Based
in Esher, Surrey (KT10), UK
 February 2010: Please note that my clients' list is currently full.Horses
are athletes . Each equestrian discipline puts pressure
on specific joints and muscles which in turns affects their
performance and well being.
I
offer two types of treatments which separately or in combination
will help your horse to feel and perform better: Equine Sports
Massage and Equissage Physiotherapy.
Both
therapies help to prevent injuries, speed up recovery, address
areas of tension, stiffness and relieve pain.
Equine Sports Massage Therapy
Massage
is the manipulation of the soft tissues of the body. This
is a deep tissue, hands on,
full body treatment using techniques such
as effleurage, tapotement, pressure points and stretching
to assess and relieve muscles, tendons and ligaments.
It assists in injury prevention and recovery
by addressing muscle spasms and areas of stiffness, tension
and discomfort. It is an excellent aid to training for equine
athletes from all disciplines.
Equissage Physiotherapy
Equissage
is unique: it is the only custom built machine designed for
equines using the cycloid massage system. ‘Cycloid’
massage is a physiotherapy tool originally developed for humans.
It helps to stimulate circulation to affected
areas, encourage the healing process, reduce swellings
and loosen up joints.
Please
don't hesitate to contact me for
appointments or if you have any questions. Thank you to
all the clients who have kindly agreed to share photos of
their horses on this website.
