Hey Susan,
I just rode my horse tonight and I didn’t see
that you had massaged him, but I totally knew that you did because he
felt so awesome. I had just noticed that the last few rides he just
didn’t have that elasticity and spring in his back that he normally does
and I just figured that he was tired or whatever. Sure enough, after my
ride I saw that you had worked on him and, OMG, he feels like a MILLION
DOLLARS! So kudos to you my friend - my horse is FANOMINAL!
Miller & Lisa
Hi Susan, Wait til you hear this!!!!
Castle was clocked during her workout this morning------------ she had
the 9th fastest workout out of 63 horses!!!
THANK YOU SO MUCH for giving her the comfort and flexibility to help her
work towards her potential! We're so glad that you are on her team!!
I am on Cloud Nine!!

Susan,
I
would just like to thank you again for taking such special care of my
Maddin. If I hadn't seen it with my own eyes I would never have
believed how vital, and necessary it is to my horses health, and
well-being. To see you work with him, and to see his response was truly
magical. To see him become more pain-free, and less agitated when
touched was even better!! Not to mention how much more relaxed, and
smooth he is when I ride him. I am absolutely thrilled that your
massage has contributed to Maddin's wellness, and his happiness. He is
a wonderful horse, and it makes me so happy to see him happy!!!

Susan -
I
just wanted to say thank you. My parents recently bought me a jumper
from Germany. When he came to us he had trouble bending to the right.
He also got very aggressive when you brushed him and put on his saddle.
I had Susan look at him just after we bought him and the result wasn’t
good. He was very angry at just the touch of Susan. We started to get
involved into the horse showing process and I didn’t get the chance to
start signing Aerobic (aka Nick) up for massages. Yesterday I had Susan
look at him again. I was worried that the reason he was angry about the
saddle was because he was back sore. Susan looked at him for me and
decided that most of Nick’s issues were that he was in fact sore but
also he got angry out of habit. I rode him shortly after his treatment
and he was like a new horse. He bent easily and stepped out more
freely. He was very happy throwing his head up in the air. He didn’t
mind being brushed and gave little protest to being saddled. I want to
thank Susan deeply for her work on Nick! She really knows what she’s
doing. She’s great with the horses and she really cares.
We
love her at Galway! She is so nice and joyful to everyone. Thank you so
much.
Nick
and Lauren & hopefully Tucker too!

Before you massaged Rain he was bracing his neck to one side, had
obvious pain and stiffness through his back and was uncharacteristically
bucking. Immediately following his first massage with Susan, Rain had a
longer more flowing stride, held his head and neck centered, and was more
than willing to do the work I asked him to do. After the second massage
Rain showed even more improvements. Thanks Susan!
Susan -
My horse has always been very girthy and she never had
full free movement. About 4 months ago I was getting on her and she
buckled under me. Ouch! That was really bad. After
recuperating, I gave you a call and you began working on Sangria. The
changes that occurred were amazing and immediate. She finally had freedom
of movement. All her strides opened up beautifully. She is no longer girthy - at all. Her muscles along her back seem to have changed and her
saddle is fitting her better. Thank you so much for making Sangria all
that she can be................... See you next month!
Susan,
I just want to thank you for evaluating and working on
the horse I was looking to purchase. I had some concerns - he wouldn't
stand still while grooming and he did this little bucking thing when
I mounted him. He just seemed uncomfortable. After his massage, he was
amazing! The bucking stopped, he wasn't squiggly when I brushed him, and
his movements were smooth and fluid. Thank you so much, and please keep
us on your schedule. We are very grateful!
PS. I don't have a name for him yet - I'll let you
know!
Susan -
I have to admit, I was a skeptic. Then I watched you
work. UNBELIEVABLE! Your intensity, my horses reaction, your
persistence, my horses reaction, your love and patience, MY HORSE'S
REACTION WAS UNBELIEVABLE! His muscles were no longer in spasm and his
eyes were soft. My ride was amazing! He was much easier to bend, his
head no longer tipped to the left, and his stride just opened up. His
jump was fabulous! He was a star!
Thanks Equitouch - Thanks Susan for showing me the way
to my horses best!
Susan,
Thank you soooo much for the wonderful work you did on Maverick! As you
have seen, anytime anyone would ride him, especially when cantering,
Maverick would buck and kick out pretty severely. He was getting to the
point where whenever we wanted to jump, we had to ask people to stop their
horses so he wouldn't kick anyone. After just one massage, that stopped, he
hasn't bucked once. I thought it was just my riding for a while, but after
the massage, and your comments about his muscles, I really realized he
really was sore! I am so glad that we decided to have you massage him, and
how wonderful he responded. I was on the verge of tears while riding him!
You did a great job, I have never seen Mav so relaxed as he was during the
session! Thank you sooo much!!!
Kathleen and Maverick!

