Restorative Strides

About

At Restorative Strides, equine massage is more than a technique—it’s a conversation between hands and horse. I believe in supporting the whole animal: body, mind, and spirit. Whether your horse is recovering, training, or simply deserving of the best care, therapeutic sessions provide deep release and gentle restoration.

Horses are incredible athletes, whether they are performance competitors, hardworking partners, or beloved companions. The physical demands of work, sport, and aging can take a toll on their muscles and movement. They can experience muscle fatigue, tension, and imbalances that can impact their comfort, movement, and overall well-being. Equine massage is a powerful tool that supports your horse’s health by promoting relaxation, improving circulation, and relieving muscular tension.

Benefits of Equine Massage:

• Enhance Performance – Increases flexibility, range of motion, and overall movement quality.
• Prevent Injuries – Identifies and addresses muscle tightness before it leads to strain or compensation issues.
• Support Recovery – Aids in post-workout recovery and rehabilitation from injuries.
• Improve Comfort & Well-being – Releases tension, reduces stress, and supports relaxation.
• Support Aging Horses – Helps manage stiffness, arthritis discomfort, and muscle loss, improving mobility and quality of life.

By incorporating equine massage into your horse’s care routine, you can help them feel and perform their best, ensuring they stay happy, healthy, and comfortable in their work and daily life. No matter their stage of life or discipline, every horse deserves to move freely, feel comfortable, and thrive.
