BODYWORKS

Equine Sports Massage. Functional Horse Training. Preventative Care.

This Is Our Story

Located in San Diego County, Elements Equine Bodyworks provides sports massage and western horse training services for the equine athlete. Our program encompasses correct movement and free communication between horse and rider. 

 

Massage therapy has been shown to be essential for preventative care.  By addressing your horse's whole body and paying close attention to behavior and under saddle traits, bodywork can provide the missing pieces to your horses overall wellness. 

What Makes Us Special

Certified Equinology Bodyworker

Over 500+ hours of education spanning: massage techniques, biomechanics, anatomy, functional movement, & hoof care.

Documented Sessions

Session reports are completed and sent after every massage appointment. Reports include before and after massage findings, including fully charted images for ease of owners understanding.

Science & Research Based Techniques

Massage therapy sessions are a combination of soft tissue mobilization, trigger point, range of motion, and positioning exercises.
Training sessions utilize gentle, proven techniques to establish a willing partnership between horse and rider.

I began using Natalie's services when my mare was having some obscure lameness issues.  Natalie was able to isolate her sensitive areas, which pointed my vet in the right direction to find the cause.  After some changes to her feet, and with the support of ongoing bodywork, my mare is on the road to recovery and feeling better every day.  In addition to providing overall health benefits, Natalie helped prevent my horse's issue from becoming a larger, more long-term problem.  She is great for helping a horse recover, but more importantly, her routine care can help address problem areas early on.  She is an integral part of my horse's wellness team!"
