Dog Massage (and Cats!)

When your pet hurts, you feel pain as well. Using the methods of myofascial release, massage and Reiki, I can support your dogs to get back to the things they love to do. These techniques can also

provide comfort to elderly animals
help prevent injuries
improve their behavior
when combined with veterinary care, help speed healing

Equine Massage

Horses are an investment in time, emotion, and finances. Make the most of your horse and avoid costly injuries, lost training time, and early retirement.

Maintaining your horse in peak condition, physically and mentally, will keep you advancing toward your goals.

Massage, myofascial release, and Reiki will ensure your progress and enhance your investment.

Currently, I specialize in old horses in pain. I'm happy to find you one of my skilled graduates for your sporting horse.

Workshops

Are you interested in hosting a workshop at your site? I offer two-hour workshops in dog massage and horse massage, Zoom or in person. I can tailor the workshop to your individual needs. I am also available for shorter talks or instructional lectures. This may interest you for conformation club meetings, equine clubs and other events. Contact me for further information and we can arrange a time that will work for you.

Energy Healing

Through energy healing, I can help your horse, dog, cat or other animal friend heal naturally by channeling their own internal energies and vitality. Targeted massage techniques, clearing of energy blocks, Reiki, and crystal Reiki can help release stressors in the spirit of your animal, allowing him or her to heal more naturally and on their own terms.

Reiki and energy healing are included in massage sessions. Distance Reiki and energy healing is available for both animals and people.
