The BEMER is a Pulsed Electro Magnetic Frequency blanket that is designed to fit your horse and provides a multitude of benefits.
The BEMER Horse-Set has been proven to have a positive impact on your horse’s body. It strengthens your horse’s health in terms of prevention and promotes regeneration after illness. It improves suppleness during training or when preparing for competitions. It can also provide valuable support during the healing process, including recovery from muscle tension or tendon/ligament/muscle injury.
BEMER sessions are not considered as performance enhancing by as it uses the bodies own systems to increase performance using its own processes without the addition of any outside substances.

Kinesiology Taping is an excellent addition to your Bodywork Sessions. It can be used in both therapeutic and training methodologies.
Benefits to K-taping sessions include reduced reactivity, Long term muscle assist for training, muscle relaxation, long term gentle myofascial release, support for joints and injuries including SI joints and legs, spot decompression for injuries and lymphatic drainage.
I use various types of tape available on the market that has been specifically designed for horses and include both Hestaband and Equine-tape. These tapes are made to provide both support and full range of motion for horses and can be applied for various therapies.
Once applied your tape can last up to a week and can be re-applied as needed to achieve the results that will best benefit your horse. If it is an application that will need to be re-applied regularly, I will be happy to show you how to apply the taping pattern and you can purchase a roll of tape to have on hand!
Saddle fit is often a contentious issue! As a professional Bodyworker there are signs that I see when working on your horse that hint to me that your saddle may not be fitting quite right. An ill fitting saddle, regardless of the reason can cause lasting damage and behavioural issues with your horse.
Now we have an objective way to check how well the saddle fits both you and your horse! This is a perfect service for us to check your saddle between official saddle fit appointments that I am proud to be adding to our roster.
A 30 minute ride in all paces with the impression pad under the saddle will tell us if the saddle is creating excess pressure on the horses back or withers.
