23.01.2022 This little cutie enjoyed his treatment today.
22.01.2022 It’s that kind of night!
22.01.2022 Jack and I are getting back into riding, I am taking it slowly with him as he can get overwhelmed and anxious when he is under pressure. So today we did some gentle on ground exercises then I sat on him bareback to see how he would respond. The reason for this is because Jack has been resisting coming to the round yard since I put a saddle on him. Before then he would come to the round yard willingly. I want to see if he responds differently with less pressure and no saddle. Today he was awesome! So proud of him.
21.01.2022 Fern was very excited to see me last week for his second Treatment, I was greeted with this smile, a wagging tail and some kisses. He was so relaxed During The treatment he fell asleep after 2 moves. Before his first treatment Fern was having trouble jumping up onto the lounge and bed, he also has separation anxiety and can be quite hyper at times. Since the first treatment Fern has been more relaxed and settled. He is jumping onto the bed and lounge much easier too. So lovely to hear of these wonderful changes.
18.01.2022 Hi Everyone, I have finally taken the plunge and created a business page! We all love our animals. Why not treat them to a Muscle Release Therapy session (The original Bowen Therapy for animals). ... Call to book an appointment today.
18.01.2022 During EMRT and CCMRT treatments we give the body breaks. This allows the body to process and make the changes it needs to rebalance. The video below is of a horse during a break in the middle of an EMRT session yesterday processing.
17.01.2022 Meet Wat. Wat is an exceptional polo crosse and polo horse currently on a break as she is pregnant with her first foal. I am very excited to be treating her during her pregnancy and am very excited to meet her foal in September. I will post updates of Wat over the coming months.
15.01.2022 This post is in regards to the importance of LISTENING TO YOUR HORSE WHILE RIDING. Today was a cracker of a day so the family and I headed out to where my horse is agisted. Who wouldn't want to go for a ride on a day like today! He has been progressing really well each time and given I am not able to ride him often at the moment I am really happy with how he is going. ... So I did what we normally do before riding and gave Jack a gentle warm up. I then hoped on his back and negotiated some new distractions like the kids running around and being noisy as well as having an audience while the other horses came to say hello and then stood along the fence watching. Jack was stellar in the new experiences until about half way through the ride when he started to become reluctant in moving forward. I did nudge him on thinking maybe he is trying to have his way. He started to get tense and was reluctant again to move forward. I asked him to move forward again and he had a slight jerk movement from his hind right leg. Again thinking he was trying to have his way I gently tried nudging him on and as he stepped forward I heard a clunk. This was the moment I got off. I gently walked him around to warm down and made some observations. His stifle was playing up. He has a weak hind right stifle from an old injury. So I fed him and gave him a treatment (something he doesn't get often these days!). During the treatment I addressed the lumbar spine for any tension or pain he may be experiencing, The Tensor Fascia Latae, In the words of Classical Horse Training by Thirza Hendricks...' as The TFL flexes the hip joint and extends the stifle whilst tensing the Fascia Latae and acts in opposition to the Semitendinosus that extends the hip and hock joints while flexing the stifle. It is also part of the myofascial Spiral Line and Functional Line that is related to the movement around the sagittal axis i.e., rotation of the spine as well as the Lateral Line which is related to the movement around the vertical axis. It has to work with the vertebral column both in extension and flexion. The TFL is also closely connected to surrounding muscles such as the Biceps Femoris, Quadriceps and it is considered to be part of the so-called ‘ventral’ chain which provides support and maintains posture.' .....I then addressed the quadriceps, gluteal muscles and the stifle as this is where the main issue was. Addressing the surrounding areas to the stifle helps to release tension and pain and in turn support the stifle. I took Jack back to his paddock and let him go. I offered him my hands as I said good bye and wished him well in feeling better soon. He graciously licked my hands over and over. (Such a beautiful thing.) When riding your horse and they tense up or are reluctant to move forward or just seem not right please get off for your safety and theirs. They may be in pain.
15.01.2022 These photos are before a treatment a few weeks ago and the after photos yesterday before the next treatment. In the first photo you can see tightness and rest...rictions through the neck, shoulders and thoracic sling area, wither, back, gluteals and hamstrings as well as sucking up in the abdomen area. He looks very rigid when standing. Emotionally he was a bit on edge and tense. The next photo shows releases in these areas mentioned, relaxed abdomen and stance as well as a shiny coat, hydration and suppleness of muscles and fascia. Emotionally he was relaxed and calm. The next photo Before treatment a few weeks ago shows tightness through the gluteals and sacrum affecting the pelvis, especially the right side and bunched tight fascia and muscle at the area of origin of The Gluteus Medius left side. The photo before yesterday’s treatment shows release in all the areas mentioned above. He was a much happier horse in body and spirit yesterday.
