One of the main challenges we face when working on older horses, is keeping them well conditioned.That is because the older they get, the harder it is to keep them active. The 3 main modalities we focus on when working with older horses, are Massage, Subtle Muscle Release and Reiki or Energy Healing. By combining these 3 simple but extremely beneficial modalities together into a regular routine, we can help older horses to be more active and improve their health overall.
Here is what one of So Cal Equine Massage’s clients had to say in her own words, after hiring Adrienne, to create a healthy routine to get her horse back in shape:
Dinkey. and her owner Megan
Part of the challenge in managing an older horse is keeping her routine fresh and making sure she is well conditioned so she doesn’t lose her muscle mass. Adrienne worked on my 27 year old mare for several months, on a weekly basis and both my mare and I looked forward to her visits. “Dinkey”, in particular would walk to the gate when she saw Adrienne and often sighed while being worked on. She was much more supple and flexible post massage as well. From my perspective, knowing Adrienne, was coming, meant I didn’t worry about my horse at all that day. I knew she would have physical stimulation and relaxation. Having Adrienne massage Dinkey regularly, was one of the highlights of my 20 years with my horse. -Megan K. Seattle, Washington
By incorporating weekly massage, subtle release techniques and energy work into their normal care regiment, we have found great success, We have also seen an improvement in their muscle mass, their ability to maintain that muscle mass, not to mention major improvements in their movements and flexibility.
