I hear this all the time:
“My horse just feels a little off…”

Not lame. Not injured. Just… not quite right.

Maybe they:
– don’t want to roll all the way over
– feel stiff or uneven under saddle
– pick up one lead easier than the other
– feel tight through their back or hips

These are usually early signs of restriction and compensation in the body.

The good news is—this is exactly what bodywork is for.

I work with horses to restore movement, balance, and comfort before small issues turn into bigger ones.

If something feels off, it’s worth looking into ✨

Message me if you want to get on the schedule.
Located in North County San Diego — I travel to local barns!

Day 1 to day 30. The power of removing an inflammatory diet 👏🏻✨😍 he’s been on 30 days of NO grains, sugar, fillers of any kind. Started him on a probiotic and herbal detox. Look. At. The. Change. 🥲
The proof is in the pudding. Can’t wait to see him in 60-90 more days! Now we can get to work with some weight and muscle 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

A little hello from your founder and the soul behind Tough Tails Equine! My sweet Louise is the main reason I wanted to become more of a member in the equestrian community. 🤍

I just wanted to say THANK YOU to all our clients, supporters, friends, and family. We are wrapping up the first full year of TTE and I am so grateful to each of you who’ve allowed me to work with your babies in any capacity. Whether it’s been bodywork, a nutrition consult, teaching you stretches, working through saddle fitting, etc. it’s been my honor to be a small part of you and your horses team. Let’s finish the year strong and ready for all that the new year brings. ✨

This healthy back has taken me a very long time to get here. She had prior back spasms, tightness, soreness, everything. I made it my goal this year to rid her of all of that.
With a good strong diet, consistent exercise, perfecting my tack, regular bodywork, and acupuncture she’s got a nice healthy strong back!!! 👏🏻🥹🤝

Tools I’ve used:
Red light therapy
PEMF blanket
Muscle spray
Routine acupuncture appointments (game changer!!)

We don’t deserve horses.

Some of the toughest creatures on the planet who, if we’re lucky, pour their whole soul into us. Give us their all. Even if it hurts or is sore, they don’t feel like themselves or have the energy. They show up. My goal in bodywork is to show up for them the way they do us. To show up tired, early, late, sore, or not my best. Because by the time I’m done I feel like myself again. I feel healed by healing them. My goal is to see the things you don’t usually notice or feel the things you don’t usually feel. So I can get to the root and work each bit that I can. That’s how I know I’ve done my job. I’ve released tension, trauma, pain, or a spot they physically can’t get to.

Bodywork, massage therapy, physical therapy is a marathon. Not a sprint. It takes time. It’s a slow burn. It’s the same as training a horse. I’m training their bodies to feel a different way, to relax and retrain their muscles and sensors to not be in a state of flight or fight and to check in with themselves in a way that can be overwhelming or hard to be vulnerable.

No matter what it is. How it feels. We take it together. If they are excelling and performing at their best, then so am I.

Chasing my dreams every day of the week. Little Hayley would be so proud.

June was a month FULL of nutrition consults and helping every horse feel their best from the inside out. Let’s see what July has in store for us 🤩🤍

Worked on the absolute sweetest thing today 🤍 Wally girl really warmed up to me at the end of our session and melted into my shoulder for her poll release. 🥹
Making even the smallest difference on them means the world to me. Thank you for letting me work on your girl today .eq 💛

A 1 year difference on an all forage, anti-inflammatory diet. 👏🏻🤩😮‍💨 mane and tail are LUSH, body is fully filled out - she is in fact NOT a hard keeper, hooves are growing, cycles are more natural and balanced, and she is more sound and sane than she’s ever been. Just to name a few.. This is the power of deep diving equine nutrition. 🥳🥰✅
