Kaylie began her educational journey with a degree in Kinesiology from the U of A. She started her equine career path with Equinology's EQ100 massage/bodywork program as well as Advanced anatomy, also through Equinology. From there she went on to graduate at the top of her class from the BC College of Equine Therapy in Vernon. Through this program she learned about structural balancing, massage, nutrition, saddle fit, acupressure, applied kinesiology and many other sub topics.
From here she discovered cranial sacral therapy which has become her passion. She went to North Carolina numerous times over about a 3 year period to study the Upldedger Institute curriculum.
Cranial sacral is a very unique modality. The ultimate goal is to balance the central nervous system. But a secondary goal is to rebalance the fascia in the body. So fascia is the only system in the body that contacts every other system. Typically if you injure yourself, it is not just the area that you feel pain that is affected, you can disrupt your digestive system, lymphatic system etc because of those fascial connections. The fascia is also why, quite often if you have a massage or chiro, you might feel great for a few days to a couple weeks, but quite often you end up back in the same pain pattern.
Our bodies are constantly in a state of organized dysfunction. Something has an issue, so we bottle it up in Hope's of dealing with it later, which we dont typically do. We just keep compensating. So with CST we ask the body to disorganize (like cleaning a closet. First you have to pull everything out), and then reorganize in a functional manner. For the first couple sessions at least, sometimes the disorganization phase is messy. Sometimes they seem worse than they were before, until they can learn how to use their body in balance.
Kaylie works on anything from basic maintenance, to joint and back pain, neurological issues and behavioural issues.
She is currently also taking the animal osteopathy program through the London College of Animal Osteopathy. This is a >3000 hour course with a 300 hour thesis, and will certify her for horses and dogs.
She works regularly on horses, dogs and people, but also works on other animals such as sheep, cattle and cats.
Sessions take approximately 60 min.

I challenge you to take a look…at your horse’s face. Do you see any asymmetries??? If so, don’t panic. However, your horse needs help
What causes asymmetry in cranial bones?
A myriad of events can lead to a shift in cranial bones. Direct physical trauma, imbalances in the teeth/hooves, imbalances in other parts of the body, environmental and chemical exposure, emotional trauma.
How can asymmetry effect your horse?
Asymmetry in cranial bones can create excessive pressure in the head (headache), disrupt communication in the nervous system, cause lameness, reactivity in the head, spookiness, entrap nerves that can cause head shaking syndrome, and contribute to endocrine and metabolic dysfunction.
Take heart, the cranial bones are NOT fused, and we can rebalance them to restore balance and proper function in your horse’s body. In the picture below, you can see the lines of what are called sutures. These sutures are flexing and extending as cerebral spinal fluid is being pumped throughout your horse’s body. The pumping of the cerebral spinal fluid is supporting your horse’s nervous system…in essence, their whole body. So, if there is a disruption in this communication, you can see how this is detrimental to your horse’s health.
What can you do to help your horse?
Seek the help of a qualified Equine Craniosacral Therapist. Balance can be restored to your horse's cranial bones, and their nervous system can begin to function properly to support overall health.
It would be my pleasure to be part of your horse's wellness team. Please reach out to see how I can help
