Sports Massage for Equestrians...
Caring for horses is hard work! For most of us it's a labor of love, but it can still be a fairly strenuous lifestyle, one that's often filled with long hours and occasionally sore muscles.
Getting fit and maintaining the strength and flexibility to ride to the best of one's ability also takes hard work and added committment.
Now more than ever, professional athletes are realizing that a complete workout is more than just exercising to get fit, it also requires care for the physical wear and tear that comes with strenuous work. Incorporating massage into your conditioning routine (whether it's for yourself or your horse!) has numerous benefits.
Sports massage is usually a more vigorous form of massage & can be used pre-event to warm up as well as post-event (or on a maintenance basis) and aids in improving blood flow and nutrient delivery (giving muscles the fuel they need), it helps in clearing metabolic waste, tension reduction, injury prevention, improved elasticity, etc.
I offer several Sports Massage options, including 15-20 min. chair massage as well as more complete table massage. Please feel free to contact me for details. -I do travel & can come to your farm, show grounds, racing venue, etc.
