🐴 Horse Riders – This Might Sound Familiar…

Tight hips, lower back discomfort, or unevenness in the saddle?

A lot of this comes from tension in your own body—which your horse then feels.

Massage can help improve:
• Balance
• Flexibility
• Comfort when riding

I work with riders locally near Chichester alongside my equine work.

Feel free to message if you want to chat about it 😊

⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️ Client Review ⭐️ ⭐️ ⭐️

This morning I had the pleasure of meeting a new client—an ex-racehorse who initially presented with some anxiety, biomechanical issues, and a warning that he might bite!

It was clear he was experiencing some discomfort, but with patience and trust, he soon began to relax and engage with the treatment. By the end of the session, he was able to benefit fully from his sports massage, helping to support his rehabilitation and overall wellbeing.

He was an absolute pleasure to work with, and I’m very grateful to his owner for trusting me to be part of his rehabilitation journey.

‘’Thank you Sarah you have completely relaxed his nervous system x’’

Every horse has a story, and it’s a privilege to help them feel and move better.

🐎 Client Visit

I treated this mare who holds tension through her poll, predominantly on her right side.

After working the soft tissue she was able to relax and release.

If your horse is holding tension somewhere it may be worth exploring the benefits of sports massage.

🐴 Your Body Affects Your Horse More Than You Think…

One thing I see a lot—tightness in riders transferring straight into their horses.

If your hips, back or shoulders are restricted, your horse often compensates… which can lead to tension, stiffness or behavioural changes.

That’s why I also offer massage treatments for riders locally near Chichester—helping both horse and rider move more freely.

It’s amazing how much of a difference it can make to the partnership 🐴

Mobile service available.

🐎 5 Signs Your Horse Might Benefit from Massage

Sometimes the signs are subtle…

• Becoming resistant or “nappy”
• Struggling on one rein more than the other
• Difficulty bending or softening
• Changes in behaviour (bucking, tail swishing, tension)
• Feeling stiff or uneven

Sports Massage isn’t just for competition horses—it can make a real difference to happy hackers and retired horses too.

If you’ve noticed any of these, feel free to drop me a message—happy to advise with no pressure.
