equine massage
My scope of practice includes the following equine massage modalities:
● Swedish massage
● Trigger point and stress point therapies
● Myofascial release
● Performance massage
One big difference between human and equine massage is that it can take some time and rapport building with the horse
for them to understand and accept the concept of massage therapy.
In order to receive any benefits of massage, the horse must be relaxed and showing signs of consent. It’s ultimately up to them to participate in the session.
I will take as much time as needed to build rapport with your horse and earn their trust.
Every session includes a customized massage plan to support your horse’s needs.
My rate for equine massage is $70 per session anywhere in King County, no travel fees.
A single massage session can last between 30-90 minutes, depending on what the horse is comfortable with that day.
