Emma Holden Equine Massage & Sports Therapist

Emma Holden Equine Massage & Sports Therapist Hi everyone, just a little snippet about me.... I have ridden and owned horses for over 36 years. They, along with my daughter are my passion in life.

I graduated from Wolds Equine Sports and Rehabilitation Massage to become an equine massage therapist.

**** Appointments available****

Not posted for a while due to being super busy but I do have appointments available in August and September.

I've heard of quite a few horses struggling with laminitis due to the unusual weather we had earlier this year.

When horses are on box rest their whole system starts to deteriorate. As exercise is non existent or limited due to hoof issues a massage will help reduce swelling in the legs and will promote the movement/release of toxins in the horses system that can cause swelling. It will also help to reduce muscle wastage.

I specialise in helping those who have been stabled for long periods of time who cannot exercise due to needing rest.

I also offer sports massage to those who are in work weather they are happy hackers or top sports horses. All horses are assessed as individuals and a tailored plan is put in place.

If you would like to book an appointment please drop me a message or give me a call on 07436338316.

****April / May appointments available****

As the winter months 🥶 are coming to an end and spring is well and truly here lots of you will be preparing for the show season.
There are lots of horses and ponies that have stabled for long periods with limited time for leg stretching in the field due to the weather etc.

Now is the perfect time to book an equine massage to ensure your horses are in the best condition before the shows, and turning out in the field. Most injuries occur when horses are turned out after spending the winter indoors. We also start to work them more as the nights become lighter and we have more time to ride. Muscles change and become weaker due to lack of movement and work.

An equine sports massage will help to relieve any tension in your horses muscles and keep them supple. It's really effective for their mental health too.

If you would like to book an appointment please drop me a message or give me a call on 07436338316.

Equine sports massage sessions are available for the coming weeks including evening and weekend appointments.

Why massage????
⭐ Assists in balancing the body as a whole, rather than each individual part.
⭐ Enhances performance, recovery, muscle tone and increases range of motion.
⭐ Reduces inflammation and swelling in the joints, thereby alleviating pain.
⭐Improves circulation.
⭐Promotes healing by increasing the flow of nutrients to the muscles and carrying away excessive fluids, toxins, and lactic acid.
⭐Helps maintain the whole body in better physical condition.
⭐ Helps maintain skeletal alignment, prevent injury and promote healing.

🐴Does your horse show signs of discomfort or distress when tacking up, riding or grooming?

🥶Has he/she been stabled for long periods of time due to the weather?

🦴Is the posture the best it can be?

🐴Have they had a previously badly fitted saddle or bridle?

🏆 Do you want to give them the best start to the show season and be in top condition.

All these are just some of the reasons why you should opt for a massage.
