Woohoo! It’s official! Thank you Christina Naas and Equine Kneads for all your guidance and support over the past year. Never once did I foresee myself working as an equine massage therapist! I still have to pinch myself to be certain it’s real! I’ve spent the last 16 years learning how to be the best nurse I could be working in Critical Care, Emergency and Pediatrics. There are SO MANY ways those experiences will enhance my skills as an equine massage therapist! I’m looking forward to a whole new realm of learning and experiences!

Thank you, Michelle, for such a nice review on your super handsome Luca!

Review for Luca
I was very pleased with Heather’s work on my PRE gelding. After a long lay‐up period, Luca had some tightness in his TMJ area that Heather was able to soften for him. He also showed her his ears needed some care (who knew) and it was amazing to watch his eyes roll and widen as she gently worked with his ears. To
me, this spoke volumes that Luca trusted her so thoroughly to handle his ears like
that. I highly recommend giving your horse the gift of a bodywork session with
Heather.

It's so fulfilling making horses feel better! Jaxx is an absolute wonder pony. His mom had this to say about his massage session with Vim Equine Bodywork:

Review for Jaxx
Our little horse, Jaxx responded so positively to his first ever bodywork session. Skeptical of
humans by nature (we rescued him 4.5 years ago) I wasn’t sure how he would respond to an
equine massage. Heather’s approach was gentle and slow and Jaxx relaxed with her faster than
I expected and especially seemed to enjoy the work around his head and neck, with soft, sleepy
eyes and some big yawns. She found some very tight muscles between his forelegs that made it
difficult for him to stretch his front legs forward comfortably. One week later the resistance he
had shown in that tight area was gone. Jaxx would definitely vote “yes” for another session
with Heather.
