This morning was about making me feel human again and not being in pain each time I stand up. I used to have regular massage treatments but my therapist moved on to pastures new. However, Kay is now back in business. 🥳

Today, I learnt that maybe I should have found someone else during Kay's absence from treating, but when you have a therapist you trust and who knows you, it can be difficult to even begin looking for a replacement.

I was more than excited when Kay announced that she was starting up again, and today was the start of me taking care of me again. At the moment my muscles aren't impressed with having been manipulated after such a long break but in a few days I know I will feel the full benefits.

🐎 Therapeutic Ultrasound Treatments Now Available 🐎

Therapeutic ultrasound is a non-invasive treatment tool widely used in equine rehabilitation. By using sound waves that pe*****te deep into tissues, it can help:

🔹 Promote healing – increases blood flow and nutrient delivery to injured areas.
🔹 Reduce pain & inflammation – helps calm irritated tissues and speed recovery.
🔹 Improve flexibility – softens scar tissue and enhances range of motion.
🔹 Support tendon & ligament rehab – often used in recovery programs for common injuries.

Sessions are comfortable for the horse, and can be tailored depending on whether the goal is pain relief, tissue repair, or long-term maintenance.

After riding do you spend time giving your horse a groom❓

⏳If you only have time to focus on one area after you have ridden, I would advise spending time grooming the saddle area.

When we put a saddle on our horses and then sit on it we restrict the blood flow to the tissue underneath. This happens even if we have a saddle that is the absolute 👌 perfect fit.

When we have finished riding and remove the saddle our focus should be on restoring the blood flow to the area therefore increasing the oxygen and nutrients being delivered to the muscle, fascia and skin.

You can do this by...
🔷️ using your hands or a brush to stimulate the area.
🔶️ gently using a rubber curry comb over the area in a small circular motion.
🔷️ using a massage mitt with roller balls over the area.

🐴 By giving your horse a few extra minutes to revive the saddle area you will help to prevent muscular and fascial tension and aid general relaxation.

Buzz enjoyed a massage treatment yesterday, after various happenings meant he hadn't had one for a good few months. Yesterday, Buzz really relaxed into his treatment, more than he has done in the past and had some amazing releases asI worked on some trigger points within the muscles. To finish the session Buzz enjoyed some essential oils, his neighbour, (Patch) got in on the essential oil action to 🤣

Beautiful Bam got super in the zone during her treatment this morning. I think it is probably the most relaxed I have ever seen her. She also enjoyed some crystals after her massage. And, we beat the rain 🌧

Rico was another of my treatments on Friday, he became really evasive and was clear from early on that he wasn't up for a full craniosacral session. Listening to what he was telling us we didn’t pursue a full session and left him to try again another day.

On Saturday morning I was sent this picture and the following message from his owner... "I know you didn’t give Rico a full treatment yesterday but he seems really different today 🤷🏻‍♀️ maybe he took from the others… Sebbie is much more relaxed 😍###"

It is amazing how much of an effect gentle body and energy work can achieve even when it looks like ot isn't being accepted.

How it all began.

I am a fully qualified, experienced and insured holistic equine massage practitioner and owner of Centaur Equine Massage Training.

I offer remedial, healing and sports massage treatments, which include traditional massage techniques, myofascial release therapy and cranio-sacral therapy, meridian therapy, trigger point therapy, red light therapy, heat therapy (Epiony heat pad and thermal wand), fascial edging and kinesiology taping. This means that I can tailor each treatment to suit the needs of each individual horse that I treat.

I became interested in equine massage through the love I have for my horse, Jess. I have owned Jess for the past 18 years and throughout this time Jess has suffered with intense back problems due to her previous working life. After using many different options for treating these problems I found that massage was the most effective for her needs, causing a total state of relaxation of body and mind allowing the muscles to relax and begin to repair themselves. This type of treatment kept Jess comfortable and in work when I had begun to think that my only option for her was retirement.

Having watched the effect just hands can have on my beloved mare I decided that I would like to train and qualify in equine massage so that I can help her continued recovery as well as helping many other horses in this way. Alongside my equine massage business I also began tutoring equine massage before launching Centaur Equine Massage Training to help more people achieve their goal of becoming equine massage practitioners.
