There’s a quiet kind of magic in the bond between a horse and a person.
It’s not built on words, but on trust, patience, and shared moments where hearts seem to beat in rhythm.

A horse doesn’t care who you are in the world—they care how you show up in their world. When your hand rests on their warm neck, when your breath matches theirs, when they choose to follow you without a rope, that’s love.

It’s a connection rooted in respect, deep as the earth beneath their hooves, and as free as the wind that carries them across the pasture.

Filling my bucket with travelling, friends & family, a little work and exciting new projects 😉

I'm incredibly grateful for all the support over the past years from all of you. I feel very grateful and love my work- it's so rewarding being a part of your journey with your horses. 💚

Keep warm and I'll see you again in October. ☺️

ℹ️ Days like THIS 🌧

Why do we reschedule on days like this?

On rainy, wet and cold days We (therapists) like to reschedule your horses appointment.
This is because we cannot work in those conditions if no undercover area is provided.

I always like to do a full movement assessment and if we don't have an indoor arena or large undercover area the horses get wet.
Their muscular system becomes tight and sometimes shuts down to keep the horse warm and their metabolism going. 👌🏼

Chiropractic adjustments and proper massage therapy is not possible as we need the horses musculoskeletal system to be relaxed. We won't get the results we would like to achieve, a horse can get even more sore.👈🏼

If horses are comfortable and used to be in stables or undercover areas this is often a great option. However some therapist prefer open spaces to work in, also for safety reasons.

In the hopefully near future we will be able to work at our new farm in North Loburn- even on days like this 🌧 🤞🏻
We are planning on building a large undercover area and stables to be able to do the movement assessment and safe work area. We will offer our Solarium to all my clients 😊

Exciting times ahead 🥰

Wishing Everyone a wonderful Wednesday. Keep warm and provide enough hay to your horses 🐴

Our Story

Hi and welcome to my page, I'm Nele and I live in New Zealand. Originally I'm from the north of Germany. I grew up with horses and they have always been a part of my life. When I was a teenager I started travelling and I fell in love with Canada. I met this wonderful family and had the opportunity to learn more about horses. I started working on a horse farm close by, the Camelot Equestrian Centre which is owned by Carol Spratt. Carol was a successful junior hunter and jumper rider back in the days. She made herself a name as a coach and breeder. She gave me the opportunity to work with the horses and to increase my understanding for it. After I finished my school and college back in Germany I wanted to travel and learn more about life and horses. So I spent 10 months in Australia and had the opportunity to work on a pre-training race track just out of Sydney.

In 2015 I decided to move to New Zealand where I met my husband Josh. After I successfully graduated from Equine Chiropractor and Massage Therapy School in British Columbia/ Canada, I started my own business as an Equine Therapist & Naturopath. Following in my family’s foot steps and passion in helping and making a change in the animals well being. I have been travelling all over the world to get more experience, more ideas and a better understanding for horses. I'm learning every day with and about my horses. I think you are a life time student if you work with them and I had so much support from all over and can't tell how grateful I am for the great advice and help over the last years. Horses were always my biggest interest, but it was not just the sport I loved. More likely working with them and seeing the cooperation when they are happy, comfortable and healthy. There is so much gratitude and satisfaction, especially when you treat your horse well and look after them. That's why I decided to start a new career as an Equine Therapist, to help and support horse owner and to guide them through natural horse care. But especially to help the horses and to take pain or discomfort from them. Firstly I created this page as an exchange for everyone who would like to get a deeper understanding for horses, natural horse care and for those who would like to share. I called it “The Equine Happiness Project” to let people be a part of my journey in learning each day and getting a deeper understanding for horses. Furthermore it is all about the horses care, health and happiness. It is kind of a project for the horse and you, but only at the start until you get an understanding for natural horse care and make a change. I started my own business “Nele Svensson- Equine Therapy and Naturopathy”. I would like to be a part of your journey with your horse. To guide and support you, from the right boarding, nutrition, exercise to the right care for your horses needs. I will be travelling all over the world to work with horses and their owners on a yearly basis. On my Website will be a calendar where you can see where I am going to be next. Please contact me if you would like me to come and see you and your horse. I would love to meet you. Your Nele
