WHAT TO EXPECT
An initial session, which includes a full assessment and massage, lasts approximately 1 hour and 30 minutes. Follow-up sessions are typically 1 hour, although the duration may be adjusted based upon the specific needs of your horse.
During the assessment, your horse will be walked, trotted, observed turning circles, asked to move backward and if necessary lunged. A thorough palpation will also be performed to ensure a complete evaluation. For safety, handlers are advised to wear a safety hat and gloves during these activities. Choosing not to follow these recommendations is done at the handler's own risk.
After the assessment, your horse will receive a personalized massage treatment, targeting all major muscle groups and incorporating stretches. Special attention will be given to areas of tension or tightness to enhance your horse’s physical well-being.
Following the session, you will receive a detailed report outlining my findings, treatment recommendations, and suggested activities you can perform to support your horse’s ongoing care.
The cost of a routine sports massage therapy session is €60 (minus any current offers). Payment is required at the time of treatment.
