      The purpose of equine massage therapy is to increase range of motion and stride length, pain relief, relief from restless and sleep disturbances, improved nerve function, stress relief, improved circulation, immune system, and muscle tone, reusing a variety of techniques. Circulation is improved which increases the flow of  oxygen and flushes out lactic acid which aids in recovery.  Massage methods aids in relaxation and promotes trust. 

     During my sessions, I use  my hands and knowledge to locate problem areas for my client. Each horse is different. After my evaluation, I utilize different methods to provide relief. This is a non-invasive and a very powerful therapy. Each horse will receive different treat according to their needs.

     BEMER therapy is a large part of my treatments.  BEMER is a class second FDA approved medical device for both humans and equines.  There are multiple studies to prove how BEMER helps equine with back soreness.  I, personally, have seen this in action!!!

How does Biofeedback work?

       All living organisms emit a very specific frequency. This frequency is created by the organism's organs and tissues working together. The LIFE system can read this energy and finds where the body is out of balance. After the analysis, the LIFE machine can emit frequencies to bring it back into balance. Two free healing sessions comes with each.

What is BEMER?

The word BEMER stands for Bio-Electro-Magnetic-Energy-Regulation. BEMER is an FDA approved class 2 medical device used for physical vascular therapy.  BEMER uses a patented signal, carried by PEMF (Pulsed Electro-Magnetic Field) to improve microcirculation, promoting blood flow in the smallest blood vessels.  After the first PEMF signal opens the way, the other 2 signals stimulate the smooth muscles of the capillaries.  Through this process, blood flow is improved which leads to healing. The effects of the BEMER can last up to 24 hours.  Longer that other PEMF systems plus goes deeper.  BEMER is the only system FDA approved.  The only product similar on the market is the Magnawave but the frequency used by the Magnawave is higher than BEMER(much above the Earth's magnetic field).  The link below will take you to my site where you can learn more!!!
