This testimony is all to familiar. One of the comments made by most of my clients is “ they love having me come massage because I’m that second or third set of eyes for them”. I see my clients on a schedule and there are times when I see things immediately of the horse I’m about to work on.
Sometimes I see that they’re not standing square or they look uncomfortable as soon as I look at them I notice they are at the back of their stall. They’re not engaging with me leading me to believe they don’t feel well and sometimes I can see that they are in pain somewhere by their reactivity. The behavior is subtle sometimes but after the massage, we usually have a discussion about something that should be checked or followed up on by the vet or the Farrier or Saddle fitter and or chiropractic work. .
More often than not there is something to address. Horses like people have bad days too . But when it’s prolonged behavior start taking notes ! This lady didn’t listen to her gut instinct and her horse was talking out loud.
