Balanced Performance Equine Body Work
Welcome to Balanced Performance Equine Body Work! I'm so happy you are here. Take a look around.
But first, what is equine bodywork?
Equine bodywork is an essential component of your horse's health and performance. Using massage therapy and stretching exercises can help enhance the gait quality and overall performance of your horse.
​
Bodywork can also increase your horse's stamina, disposition, range of motion. This process helps relax the muscles and is used to prevent and heal muscular injuries.
Equinology
Bodywork Approach
Equinology is approved and recognized by the International Equine Body Work Association and Society of Osteopaths in Animal Practice.
​
My approach combines integrated sports massage. I use acupressure points, sports massage therapy, myofascial release, craniosacral, tens unit, stretching, cupping, and scraping. These gentle, non-invasive techniques are perfect for achieving musculoskeletal balance, reduce inflammation, and increase flexibility.
​
Equine bodywork is a hands-on approach using my hands, fingers, and arms. This hands-on assessment gives me the ability to feel soft tissue changes such as heat, swelling, and cold areas. Changes such as these could be evidence of strain or inflammation.

Equine CranioSacral Therapy
This therapy uses a gentle hands-on treatment method that focuses on alleviating restrictions to the physiological motion of the bones in the skull, including the face and mouth and the vertebral column, sacrum, and pelvis.
​
The CSI technique attempts to optimize the horse's energy to shine through the body's own ability to heal itself.
Bodywork Session
The Equinology bodywork session is unique in that it addresses your horses’ entire body. It includes an assessment of soft tissue, the symmetry of the muscular system, and overall structure. During the session, multiple techniques are applied, including sports massage, soft tissue mobilization, stretching, range of motion, and positioning exercises.
PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) Service
PEMF is a device used to encourage the body's natural healing process. It reduces inflammation and often improve a horse's overall performance, including speed and strength.
​
Many studies on PEMF have shown the system to not only improve the current healing process, but to also reduce the occurance of re-injury.
