Horse Massage for Horse Owners: Improve Your Horse's Health and Wellbeing

Has really helped me care for my mare

Fascinating information. It opened a whole new level of communication with my horse. I liked it so much I immediately signed up for a Masterson Method Weekend Seminar.

Wonderful book - great information!

I was really impressed by this book. Written clearly, with relevant illustrations that reinforce the text, it tells you what to do and explains why. I enjoyed learning a bit more about the horse's anatomy and it made it easier to understand the massage. The techniques do take some practice - my forearm and partner are as well massaged as the horse! - but they get easier. My older mare certainly enjoys the sessions and it seems to give me feedback on how she's feeling. I think she's moving more easily too. Our horses have benefitted from treatment from both physiotherapists and osteopaths previously and this would in no way replace their expertise, but would hopefully be a useful adjunct. The FAQs are informative and the prompt section a useful idea. The book is great for amateurs like me but I feel that professional riders may find it of interest as well.

Very good
