Restore Balance, Relieve Tension, and Support Your Horse’s Natural Well-Being.
A dedicated 60-minute equine bodywork session focuses on the "whole horse," addressing both physical tightness and mental stress. By working directly with the soft tissue, this therapy helps your horse release the deep-seated tension that comes from daily work, training demands, or past injuries.
What to Expect During a Session:
Initial Consultation & Palpation: I begin with a brief discussion of your horse's history and a hands-on musculoskeletal assessment to identify "hot spots," trigger points, and areas of restricted fascia.
Targeted Soft Tissue Therapy: Using myofascial release, I manipulate the muscles and connective tissues to encourage relaxation and healing.
Nervous System Regulation: I monitor your horse's "releases"—such as licking, chewing, yawning, or lowering the head—to ensure the work stays within their comfort level and effectively calms the nervous system.
Guided Stretching: Controlled, gentle stretches are incorporated to improve suppleness, increase range of motion, and help maintain the benefits of the session.
Post-Session Care: You will receive a summary of the findings and specific "homework" exercises or stretches to help your horse stay comfortable between visits.
Key Benefits:
Improved Mobility: Loosens tight muscles and adhesions, allowing for a freer, more fluid stride.
Enhanced Recovery: Boosts circulation and lymphatic drainage to help muscles recover faster after strenuous exercise.
Pain Reduction: Alleviates the discomfort caused by muscle knots, scar tissue, or compensatory patterns.
Mental Focus: A relaxed body leads to a more willing and focused partner under saddle.
This session is ideal for performance horses needing routine maintenance, seniors requiring extra comfort, or any horse showing signs of "grumpiness" or resistance due to physical discomfort.
Equine Bodywork & Biomechanical Evaluation
Unlock Your Horse's Full Potential Through Precision Movement Analysis and Targeted Therapy.
This 90-minute comprehensive session goes beyond traditional massage by combining a detailed biomechanical evaluation with therapeutic bodywork to address the root causes of restriction, rather than just the symptoms. By analyzing how your horse’s body functions as a whole, I can identify subtle asymmetries and compensatory patterns before they lead to performance issues or injury.
What the Session Includes:
Static & Dynamic Evaluation: I begin by observing your horse's posture at rest and their movement in hand. This helps me identify irregularities in gait, stride length, and joint function.
Musculoskeletal Assessment: A thorough hands-on examination to locate "stress points," trigger points, and areas of myofascial tension or skeletal misalignment.
Integrative Bodywork: A customized blend of modalities—including myofascial release and soft tissue mobilization—tailored to your horse’s specific needs.
Range of Motion & Stretching: Targeted exercises to loosen tight joints, improve flexibility, and encourage freer, more elastic movement.
Professional Summary & Homework: A discussion of findings and a personalized plan of corrective exercises or "homework" to help maintain progress between sessions.
Key Benefits:
Enhanced Performance: Improved balance and fluidity for any discipline, from dressage to trail riding.
Injury Prevention: Identifies and resolves minor tension before it causes a breakdown in the horse's movement.
Pain & Tension Relief: Alleviates soreness from ill-fitting tack, demanding training schedules, or past injuries.
Mental Relaxation: Helps high-strung or "grumpy" horses decompress, leading to a more focused and willing partner.
Whether your horse is a high-level athlete or a beloved companion, a biomechanical approach ensures they feel their best and stay sound longer.

About me
Lifelong Passion Meets Science-Based Results.
Hi! I’m Jordan. It’s nice to meet you!
My lifelong passion for horses began as a child in the hunt field (where Second Flight Equine got its name!) and show ring, evolving through years of experience in fox hunting, eventing, and the hunter/jumper circuits. My journey has always been driven by a desire to provide better care for equine athletes, leading me to seek out a massage modality that was truly innovative and science-based.
Today, I am a certified practitioner of Freely Forward Bodywork, specializing in Myofascial Release (MFR). Unlike traditional massage, my approach focuses on the fascial system to resolve the root causes of tension through sustained pressure and a deep respect for the horse’s physiological feedback. By combining detailed biomechanical evaluations with targeted therapy, I help horses of all disciplines, from high-level athletes to beloved companions, achieve greater fluidity, comfort, and enhanced recovery.
