Enhance Your Horse's Health with Equine bodywork!

Hi, I am a small-town girl with a lifelong passion for animals. With seven dogs, two cats, one tortoise, and two horses of my own, it's clear that I have a deep love for these creatures. They have been an integral part of my life for as long as I can remember. From rescuing various rodents to caring for farm animals, my mission has always been to assist those in need and alleviate their suffering. 

I have been involved in the veterinary field since high school and attended GCC right after to become a licensed veterinary technician. Having worked with small animals for much of my life, I have decided to embark on an exciting journey to start my own business, dedicated to helping horses in my community!

In the summer of 2024, I began exploring equine massage, which sparked a deep interest within me. I found the Equissage certification program in Connecticut, NY, and by December 2024, I proudly earned my certification as an Equine Sports Massage Therapist (ESMT).

I'm also on my journey to become certified in the Masterson Method. I completed the 2-day weekend course in April 2025 and followed it with the 5-day advanced course in June 2025. The next step is starting my fieldwork, and I couldn’t be more excited! There's a lot of work ahead, but I’m hoping to begin my first block of fieldwork in the next month or so.

My business mission focuses on alleviating pain in horses while enhancing their overall well-being and rekindling the bond they have with their owners. I aim to make my clients feel comfortable and ensure they fully comprehend the treatment methods I apply to their horses. Being a horse owner myself, I genuinely value the significance of the connection between owners and their beloved animals.

I grew up in North Java, where my grandparents, Grandpa and Grandma Brunner, gave my family land to create our home. On this property, there was a hill that bore the sweetest wild strawberries.

Countless childhood memories are tied to that hill. I recall taking nature walks and enjoying delightful, natural snacks, as well as joining my family to tap trees for maple syrup. I even had the chance to release a chipmunk I had rescued near that hill, allowing him to start a new adventure.

I shared many joyful rides across our land with my first horse, Daisy Mae, and my current horse, Pistol Annie (affectionately known as Noodle). It was also on that very hill where I had my first date with my best friend, who is now my husband!

That special hill has been an integral part of my life and has significantly influenced my identity. It is a true honor to name my business after this cherished place.

Thank you so much for your interest in my services! If you’d like to schedule an appointment, please send me an email to get started. Once we begin the process, I’ll provide you with a few forms to complete and return—these will be kept on file for future reference.

I travel to farms and meet directly with horse owners or barn staff. To ensure the best experience, I kindly ask that your horse be ready for the session upon my arrival, and that the massage takes place in a calm, distraction-free area.

Massage sessions typically last between 60 to 120 minutes, depending on your horse’s individual needs.

After each session, I complete a detailed form documenting the observations made during the massage.

Please note: It’s important to consult your veterinarian before scheduling a massage appointment to ensure it’s appropriate for your horse’s current health condition.
