As the nights draw in, I hate to remind you, but we're getting ever closer to Christmas!

December tends to be a busy time for treatments, so if you would like to book in please pop a message over. Whether you're looking to address an issue with your horse or just would like some extra Winter TLC, I offer myofascial release and craniosacral therapy to lend a hand here.

Please ensure all horses are mud free and dry for treatments, so I may best assist 😊

To get a treatment booked or for more information, please send a message and I will get back to you as soon as possible.

Sometimes we need to sink even deeper into the treatment, focusing very closely. I know I may certainly go very quiet at times when feeling for minute changes and shifts in the horse before me 😊

Silence isn’t rudeness 🥹
As therapists, building trust and comfort with clients is so important, and that often starts with conversation. A friendly chat helps horses relax, owners feel involved, and creates the right atmosphere for a positive treatment session. We encourage this for our students when out working with clients.

BUT there’s also a fine line. During certain parts of a massage or rehabilitation session, complete focus and quiet are essential. These are the moments where feeling for subtle changes in muscle tone, fascial tension, or responses from the horse that require full concentration.

Silence isn’t rudeness, it’s respect for the horse and the work being done. It’s where we tune in and let the horse’s body tell us what it needs.

So, if you ever notice things go a little quiet during your horse’s session, know that it’s not because the therapist zoned out, it’s because they are fully tuned in 🙌

Finding that balance between connection and concentration is part of what makes each session so unique, and so effective.

Why arrange a bodywork session during the Autumn months?

• Changes in workload can lead to loss of muscular condition; bodywork aids recovery and adaption, reducing compensatory strain and identifying compensatory patterns during this transition.
• Horses with arthritis or degenerative joint conditions will often find them worsening at colder, damper times of the year. Bodywork techniques help maintain suppleness and fluidity in the fascia, along with reducing muscular tension and stiffness, supporting mobility.
• Rug use in Autumn and Winter increases, sometimes affecting scapular freedom and altering posture. Regular bodywork sessions will allow a therapist to detect asymmetry and aid in restoring balance and evenness in the thoracic sling and shoulders in particular.
• Bodywork techniques stimulate circulation, improving oxygen delivery and waste product removal.
• Synovial fluid in joints thickens in colder months, while bodywork techniques improve tissue temperature and circulation, maintaining joint lubrication and flexibility.
• Fluctuations in grass disrupt the digestive system, while compensations and discomfort from this may be soothed and relieved with bodywork techniques.

Bodywork sessions are not solely preventative but allow any issues to be identified early, before they become problems, all while horses are adapting to seasonal changes.

Please contact me to arrange a session, where I cover myofascial release, craniosacral therapy, EFTR and red light therapy. I am Daventry based, happy to travel, and available both weekdays, evenings and weekends, dependent on schedule.

Last weekend, I visited Abbotts View Livery for the lovely Oscar and Ellie. What a wonderful pair to be so settled in their treatments despite the high winds - and what a fantastic facility it is there too with the track system!

Excuse the very gusty photo 😊

My next visit to Aylsebury area (via Towcester and Milton Keynes) will be on November 9th, covering myofascial release, craniosacral therapy and red light therapy. Please pop a message over if you would like to book or discuss a session.

Had the pleasure of treating this lovely boy last week, who has some digestive system challenges going on. Always interesting finding where they hold different compensation patterns in their body as a result of (seemingly) something completely unrelated.

He released beautifully during his session with much more fluidity and softness restored in the hind end in particular.

I'm Daventry based and happy to travel, available for myofascial release and craniosacral treatments from September 30th. Weekends and evenings available also 😊
