What is The Equine Natural Movement Series?
 It is a type of Structural Integration that will restore elasticity, balance, grace and fluidity to your horse's body. It is the most powerful method available for restructuring and realigning the body.  Sessions unwrap and release any compressions (scar tissue) or adhesions that have occurred. This will help bring your horse into a more comfortable, confident, athletic willingness to learn and perform.  Each session will build upon the last. These sessions help horses to organize themselves so strides are longer, backs lengthen, gaits are smoother,  and have full range of motion. Your horse feels, looks, and moves better. The Equine Natural Movement Series also addresses any emotional trauma your horse has ever had.

What is the difference between Equine Massage and Structural Integration?
  Equine Massage Therapy treats stress and muscular tension. Equine Sports Massage is done before competition to increase circulation and body awareness. Massage addresses each single muscle that is tight. Structural Integration can do all that plus more. Structural Integration releases the fascia which covers the muscle. Fascia covers all the muscles and visceral organs.  By releasing the fascia it  the body  is able to reorganize itself back to balance. Structural Integration looks at the horse as a whole each session. In each session I am feeling for not only what is tight but what is causing the tension in the first place.  

Does my horse need Structural Integration?
I believe that Structural Integration can benefit all horses. If you are having a good show season and you horse still is not doing his best this can really make a difference. When you are at a show you want to do your best after training so hard. Structural Integration helps your horse be ability to show and train at his best. This is not just another "massage" for your horse. This is a therapy that can have not just permanent but progressive results.

Where does tension come from?
If a horse gets a cut on its leg, the horse has to stabilize the leg to limit movement. While the leg is stabilized the horse has to change the way it moves to keep weight off the leg. Even after the cut has healed the tension from stabilizing the leg and the pattern the horse developed for movement is still there. Same if the horse is lame on a leg. That leg has to tighten up to limit movement and a new pattern of movement is made. Also if a horse gets kicked somewhere, same thing, that area has to tighten to limit movement and new pattern made. So, through the years these patterns get embedded in the body. This bodywork gives your horse a clean slate. Structural Integration releases all the deep tension and movement patterns your horse has accumulated. Sometimes our horse wants to bend or collect but their body simply cannot.
