Testimonials
Melissa has a very calming and gentle way about her which Ivy really responded to. Melissa identifies areas where there are muscle knots that need to be worked through and any other issues she comes across during Ivy’s treatment. Ivy is always very relaxed during and following Melissa’s massage treatments. I would recommend Melissa to anyone who wants someone to work patiently and gently with their horse
Pat Johnson
I have a 17.1hh Dressage horse who will be going 4th Level dressage this year. After seeing and hearing many great reviews about Melissa, I contacted her. I was thrilled-she listened to my concerns, asked questions about Lego’s background, work and history. The minute she walked up and ran her hand down his neck he was at ease. She found strength and weaknesses with him and she also gave us some homework to do. The next day, he was absolutely wonderful to work – in fact I messaged her to let her know how good he felt and it has continued. I am looking forward to our next visit and I would highly recommend her as not only as a massage therapist but a horsewoman as well.
