Based in the Berkshires of Western Massachusetts, I provide equine massage therapy to horses in Massachusetts, as well as in Connecticut and Rhode Island. I strive to provide comfort and improve the quality of your equine companion's life through the use of massage. I am a lifelong horse enthusiast and an equine massage therapist certified through the 200-hour program at the Bancroft School of Massage in Worcester, MA. I am also a freelance writer - please visit the "About Me" page for more information on my writing.

When a horse is in pain, their performance is
altered. Massage can help with issues such as:
