Canterbury Equine ConTact CARE

29/09/2025

What an awesome weekend filled with amazing learning ❤️🐴❤️ Thank you to the amazing Camille Nelson for bringing the ConTact C.A.R.E Foundation course back to Canterbury (after a 4 year hiatus!), the talented foundation students who are so eager and keen to learn, the wonderful ladies Tayla and Anna who provided us with their lovely horses for the students to practice on, and Copper Creek Quarter Horses for use of their fabulous facilities. Thoroughly enjoyed it, so weird being on the other side - feels like forever ago that I turned up to my first foundation course. No idea what to expect and wow - what a profound rollercoaster this journey has taken me on. Can't wait to see how these students progress, and how Contact CARE continues to evolve and grow. ❤️🐴❤️ Now to get back to you all!

Had the pleasure of seeing this little man today, with some phantom pains that is sending him and his mum to the vets at 2am! Managed to release a very heavy and flintchlocked pelvis.Not being a vet, I'm unable to diagnose anything legally, but I have my suspicions! Thanks for trusting me with the little guy ❤️🐾

🌟 Giving the pressure somewhere to go 🌟

Suffering with fatigue? Headaches? Sleep issues? Pain? Niggles? Aches? Confusion/dizziness/vertigo? Depression / anxiety? Migraines? The list goes on.

This lady came in with neck and back pain, after working consistently with anything and everything with no progress, decided to give ConTact C.A.R.E a go.

We worked through a horrific concussion from a car accident 25 years ago. I dont care what your doctor says - concussions dont just "go away." They govern SO much in our body, forever. Allow us to help you unravel that impact, to allow natural bio-mechanical function return to the whole body - not just the head.

❤️‍🔥🌳🌬🌏🔥🌊

Awesome Horse & Rider session this evening with Maisie and her beloved Lad.

The wind wasn't in our favour, but with every Contact Care session - we work with what we've got, and pressure changes as you work through the session. We get what we need and boy, did we need some environmental pressure for that one.

Performance session for these two as they head into Pony Grand Prix and Maisie heading into Junior Rider this season, everything's heating up!

We managed some amazing releases for both Maisie and Lad, helping them become a much better partnership ❤️🐴❤️ Softer and relaxed ❤️

Cant wait to see what these two achieve this season! Thoroughly enjoy being on your team 👌👍❤️🐴

The best way to end a Friday!!

Huge Concussion treatment for this client last week. 8 days later, the best feedback ever. She started with a few days of integration where everything felt a bit off (which is totally normal!) And is now thriving with change and progress.

Doesn't matter how long ago a Concussion was had, the affects it has on our body's overall ability to function is massive.

Book today to give the pressure somewhere to go 🙌

❤️❤️❤️🌻

🌟 Yes, I also treat people and riders 🌟

I get this question a lot, but yes! I can see people anywhere with my mobile table. Outside sessions are the best ❤️ but I also have space at my North Loburn home to see you too!

At some stage I will drop the "Equine" from my name, so everyone is aware I can see people and dogs too.

It doesn't matter when you were impacted by shock, trauma and/or injuries, let me.help you release trapped pressure from any stage of life.

PM me, ConTact C.A.R.E may be able to help you with;

- Concussion
- Headaches / Migraines
- Poor sleep
- Stress / Anxiety / Depression
- Imbalance / Co-ordination
- Mental / Emotional shock
- Back, Neck and shoulder pain (including frozen shoulder)
- Breathing issues

The list goes on!!! Reach out & remember we move away from pain to find the CAUSE. The symptoms are just information to what's actually going on in the body.

Give the pressure somewhere to go ❤️🐴🐾🙋‍♀️🙋‍♂️

Another absolutely MASSIVE weekend ❤️🐴❤️

The most incredible clients, humans and horses alike. So much change, so much pressure dropped. So many integrated sessions where everyone needed to be involved. Riders being treated after booking their horses in, as the pressure was coming from the rider and their injuries.

So stoked and grateful to have Isaac here from up north. Working with another practitioner is such a buzz. The flintchlocks that present when it has this much support is unreal.

He's not finished yet! Isaac is setting off into the country side to see a few more of my incredible clients horses tomorrow, they are so lucky ❤️ (I have another job! So I will be living vicariously through him tomorrow.)

Thank you Canterbury ❤️🐴❤️
