I am an equine bodyworker and use the Masterson Method, a unique form of bodywork that uses the horse’s nervous system to help relieve tension in key junctions of the horse’s body to improve performance, communication and your relationship with your horse. I am extremely passionate about this work because I’ve seen first hand with our horses what it can do for a horse and horse and rider. The thing that I love the most about the Masterson Method is that it’s something that you do with the horse rather than to the horse which follows my lifelong commitment to horsemanship by continuing to learn and being the best partner that I can be for the horse. I work with a wide variety of equine breeds, ages and disciplines: performance, pleasure, lesson, working, therapy, pasture, etc. Bodywork benefits ALL horses, no matter what their job is....
