As we head into a new season, many of us are getting our horses back into work, preparing for competitions, or simply wanting them to feel their best after winter.

I’m excited to introduce a new 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐦𝐢𝐮𝐦 𝐁𝐨𝐝𝐲𝐰𝐨𝐫𝐤 𝐒𝐞𝐬𝐬𝐢𝐨𝐧, along with a couple of new treatment options!

Everything included in the Equine Bodywork Session, plus:

By combining my hands-on bodywork with targeted Red & Near Infrared Therapy, I can provide an extra level of support for recovery, tissue care and overall wellbeing.

❄️ “My horse isn’t doing much over winter…”

I hear this a lot.

But take a look at this paddock… 👀🐴

Those skid marks tell a different story.

Horses may not be competing, schooling, or in full work, but they’re still running, playing, bucking, spinning, slipping, skidding to a stop, and navigating wet, uneven ground.

Every one of those sudden turns and stops places strain through the body — shoulders, back, pelvis, SI region, and limbs.

Most horses are incredibly good at compensating, which means little niggles can quietly build up long before we notice a problem.

That’s why bodywork isn’t just for horses that are in hard work or actively showing signs of discomfort.

Regular treatments can help identify and release areas of tension before they become bigger issues, helping your horse stay comfortable, balanced, and moving freely through the winter months 🌿

Because even when they’re “just being horses,” they’re still using their bodies every single day 💛

🐴 Over 20 years of experience bringing balance back to the equine body through gentle, holistic therapies.

Who else’s paddocks are covered in winter zoomie skid marks? 😂🐴” 💛

🐴💜 A little reassurance for my wonderful clients…

You may have noticed I’ve been sharing some behind-the-scenes photos and updates about a few equine wellness products I’ve been developing.

While I’m incredibly excited about this new journey, I wanted to reassure everyone that Leanne’s Equine Therapy isn’t going anywhere!

My passion has always been helping horses feel and perform at their best through hands-on therapy, and that remains my primary focus.

I will continue to offer the same care, support and treatments that many of you have trusted me with over the years, including:

✨ CranioSacral Therapy
✨ Equine Touch
✨ Photonic Red Light Therapy

The products I’m developing are simply an extension of what I already do every day—supporting horses naturally and helping owners tackle some of the common challenges I see in practice.

Whether it’s through bodywork, rehabilitation support, or carefully developed wellness products, my goal remains exactly the same:

💜 Helping horses feel their best.

Thank you to everyone who has supported me on this journey so far. I truly appreciate every horse, every client, and every opportunity to make a difference.

🌿Natural Hoof Paste Trial Update 🐴

Batch 2 is officially underway!

After using all of my first test batch, I made two new versions today to compare. One follows the original recipe, while the second includes a small tweak that has already improved the texture and tackiness.

Product development is rarely a straight line, but it’s fascinating seeing how small changes can make a big difference.

One of the biggest challenges with a hoof product is creating something that not only supports healthy hooves, but can also stand up to a muddy New Zealand winter! 🌧️🐴

Next step:
➡️ Trial both batches on the ponies.
➡️ Compare how well they stay in cracks and the central sulcus.
➡️ Monitor hoof condition and retention.

I’ll keep sharing the results as we go!

Has anyone else been battling mud, thrush, seedy toe or central sulcus issues this winter? 👇

Something else I am playing with!

🐴 Hoof Paste Trial Update #1

Many of you saw my post yesterday about something new I’ve been working on behind the scenes.

Over the years, one of the frustrations I’ve had with hoof products is how quickly some of them disappear once a horse heads back out into wet paddocks.

So I’ve been trialling the first prototype of a new hoof paste designed to:

✔ Support thrushy frogs
✔ Support seedy toe and white line disease
✔ Stay in deep cracks and cavities
✔ Help create a barrier against wet, muddy conditions

The first test has been on one of my own horses, who has some fairly challenging hoof cracks and defects.

After a day in a very wet paddock, some of the surface paste had been pushed out of the larger openings (which wasn’t surprising).

What did surprise me was that when I cleaned the mud away, I found the paste was still present deep inside the cracks and tracts.

For the next stage of testing, I’ve packed the deeper cavities with cotton wool as well as the paste to see if that improves retention even further.

So far, it’s looking promising. 😊

I’ll keep sharing updates as the trial continues.

🐴 Something new is coming…

Over the last 20+ years working with horses, there are a few issues I see over and over again:

🔹 Thrush
🔹 Seedy toe
🔹 White line disease
🔹 Deep central sulcus cracks
🔹 Hooves constantly battling wet conditions

I’ve often wished there was a product that could not only support healthy hooves, but also stay where it was needed most.

So I’ve been busy developing something new.

The first test batches are underway, and I’m excited to see how they perform in real-world muddy winter conditions.

Watch this space… 👀
