Welcome to On The Muscle! 

The term "on the muscle" is used in the horse business to describe a horse that's energetic, fit and ready to go!

My hope is that using equine body work and massage will help YOUR horse to be "on the muscle"!

Equine Body Work:

ü       Increases range of motion

ü       Improves stamina

ü       Improves disposition

ü       Provides comfort to muscle injuries

ü       Enhances performance and gait quality

ü       Improves circulation

ü       Reduces tactile defensiveness

ü       Accesses physical condition

ü       Provides ability to notice tissue changes at an earlier stage

 

 

Massage is used in conjunction with conventional and alternative health care, as well as proper training techniques. to enable the horse to perform at an optimum level.

 

Massage is NEVER a replacement
for proper veterinary care.

Fall 2011 -- the summer coats are falling out and being replaced by longer hair...a sure sign that winter is on it's way.   The good news is that the bugs are fewer.  The fly boots ended up being a big help this summer.

I have been busy playing with TTouch and Connected Groundwork and massaging horses this summer.  It's been very gratifying to have new clients too.

The Spine and Pelvis class in August was incredible!  I really got a better sense of the connectivity in the horses and get to play with some of the stuff they are researching  -- like using Kinesio tape on horses.  I don't think I can actually USE it with clients, lest I get accused of 'diagnosing' or 'treating' something, but it was fun to see it used.  

Right now I'm working on horses and helping organize a dressage clinic with Debbie McDonald, planning to attend another Tellington Method clinic in late October and working on a Centered Riding clinic in the spring! 

"Buck" comes out on DVD on Oct 4th....at least rent it and watch it, if you don't want to buy it.   It will go in my library!

Last but far from least -- check out the link to Skodes Horse Treats!!  Lori works with the best in the business to create healthy and beneficial treats for our equines.  Read her story, try her treats -- you'll be hooked!