14.01.2022 I’m so excited to share...... ‘Wat’ the gorgeous Polo horse I have been treating, has birthed her first foal like a rock star. She is an amazing mum and they are both doing well. Thank you Brooke Devlin from Infinity equestrian for the pleasure of treating such a beautiful horse. Second photo 2 days before foal arrived.
14.01.2022 Treatment vibes today. Animals and people Blissed out!!
14.01.2022 Call me crazy! I’m hitting the books again . This time Bowen Therapy for people.
12.01.2022 I arrived at a friends place on Saturday evening during the storm. This little girl was super Anxious. She had escaped from the back yard and when she came inside she was pacing and shaking. I brought her bed into the kitchen where I was sitting, she hopped onto her bed, So I quietly approached and gave her a couple of moves (which was all she needed). As I was doing the moves on her upper thoracic she melted into my hands and completely relaxed. How is this possible? ... When a gentle rolling move is performed on key points of the body, we access the ANS (Autonomic Nervous System). Nerve cells send a message to the brain and the brain sends a message back to the body and the body responds. In this case the body went from tense and heightened to calm and relaxed. Shortly after I found her asleep on my bed!
11.01.2022 I have posted about beautiful Juno recently. I wanted to share changes that have taken place during the last few treatments. The first photo was taken before the First treatment. As you can see she is very weak in her hind end. Her stifle turns out and her hind legs have trouble supporting her body. She is standing with her hind legs under her body to help keep herself upright. She also has weakness along the spine. Her elbows turn out and her shoulders are holding tight. Whe...n I first saw Juno she couldn’t walk for very long and had to sit down often. When she did sit she would sit mostly on the right side and her body would twist to the side so she could rest on the top part of her leg. When she got up she would use her whole body and a lot of her front end to get her body up. Before her 4th treatment I observed Juno.....sitting straight. Bum not quiet on the ground but...she was sitting dead straight. She also used her hind leg muscles to lift her hind end and body to stand up. Something I haven’t seen her do before. She can walk for much longer and further and she is more fluid in her walk and stronger and straighter through her whole body. During the last treatment I Did a short treatment to address her hamstrings in which she was tender. She will still need some more treatments but for now she has done a super job making great changes in her body. So proud of her.
07.01.2022 I have been meaning to write this post for a while now. (It is a bit of a long one but worth the read!). A couple of months ago I was asked to do a treatment on one of my regular clients, a warm blood whose discipline is dressage. I greeted the gorgeous boy and noticed he presented with swelling across the muzzle with the majority of swelling on the right side. The extent of the swelling appeared from and above the orbicularis oris (mouth) continuing along the jaw, facial cr...est, medial side of cheek and below the eye. There was slight swelling around the TMJ, parotid gland R/S and some tightness of muscles in the throat latch (there was no heat in swelling and breathing didn't seem impeded or changed at the time). His eyes were not as bright as usual and he was slightly off balance when walking down to arena but nothing of great concern and seemed to resolve when in arena and back in stable. (Please note as an EMRT Practitioner only my observations are given and any diagnosis is done by a vet and recommendation of a vet consultation advised). Shortly after the first treatment he was diagnosed by the vet with a sinus infection. The initial 2 treatments were focused on improving sluggish lymphatics in the body, helping to free up congested glands and aid in lymphatic drainage as well as releasing tight muscles in the neck and shoulders and along the thoracic sling as well as the TMJ (as this was a tender area). With the third treatment focused on releasing tight intercostal muscles and working on the respiratory area as he had since the second treatment been taking medication from the vet for his airways. I am happy to report the swelling reduced after the first 24 hours and after 2 days was nearly gone. After the second treatment he had greatly improved with owner commenting on his progress..... 'Your treatment has been amazing. My boy is fantastic, his body is changing, really swinging through, taken up connection and getting into more self carriage. Big break through. Breathing has improved. Thank you.'
05.01.2022 Such a beautiful day yesterday to be out in the paddock with the horses. Treating the gorgeous Wat. She was so relaxed. I was lucky enough to feel her baby move around a little during the treatment. Love that!! So special. Love my job!!
02.01.2022 Beautiful Juno was so loving throughout her treatment today. This sweet girl has a lot going on in her body and for the first few treatments could only handle a few moves. Today she managed a full treatment!!! A huge milestone! This is her zoned out in the middle of her treatment. It makes my heart so happy when the animals lick my hands, face or my arms During a treatment. To me it is an acknowledgment of changes and relief they are experiencing.
02.01.2022 Jack and I mixing it up a bit today with some ground work followed by some gentle riding bare back in a halter.
