Maybe something feels 'off' in your horse, and that can't quite put your finger on?
-
Perhaps you want to know how they are feeling emotionally or physically?
-
Maybe you notice a block/issue that keeps re appearing in training and from day to day..
-
Perhaps they have moments of reactivity, or shut down, and you would like to support them to come back to balance.
​​​
Your horse will be met with calmness, respect, and is seen for who they are. Sessions are safe, supportive and horse first, without pressure, rush or judgement.
Each session is personalised to your horse to help them feel safe, and come away feeling themselves again. You may also come away knowing your horse more deeply. And have a sense of what they are thinking and feeling, and how you can support them.
​​​This therapeutic session supports your horse to get unstuck and feel more emotionally & physically balanced, through equine bodywork & trauma release techniques.
​​
​Equine Bodywork & Emotional Balancing Session
​
Techniques and approaches the session will draw on
​- Equine Massage Therapy:
Designed to bring balance to the soft tissues, relieving tension and promoting relaxation, nervous system regulation and physiological health. Facilitating deeper changes in the body.
​
- Fascial Trauma Release Techniques:
Fascia is the tissue that holds us together, storing memory, emotion, tension and trauma. Working with the fascia can be a powerful whole body reset and a powerful way to facilitate int
ernal and external change (Taught by Liza Kimble EFTR)
​
- Co- Regulation: ​
Being an anchor of safety for your horse, promoting emotional regulation and processing.
​​
- Consent:
Sometimes horses prefer working with more space. This is perfect for rehabilitating touch, and building trust and confidence.​
​
- Sound work:
The voice is a powerful source of safety and reassurance.

'Cat is simply magic there is no other word for what she does. My boy Alfie came to me as a shut down 2 year old having been through trauma at the hands of people. I couldn't help him process what had happened to him, enter Cat! The first trauma release session Cat did was unknown for all of us, but Alfie knew Cat was there to help and instantly connected with her and allowed her in. This alone is massive for Alfie to let a strange human into his space and be vulnerable. This was already testament to Cat's abilities with horses. Alfie and I already have a good bond but watching him go through this session and feeling him start to let go was mind blowing. 2 hours of going through it was emotionally exhausting for all involved but he felt a lot better afterwards
."I can't explain it in words the bond you feel afterwards and the weight that will be lifted from your horse. I have learnt so much in just two sessions with Cat and her brilliant workshops, it has all helped me to grow my relationship with Alfie. I highly recommend Cat and cannot thank her enough for the help so far.'
Alfie certainly felt different, lighter, he has finally accepted that he can let go of these horrors and just be him.
"As a person who has horses in for training that have had some issues, it has been so helpful to have Cat to help when I hit a blank with a particular horse. No matter what we did the get the horse to relax with training she couldn’t. She had all the vet checks, X-rays and scans to check everything was ok. She had so much tension in her withers. She was an ex racer.
Cat came in to do an attunement session and my goodness I couldn’t believe the change. She yawned so many times, Cat picked up on the withers and helped this mare to release the tension and trauma she was holding. I wouldn’t have a believed it if I hadn’t seen for myself! Not only did the mare relax and become more in tune with me, she also stopped all the reacting around the wither.
Cat also helped show us how to help the mare ourselves during our training sessions and the changes really helped me with the training. I think Cat's attunement sessions really help with the relationship between horses and humans. It allows the horses to feel heard when they are holding onto old traumas. Give Cat a try would be my advice!"

"I've also grown noticeably to those around me,
who tell me I seem much more sure in myself, and calmer overall. I was dealing with a lot of fear and anxiety around horses at the beginning of the year, which was spilling over from my everyday life. Getting to understand my nervous system and learning how to become friends with it has been such a powerful tool that I can take with me wherever I am."
