Vitality in Motion™: Equine Massage Course – The Power of Touch

Your horse can’t tell you where it hurts—but their body does.

Vitality in Motion™ was created for thoughtful, devoted horse owners who want to go beyond routine care and truly understand what their horse is feeling, how they move, and how pain, tension, and imbalance affect performance, behavior, and quality of life.

This course introduces you to equine massage as a powerful, compassionate tool to support your horse’s comfort, longevity, and overall well-being—while strengthening the bond you share.

What You’ll Learn

This comprehensive yet approachable course guides you step-by-step through the essential foundations of equine bodywork:

✔ The Pain Cycle
Understand how discomfort leads to compensation, tension, restricted movement, and ultimately injury—and how massage can interrupt that cycle.

✔ Equine Anatomy, Conformation & Biomechanics
Learn how structure influences movement and why no two horses move—or feel—exactly the same.

✔ Observation & Gait Analysis
Develop the ability to see subtle changes in posture, stride, symmetry, and behavior that signal imbalance or discomfort.

✔ Assessing the Horse
Learn simple, practical ways to evaluate your horse’s body before and after work so you can make informed decisions.

✔ Equine Massage Techniques
Apply safe, effective massage techniques that reduce tension, improve circulation, support recovery, and promote relaxation and trust.

✔ Basic Stretching Techniques
Encourage healthier range of motion and suppleness without force or stress.

✔ Basic Stabilization & Strengthening Exercises
Support better movement patterns, postural strength, and injury prevention.
