to quicker healing and recovery following injury.
