I’ll be away November 5–10 finishing the final level of Rib Entrapment Syndrome Therapy (REST) the last step in a journey that’s helped me take my work with horses to a whole new level. I’m so excited for this next learning experience and can’t wait to bring everything back to the horses here in Ocala!

I’ll be back in the barn starting November 11, and there are still a few openings that week (and more the week after). If your horse could use a reset before winter circuit, now’s the perfect time to get on the schedule.

As this month, and this year, start to wind down, I’m reminded how much change, learning, and gratitude have filled every season. Growth doesn’t happen all at once; it builds quietly, just like balance does.
From new faces to familiar ones, I’m so thankful for every horse, every session, and every conversation that’s helped me grow — both as a practitioner and as a person. Watching horses transform — finding softness, strength, and balance — will always be the most rewarding part of what I do.
As we roll into November, I’m excited to keep that momentum going with winter show prep, new opportunities, and continuing my education as I complete the final level of my Rib Entrapment Syndrome Therapy certification. I can’t wait to bring even more knowledge and depth to every session.

Wednesday Addams doesn’t do surface-level — and neither do I. Rib Entrapment Syndrome Therapy (REST) goes deeper than muscle work, addressing the fascial lines and structural imbalances that quietly affect posture, stride, and comfort. It’s precise, methodical, and a little intense — exactly how real progress is made. Bodywork isn’t about pampering or guesswork. It’s about listening to the body, finding the restrictions that hide beneath the surface, and helping the horse move and feel better through true balance. When your horse feels possessed, start with the ribs. 🩶 📲 Contact Rachel at 954-821-8966 to schedule a session. 📍 Based in Ocala | FEI Permitted Equine Therapist

Even the best-behaved horses can feel like Jack Skellington after a long show week — stretched thin, stiff, and a little spooky.

Massage isn’t just pampering — it’s performance recovery. It helps release tension, increase circulation, and restore comfort so your horse can move fluidly again.

Because every “Nightmare Before Christmas” deserves a happy ending — and a looser topline. ✨

Because wellness isn’t magic — it’s maintenance. ✨
No tricks, no hauntings — just sound, happy horses that move the way they were meant to.

Curious about PEMF and what to expect after a session? ⚡️

PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) therapy helps increase circulation, reduce muscle tension, and support natural recovery at the cellular level.

After PEMF therapy, horses can respond in two main ways — both completely normal and positive:

🐴 Calm and Relaxed:
Many horses feel soft, sleepy, or “melted” right after their session. They’ve just experienced deep muscle release, improved circulation, and nervous system regulation. You might see licking, chewing, yawning, or even a good nap afterward as their body processes the changes.

⚡️ Energized and Ready to Go:
Other horses feel refreshed and more forward the next day — like they’ve had a great massage or body reset. With improved oxygenation and less restriction, movement feels easier, leading to a more powerful and balanced way of going.

Both responses are normal — it simply depends on what their body needed most. Some horses need rest and reset, while others feel ready to get back to work right away.

Afterward, you may also notice:
• Looser, more fluid movement under saddle
• A calmer, more focused attitude
• Increased hydration needs (so always offer fresh water!)

PEMF isn’t a trick — it’s a powerful, science-backed way to help your horse recover faster, move easier, and stay sounder through consistent care.

Each time I work on a horse, I think about gently peeling back another layer, helping them find balance, release, and trust.
When the ribs move freely, everything else begins to fall into place: posture, bend, stride, and even a horse’s confidence in their own body.
It’s never just one restriction. It’s layers of tension, imbalance, and compensation that develop over time. Each session helps unwind those layers, restoring mobility, comfort, and trust.
When a horse feels restricted, they can lose confidence in their balance and movement. As those layers release, they start to believe in their body again, moving with softness, ease, and self-carriage. This process takes time and patience. It isn’t about quick fixes; it’s about teamwork, consistency, and earning trust one session at a time.
When owners and trainers invest in their horse’s comfort and long-term soundness, we create space for genuine progress. In this photo, there’s a lot happening, and it didn’t develop overnight. It won’t be resolved in one session either. But with each visit, as we chip away and build trust, both in me and in their own body, the horse begins to move differently, carry themselves more confidently, and rediscover balance. We’re so lucky to share space with these incredible animals. It’s inspiring to see owners who listen to their horses, try new approaches, and commit to long-term wellness.
What you’re seeing here isn’t magic. It’s the body rebalancing itself as those layers start to let go.
✨ Wellness that works as hard as your horse does.
