Horses have taught me that direct pressure usually associated with massage may be too difficult for some to tolerate.The work that I do is very gentle and influences each horse to make internal adjustments so that restricted areas can begin to relax, which stimulates healing and a greater range of motion.
SADDLE FIT
Saddle fit is not just important, it is essential. The saddle fitted to your horse years ago may not fit today because your horse's body changes, as all bodies do. An ill-fitting saddle can create soreness you cannot see, but if it is allowed to continue, compensation can upset equilibrium and can make your horse stiff, cranky, and eventually sore or lame.
BUT if you as the rider are suffering from pain, and limited range of motion, it is very likely that this will affect your riding AND your horse's equilibrium.
