Equine Bodywork

---

Your first appointment includes a review of your horse’s history, routine, and owner observations, followed by an overall bodywork assessment and appropriate hands-on support.

Please allow approximately one hour. Initial appointments may take longer than follow-up visits because they include gathering background information and becoming familiar with your horse.

Follow-up appointments include a review of changes since the previous visit, updated observations, and hands-on bodywork tailored to your horse’s current needs.

We revisit previously documented areas and discuss any new concerns. Session length varies according to the horse and the information reviewed.

Add general tack-fit observations to your session for a closer look at your horse’s saddle, girth, and bridle setup. We discuss visible concerns and whether further assessment by an appropriately qualified tack or saddle-fitting professional may be useful.

This service provides general observations rather than a guarantee of correct fit.

Add ridden observations to provide further context about how your horse moves under saddle compared with in hand. You or your horse’s regular rider will ride at suitable gaits within the horse’s current abilities and any veterinary restrictions.

We discuss the observations made during the session. This service is not a veterinary lameness examination or diagnosis.

Kinesiology taping may be available as part of your appointment. Before the visit, we discuss the proposed application, your horse’s individual circumstances, and any preparation needed.

Pricing varies with the application and the amount of tape used.

Red-light applications may be available as an additional supportive service. We discuss your horse’s history, the proposed application, and whether this service is appropriate within their existing care plan.

Sessions generally range from approximately 5 to 20 minutes, depending on the application discussed.

Cold-laser acupoint applications may be available by prior arrangement. Please contact me before your appointment to discuss your horse’s history and the proposed service.

Sessions generally range from approximately 10 to 20 minutes, with details and pricing discussed before the service begins.

Rine’s Equines provides mobile bodywork services at clients’ own farms and facilities. To inquire about a visit, please include your location, the number of horses you would like seen, and the services you are interested in.

Availability, appointment details, and estimated travel fees will be discussed before scheduling. For visits involving multiple horses or clients at the same barn, please contact me to discuss how the travel charge will be allocated.

Travel fees are charged at the current government mileage rate for one-way travel to your location. The starting point may be my home or a previous client’s location, depending on my schedule that day. Your estimated travel fee will be discussed before your appointment is confirmed.