EQUITOUCH TOUCHED MY HONEY-
I would like to take this opportunity to
thank Equitouch Massage and of course Susan for bringing Massage Therapy into
me and my Honey's life. I was dealing with my horse bucking, throwing her
head, not moving forward, and not paying attention to me. I've sent her to
training, I've paid people to ride her (thinking it was me), Then it happened
!!!!!!!! EQUITOUCH TOUCHED MY HONEY! (no pun intended). I am so pleased with
the results, my Honey doesn’t buck, throw her head around, she’s even moving
forward. She feels better therefore she listens better. I can't express
enough how I feel and I'm sure if Honey was writing this she would say " I
FEEL GOOD .. NA NA - - - - NA NA NA NA !
Thank you so much!

" After you gave my horse a massage, Jess
rode him and I could see that his left hind seems to be more supple and he
didn't have that “hitch in his get
along” like he did prior to your
treating him. His shoulders were extending nicely. Socks was more supple in
all his movements. He was softer when bending and more willing to extend at
all gaits!
Susan really cares about each of her clients needs, and her
compassion is genuine."
"Thank You!"

Hi Susan
Roxet's and Rosenburg's
progress is terrific!!!. I am very pleased (although not in the least
surprised) that Agata has noticed such a difference. By all means continue
massage with them in July and beyond. . In fact, I am quite happy to pay for
you to check them at least once a month from this point forward. I think you
offer a brilliant service!!! . (This is what horse people in England do
routinely).
I am ever so relieved to see both horses
recovering so well thanks to your care!
Best regards.

Susan,
I have never used massage therapy on my horse and I am so happy I decided
to try it. Your massage has made such a noticeable difference on my horse (Poco),
more so than any other treatments I have used in the past. I am a firm
believer now and will certainly be a regular client.
Thank you!
Susan:
I just wanted to thank you so much for everything you have done for
Chandler. We have been working with him for so long on trying to losen his
left side so he isn't so stiff all the time. Nothing worked untill you
started working with him. I cant even believe the entire change in him
when I ride. He is so much more relaxed and he finally bends just as nice to
the left as he did to the right. As you know he had lots of tension building
on his back and hind end and you have helped correct that as well. Thanks to
you he is feeling great and I am having so much fun riding him this summmer.
Thank you for all you have done, Chandler absolutely loves you. You truly
have a gift for helping horses, I cant thank you enough for what you have
done for Chandler.
You should call what you
do something different than "massage". It's much more than that -- maybe
Susan's Miracle Treatments????
Thank you!!

Susan,
I wanted to share with you the joy your services have given me and my 3
horses. Two of my horses were so sore that it took 3 massages to work out
their soreness. My oldest horse who's 10 wasn't such a pleasure for you to
work on. However, you persisted, slowly and gently at first until he trusted
you enough to apply full pressure. Now, all my horse's are great! I can't
believe the difference in all of them. You have changed their lives and
touched mine. We ALL want to thank you for your genuine concern and love for
animals. We'll see you in 3 weeks!
Susan,
My heart is full tonight as I write this note to you. I
cannot thank you enough for the work and dedication you have given my
horse. Since you have been massaging Vince on the regular basis he has been
wonderful. His lead changes are a dream, his gates flowing and his ability
to bend is remarkable. Vince has not been lame, stiff, or even girthy. You
are a miracle worker!
See you in 3 Weeks!
My adorable paint horse
Pepé was a super star in the show ring until he got sick and refused to jump
anything - ever. After months of trying to get him
back on track and failing, I had Susan take a look at him. He was unbelievably
sore everywhere - even light pressure on his back produced such a severe
reaction I thought he might collapse. Now, after a series of four massages he
is feeling much better and he's even starting to jump again! Pepé and I are
extremely grateful for Equitouch!
We’ll see you soon,
Linda & Pepe

As a repeat customer, Susan has helped my horse
Brighton with sore spots in
the neck and hips. It is incredible to watch the reaction my horse has whenSusan works on him. It is instant relief! Brighton LOVES the massages. I
would highly recommend Susan's services to any horse owner. She plays a key
role in my horse's overall comfort and health. I am a truly satisfied
customer. Plus, Susan's dedication to the horses is amazing. Thanks again.

Susan,
It was totally amazing to watch you work with Tyler. It was incredible how
you were able to identify the areas where he was sore, get him to trust you,
and work through the pain.
Before you worked on him, it was like riding on a big, hard board of wood!
Afterward, he was much more flexible. He had been tripping a lot. Just a few
days after the first massage, he did not trip at all. I think he is a much
happier horse now, thanks to you.
We're both looking forward to Tyler's next massage!

