Equine Solutions, LLC came about due to my desire to help the horses in my barefoot hoof care practice achieve a more comfortable, balanced state. I first pursued education and certification from Equissage California. After receiving certification as an equine sports massage therapist (E.S.M.T.), I continued my education through Rocky Mountain School of Animal Acupressure and Massage, to receive certification in large and small animal acupressure. I am continuing through their levels, now working on achieving an advanced certification. I also have level 1 certification in Photonic Light Therapy or cold laser therapy.
A typical equine sports massage will last an hour to an hour and a half depending on the issues the horse is dealing with. Your horse will need to be brushed clean and dry. The massage can take place in his stall or in cross ties. A quiet place where your horse is comfortable and relaxed is best. I offer sports massage alone, or combined with the other adjunct therapies as needed. Saddle-fit consultations are available anytime, and ill-fitting saddles are one of the most common causes of muscle pain.
