Integrated Bodywork

Integrated bodywork is a hands-on, whole-body approach that supports comfort, movement, and nervous system balance.

My work blends multiple techniques into a single, cohesive session — chosen intentionally based on what the animal’s body communicates in the moment. Modalities are not offered as separate services, but woven together to meet each individual animal where they are.

Integrated bodywork may include:

• Myofascial and manual bodywork

• Craniosacral techniques

• Kinesiology taping

• Reiki and subtle energetic support

• Nervous system regulation

Each session is adaptive and animal-led. There is no preset routine and no force-based work.

How Integrated Bodywork Supports Animals

Integrated bodywork may help support:

• Ease of movement and posture

• Compensation patterns and chronic tension

• Recovery from training, injury, or stress

• Emotional and nervous system regulation

• Overall comfort, balance, and resilience

Whether your animal is a high-drive athlete, a senior, or a relaxed companion, the goal is the same — supporting the body in returning to balance.

What Makes This Work Different

This work is guided by observation, touch, and response.

Some animals need physical release.

Some need nervous system support.

Many need both — at their own pace.

The animal’s feedback always guides the session.

Supportive Modalities

Laser Therapy

Laser therapy is a non-invasive modality used to support tissue healing, comfort, and inflammation reduction.

Targeted light energy is applied to specific areas of the body to support cellular activity and circulation, helping the body respond more efficiently to stress, injury, or chronic discomfort.

Laser therapy may be used to support:

• Muscle and joint soreness

• Tendon and ligament support

• Injury or post-surgical recovery

• Ongoing comfort and mobility

Treatments are gentle, painless, and well tolerated, and are integrated when appropriate based on the animal’s needs.

PEMF Therapy

PEMF (Pulsed Electromagnetic Field) therapy is a non-invasive modality that supports circulation, cellular communication, and overall tissue health.

Gentle electromagnetic pulses are applied to targeted areas to help the body regulate inflammation, ease tension, and support recovery in muscles, joints, and connective tissue.

PEMF may be used to support:

• Post-exercise recovery and soreness

• Injury rehabilitation

• Chronic stiffness or discomfort

• General maintenance and relaxation

PEMF is often integrated into sessions as a supportive tool, based on how the animal responds.

Nutrition & Herbal Support

Nutrition plays a foundational role in how the body moves, heals, and regulates.

I offer holistic nutrition and herbal support for horses and dogs, focusing on whole-body balance rather than quick fixes. Support is individualized and may be offered on its own or alongside bodywork sessions.

Nutrition and herbal support may include:

• Custom herbal blends

• Digestive and metabolic support

• Skin, coat, and immune support

• Inflammation and recovery support

• Seasonal and maintenance support

All recommendations are made with the animal’s current diet, lifestyle, workload, and sensitivities in mind.

Nutritional support is intended to complement — not replace — veterinary care.

Session Expectations & Approach

Listen. Touch. Restore.

Every session begins with listening.

I observe posture, movement, breath, behavior, and subtle response before ever asking the body to change.

Touch is intentional and adaptive, guided by the animal’s feedback and nervous system — never forced.

When safety and ease are present, restoration follows naturally.

Animals are always free to move, rest, or communicate boundaries throughout the session.

After the Session

Responses vary by individual.

You may notice:

• Deeper relaxation or rest

• Improved movement or posture

• Emotional release or softness

• Subtle changes unfolding over the following days

I may also share gentle observations or suggestions to support your animal between sessions.

Who This Work Is For

This work supports:

• Performance horses and dogs

• High-drive or sensitive animals

• Seniors and maintenance care

• Animals recovering from injury or stress

• Companion animals needing gentle, supportive care

When the body is heard, it knows how to restore.