Susan,
Ruby's has made great progress since you started
working with her. I remember that first massage when she was sore all over and
not happy about it! Each time you massage her, there are less problem areas
and she has learned to relax and enjoy her time with you. In turn she is less
stiff and more relaxed when we ride together -- that has made it a more
enjoyable experience for both of us!
Ruby and I both thank you, Kathleen

Sue,
Sorry it has taken me so long to write to tell you about
how great Ace is doing now that he has his regular massages.
In just one visit, his girthiness is gone! I can touch him
ANYWHERE without a displeased response. He seems to really enjoy being
touched now too. I think he moves noticeably easier after he is massaged and
bends easier as well. Lets continue to do him monthly and keep him in tip top
shape. Thanks again!

Susan - I just wanted to let you know how much I appreciated your work with
Ozzie on Saturday. I know that he got a lot out of it...He was feeling very
full of himself on Sunday when I took a lesson on him!
I would like to set up another appointment for next month.
Thanks again!

I have to tell you what I have seen.... Susan, I have seen such a difference
in my friends horse since you have been massaging him. He picks up his feet
much better now. His energy level is way up. And I noticed he's not laying
down as much as he used to. In fact, his elbows are no longer scuffed from
laying down so much. He looks great! I'm glad you care so much - it shows!
Thank you so much for helping me with my horse on such short notice. My
daughter was having a lesson and her horse would not turn right – I mean at
all… I actually could see the muscle sticking out of his neck and it was hard
to the touch. After you massaged him the lump was gone and he was his old self
again. He was able to turn both ways and touch his stomach again. Thanks again
!

Susan,
My horse has been stiff generally all over. But recently I noticed his
hind end not moving very well. I couldn't even ride him. I called the Vet
out and he took a look, said there were bruses and yes he was very stiff. We
took an X-Ray and found nothing fractured or broken. The Vet said that it
looked like he fell when he was in turn out. I gave you call to massage my
horse. Lincoln's reaction to the massage and how he leaned into your touch
was so unbelieveable... After his massage you waited for me to hand walk him
and he was no longer stiff. I tacked up and road him right then in front of
you. He was no longer stiff at all ! I scheduled another
massage for him next month. I am amazed. Thank you for your concern and most
of all your loving touch. It's all about maintenance.
Susan,
My horse is 17 yrs old and always works very hard for who ever rides him.
He'll jump anything and make it work no matter what the rider sees. I asked
you to give him a massage and what a difference you have made. I can clearly
see that Justin is more comfortable. He even stretches which I have never
seen him do. He has more energy and his range of motion is better. Thank you
for working on my horse. We both appreciate it.
Thank you so much for working on my daughter's pony, Lucky
Charm, the very same day that I called you. Lucky is usually a very sweet
natured pony, and for two days in a row he was pinning his ears back as soon as
I would
approach him with his saddle. Before this, Lucky never pinned his ears back,
even when I tightened his girth. I knew something was wrong, and you found
some very sore areas around his withers and back. The next day, Lucky was
just fine!
I really appreciate your same-day responsiveness, along with your extra
efforts to test the saddle on his back after your message session. Your care
and concern for horses shines through!
Kathy & Nicki.

Susan,
I couldn’t believe my eyes… I was so worried - I took my 4
year old out 2 days before a horseshow tacked him up and walked into the arena.
Low and behold something was very wrong with his neck and he was lame. I was so
upset and didn’t know what to do. I walked over to talk to you and see if you
could massage him. I’m so glad you did ! He so enjoyed the massage and when I
went to give him a ride the next day he was as good as new. I couldn’t believe
my eyes. Brighton went to the horseshow as scheduled and was perfect. Thank you
so much.

Susan,
I just wanted to thank you
so much for the relief you gave my horse Storm. He was coming up lame for just
about one week when I asked you to massage him. The next day he was fine!
Unbelievable!!! He has been sound ever since. Thanks from the bottom of our
hearts. We will see you in 2 weeks!

Equitouch,
Thanks for the massage.
Gidget has worked so hard all season for me so I decided to give her a treat and
have you massage her. Seeing her face while you massaged her was amazing… She
feels so good now. Thank you.

Susan,
Thank you for taking the
time to talk with me on Sunday and evaluate my 6 year old. I would have never
known he was back sore until I saw it with my own eyes. I also appreciate you
massaging him at the last minute. I’m glad you had the time! I know one thing
I will be calling you again in a couple of weeks. Thank you.
