THE HORSE
Everything about these animals AMAZE me, they give to us unconditionally and that is why I LOVE what I do. Every horse tells a different story, the look in their eyes and the reactions in their body astonishes me each time. Horses have a unique way of showing where they hold tension and how they release it constantly teaching me about our equine partners.
THE MASTERSON METHOD
An integrated system of equine bodywork that requires your horses participation. It's not something we "do" to the horse, it's a partnership between horse and bodyworker. FOCUSING on the horses reactions and working above their bracing mechanism in order to allow them to release tension in key junctions of the body. A very soft, and non-invasive approach where immediate results are felt and seen.

I've been in love with these majestic animals as far back as I can remember. The sound, scent and visual of pulling up to the barn is the most soothing part of my day. I began my horsey life as a Hunter/Jumper, moved on to Eventing and now enjoying Dressage with my Dutch mare Roxie and developing my young OTTB girl Rensi.
I was certified in Equine Sports Massage Therapy 17 years ago and have been continuing my education with horses and therapy ever since. I am a Masterson Method Certified Practitioner which has been life changing for me and the horses I work on.
I am a forever student of the horse, continuing my education in all aspects of horsemanship, biomechanics and physical therapy to help heal the mind and body of our equine athletes.
