For more than 25 years of working with horses, my desire has been to enable these magnificent athletes to perform the work they were bred, trained, and love to do. I've managed performance horses in the disciplines of jumping, dressage, and racing. In the process, I have found soundness and fitness issues to be both interrelated, and crucial to the horse's performance. Achieving and maintaining optimum performance requires a systematic and collaborative approach. I believe Equine Integrated Bodywork creates an approach uniquely supportive to a balanced training program. This combination maximizes performance and longevity through fitness, correctness, and sensitivity to the horse's mind and conformation. The Right Touch provides owners, trainers, and horses with a best practices approach for supporting their athletic endeavors.
Equine Integrated Bodywork involves the synthesis if Equine Sports Massage, Equine Rehabilitation, and Equine Structural Balancing. this unique combination provides a myriad of tools for helping horses be more comfortable while improving performance. This type of Bodywork lasts longer than than many single modalities. Often Equine Craniosacral Therapy is used in conjunction with the Integrated Therapy, especially for horses with significant anxiety, attention deficit, or emotional trauma, as it seems to be very effective for reducing these issues.
The Right Touch provides students and interns a program that has proven successful and is based on best practices and sound horsemanship. Certifications can be earned in Equine Integrated Bodywork, which I taught at SUNY Cobleskill for 3 years
