A little bit about me:
Originally from the Netherlands, born and raised on the farm, Krista had a passion for animals early on in her life. She understands the importance of health and welfare and how they are one of the most important aspects of raising any kind of animal.
She became interested in horses later on in her adult life, always thinking that she was a few steps behind with people that grew up with horses. “I started a few riding lessons in 2013 but didn’t continue with them. I really enjoyed working with the horse on the ground as well. Putting my hands on their backs, feeling the many muscles, feeling their skin, and connecting with the horse on an energetic level”.
She boarded horses on her farm for many years and that taught her much more. Not just from the owners but from the horses as well. Getting to know the different behaviors, attitudes etc of each individual horse. “I love the smell of horses, it’s very therapeutic. I could never have imagined that my hands could heal a horse. It’s amazing to see how massage can help a horse”.
After completing her CCBW Certified Canine Body Worker certification in Calgary in 2015 she knew right away that she wanted to get the Equine course done as well. Unfortunately, life got in the way and it was pushed back year after year. Moving to Sask in 2023, she finally decided it was time to do it and became a Certified Equine Sport Therapist in 2025, a 2 year program, where she learned about a lot of different therapies: Massage, Applied Kinesiology, Saddle Fit, Acupressure, Magnetics and lots more.
To graduate, she had to complete 390 case studies in those 2 years, along with many other assignments. “An amazing program, Natural Touch Therapy Institute in Vanscoy, Saskatchewan, I would recommend to anyone interested in Equine Therapy”.
To many, Krista is known as “a lifelong learner”. Always picking up another course somewhere to broaden her knowledge in the equine industry.
After researching for a saddle fit assignment, Krista became more interested in what saddle fit does and wanted to learn about how to fit a saddle to the horse and rider. “We touched briefly on saddle fit in the CEST program, but I wanted to know more”. Krista is currently enrolled in the Certified Equine Ergonomist course, diving deep in the field of saddle fit.
Krista currently lives in London, Ontario with her dog Jax and her horse Big Momma where she has picked up riding lessons once again to better understand the world of saddles.
“My goal is to help horses and their riders. Therapeutically and through effectively evaluating saddles. No one wants to intentionally hurt their horses”.
Kremer Canine Bodywork and Kremer Equine Sport Therapy were merged and
Kremer Equine & Canine Therapy was born in 2026 offering Canine Massage, Equine Massage and Saddle Fit.
