Pre-Booking Information
*BODYWORK IS NOT A REPLACEMENT FOR VETERINARY CARE*
If your horse is showing signs of lameness such as not bearing weight on a limb, reluctance to move, acute heat and swelling, or being unable to use an extremity, please contact your veterinarian right away.
Please make sure the horse's caretaker is there to assist with holding and moving the horse during assessments conducted in motion.
Appointments must be rescheduled if the temperature is -15 degrees or lower as it is too cold for body work.
To help horses that are very attached to other horses, please have a companion horse nearby during the therapy session.
Please ensure that the area is relatively flat ground and is dry and sheltered in case of rain.
LOCATION/atmosphere
Please have your saddle accessible for the initial appointment, improper saddle fit needs to be ruled out.
Please ensure that your horse is prepared and clean for the appointment, even if weather conditions are unfavorable, including ensuring they are dry.
