In 1995, Michelle went to an equine massage school in Ohio.  She is certified in Optissage. It has been so beneficial to the horses in training.  The  benefits  of  massage are  both  physical  and psychological.   The goal   is  to  reduce  the  mental and  physical  stresses  for the  horse while in training.    For a win-win situation!

Their are no charges for massage for training horses in the barn.  Massage is used when needed.  A extra bonus when having a horse in training.

In performance horses, massage enables the horse to compete to its full potential by increasing circulation, removes  toxins  including lactic  acid  build-up.   Enhance muscle tone, relaxing muscle spasm and increase the range of motion.  Massage can help to prevent injury while training. 

Just last year Michelle took a aroma therapy class for horses and has learned so much from the animals she works on.
