💪 MUSCLE MONDAY | GLUTEUS MEDIUS

AKA the powerhouse behind the hind end.

If your horse lacks impulsion…
If your hips feel unstable…
If your dog bunny-hops instead of drives from behind…

This muscle deserves your attention 👀

The gluteus medius (or middle glute some call it) is one of the largest and most powerful muscles in the horse’s body — built for propulsion, acceleration, and serious athletic effort. In humans and dogs, it’s the key stabilizer that keeps the pelvis level and movement efficient.

When it’s strong and functioning properly:
✔ smoother transitions
✔ better push from behind
✔ improved pelvic stability
✔ less strain on the low back and knees

When it’s weak or inhibited?
The body compensates. Every time.

Strong doesn’t mean clenched.
Power doesn’t mean tight.
Control is what actually creates performance.

Now tell me 👇
🐴 Have you ever felt a horse struggle to truly step under?
🧍 Do your hips fatigue when riding or running?
🐕 Does your dog struggle with stairs or jumping?

Drop your species below — or comment the muscle you want next.

Save this one. Your future body (and animals) will thank you.

💪 MUSCLE MONDAY (…on a Thursday because vacation brain is real)

Apparently my spinalis was relaxed, my piriformis was on island time, and my internal calendar fully checked out 🌴😅

Missed Monday? Yes.
Still committed to Muscle Monday? Also yes.
this one is for you 🫶🏼

First day back in the studio after vacation and I’m officially returning to regularly scheduled programming — anatomy, movement breakdowns, and all the muscle nerd moments you secretly love.

Vacation mode was cute.
But I’m ready to:
✔ get hands back on bodies
✔ get brains back into biomechanics
✔ get everyone moving better again

If you’ve ever come back from time off and forgotten what day it is… welcome to the club.

Now that I’m back — what muscle are we covering next?
Drop it below 👇

And if your body (or your horse’s… or your dog’s) feels like it also just got back from vacation mode, you know where to find me 💆‍♀️🐴🐕

Back to work. Back to routine. Back to Muscle Monday — on the correct day next week.

Alright horse people, this one’s for the “why does my horse feel short in the shoulder?” crew. 👀

Today’s stretch = shoulder extensor / elbow flexor / carpus extensor combo.
Big words. Big impact.

As a Registered Equine Massage Therapist (REMT) through the International Federation of Registered Equine Massage Therapists, I use this stretch in treatment when I’m seeing:
• restricted reach through the shoulder
• shortened cranial phase of stride
• tension through the elbow + forearm
• horses that feel “stabby” in front instead of fluid

This stretch helps:
✔️ improve forward reach
✔️ support better shock absorption through the limb
✔️ decrease compensatory tension up into the neck + back
✔️ maintain elasticity in those hardworking front-end muscles

And for you as an owner?
This is GOLD for pre & post ride maintenance.

Pre-ride (after warm-up)
– Encourages range of motion
– Helps prep the limb for loading and pushing
– Great before flatwork or jumping days

Post-ride
– Assists in maintaining length
– Reduces post-work stiffness
– Supports recovery between training sessions

🚨 PSA TIME 🚨
NEVER. STRETCH. A. COLD. MUSCLE.

You wouldn’t go touch your toes straight out of bed and expect greatness. Don’t ask your horse to either.

Always warm up first:
• aggressive currying to stimulate circulation
• heating pad or blanket
• 5ish minute hand walk minimum

Warm tissue = happy tissue.
Cold tissue = cranky, reactive, protective tissue.

If you’re unsure how to perform this safely, don’t wing it. Ask. DM me. Book a session. Education + proper technique > guessing and hoping for the best.

Strong shoulders. Supple elbows. Happy horses.
Let’s keep them moving like athletes. 💪🐴

Drop a comment and tell me 👇

What stretches do you want to learn to help your horse move and feel better?

Neck? Back? Hips? Something specific you’re struggling with?
Tell me what your horse is doing (or not doing 😅) and I’ll build content around it.

Let’s make you more confident in your pre- and post-ride maintenance game. 💪🐴

Alright Loft fam… it’s Valentine’s Day. ❤️

And yes, love is cute.
But you know what’s cuter?

✔️ Booking the massage.
✔️ Doing the stretch.
✔️ Taking care of your horse before they start side-eyeing you in the cross ties.
✔️ Letting your dog have their red light throne moment.
✔️ Actually prioritizing your own recovery for once.

Love isn’t just flowers and chocolate.
It’s maintenance. It’s prevention. It’s showing up for the bodies (human + hound + horse) that carry you through life every single day.

So today?
Be someone’s Valentine… but also be your own therapist’s favourite client. 😌

Tag your ride-or-die.
Tag your barn bestie.
Tag the dog who runs your house.

And if you’ve been waiting for a “sign” to book?
This is it. 💌

With love from your cozy little loft where healing happens.

✨I. Never. Leave. Home. Without. These.
Small bottles. Big “holy sh*t my skin feels incredible” energy.

has been officially a non-negotiable in my daily routine since I found them while living in London, Ontario for school— at home, in the studio, and yes… even packed for travel! These aren’t cute-for-the-shelf products. They’re workhorses.

✨ Restorative Sea Buckthorn Serum and Cream– skin rescue in a bottle. Dry, angry, overworked skin? Fixed.
✨ Hyaluronic Acid Serum – deep hydration without the greasy “why did I do this” feeling.
✨ Secret Cream Body Butter and Facial Moisturizer– elite-level moisture. Clients steal this one mentally after one use.
✨ Burrific Heal-All Cream – cracked hands, irritated skin, mystery spots… gone.
✨ Body Glo Serum – glow without the slime. Soft, healthy, touchable skin only.

These are my personal favourites, used daily on my own skin and trusted enough to stock at The Loft studio AND online. If I don’t use it, I don’t sell it. Period.

If your skin is tired, stressed, dry, or just deserves better — this is your sign.

⚠️ Limited quantities available in-studio and on the website.

Stock up now! Don’t wait on better skin. You will write me a thank-you note later 😌✨
