Relaxed muscles are more receptive to sensory feedback and can provide more accurate proprioceptive information.

Massage can improve proprioceptive information in other ways, too:

Tactile stimulation activates the sensory receptors, as do ROM exercises, increased circulation lead to improved nerve health and function and the increased attention elicited by focused attention on each body part can improve proprioceptive information.

Massage therapy is a great way to improve proprioception.

Some much needed shoulder, head, and neck work for this cute little mare 💗

This mare has been very stiff on her left side lately. Having trouble picking up her left lead and dropping her shoulder going into her barrels. I started by massaging and releasing built up tension in her left shoulder, which seemed to alleviate a good portion of her pain, but continued to work up her neck all the way to her head. The compensation from having limited range of motion in that shoulder was leading to muscle tension and tightness all the way up her neck and into her poll. After this session, Livvy is now back to running and feeling her best!

Some benefits of equine massage:
🦄 Removal of built up lactic acid and metabolic waste
🦄 Increased circulation
🦄 Relief of tension in the muscle tissue
🦄 Increased range of motion

🎉CHEERS TO STARTING MY CAREER🎉

I am finally all finished with my schooling and am now a nationally certified large animal massage therapist! I am still waiting on my Washington state license, but excited to have made it this far!

Thank to everyone who has supported me and followed me along this journey! I’m am so grateful and blessed to be making a career out of something I am now so passionate about.

Hello all!
I am here in CDA at the High School Rodeo and will be here all day today, tomorrow, and Sunday morning. I have a table set up with a small banner on it and am located along the fence, next to a Chevy pickup with a camper. I have a sign up sheet at my table with available time slots, I will not be accepting appointments through messages so please come find my table to sign up for a session! It’s best to figure out when you’re up in your events and decide if you want a pre or post-event massage for your horse. If you want a pre-event massage please be very cautious of time as each massage takes 1 hour and then I would add an extra 15 minutes for my palpation and intake questions.
Please keep in mind that I am still a student, currently in school to obtain my license for equine massage. These sessions are FREE! I am educated and have many sessions under my belt already, however this is my first time in an event setting so please bare with me!
