Rider’s
Edge Integrated Equine Bodywork offers one of the most comprehensive
arrays of soft tissue modalities available for horses today.
I blend the different therapies I am trained in to achieve
the best results for your horse's health by keeping his body
balanced and in optimum working condition.
Each session is tailored to meet your horse's individual needs.
I begin every visit with an observation of your horse in hand
at the walk and trot. After the bodywork is complete, the
horse is re-evaluated for any remanding issues. You will receive
a written report of the session. Follow-up appointments are
made based on the findings. You may also request a copy of
my notes be sent to your veterinarian.
I am happy to work with everyone on the horse’s wellness
team including your trainer, veterinarian, farrier, saddle
fitter, equine dentist, nutritionist, chiropractor, acupuncturist
and any other caregiver whose input in necessary. This will
ensure that your horse is receiving the best care possible.

Initial
Evaluation and Bodywork Session - $125
This includes both a static and dynamic evaluation
of your horse in-hand (and under saddle if needed).
A complete bodywork session follows. Please a lot 2-3
hours for this appointment. |
Maintenance
Bodywork Session - $85
A regular session takes 1-2 hours depending on the horse.
Once your horse and I have gotten to know each other,
I can focus on the areas that need the most work. |
Pre
Purchase Exam Massage (please call for quote)
You want your horse moving as freely as possible for
prospective buyers and the vet check. This work a few
days before the pre-purchase exam could mean an improvement
in movement evaluation, flexion, attitude, and stamina.
|
Rehabilitation
Bodywork (please call for quote)
This is specifically for horses recovering from an injury
and must be requested by a veterinarian. Horses that
are injured 'protect' the damaged area by compensating
with different which increases the load on surrounding
muscles which often creates new problems. It is vital
to your horse’s full recovery that restricted
tissues are broken up and balanced is restored. |
Available
Services For Regular Clients |
Pre-Event
Work
The pre-event work warms and loosens muscles by increasing
blood flow and helping to ease any muscle tension. Increased
oxygenation leads to enhanced performance and shorter
recuperation time. |
Post-Event
Massage
During an event, a horse may have pushed
his muscles to the limit. The post event massage helps
reduce soreness and speed up recovery.

best to discuss your horse's health with your veterinarian
first. Bodywork does not take the place of veterinarian
care.
