International Association of Animal Massage & Bodywork

Bodywork on horses called ESSE, Energetic Synthesis of Structural Embodiment. This dynamic and transformative work is designed to return balance to both the physical and energetic systems of the horse. This optimizes and expands the animal’s natural athletic ability and energetic enthusiasm exponentially. ESSE is rooted in the tools of Access Consciousness and Equine Rolfing methods. Whether a race horse, competitive show horse, or trail horse and riding companion, ESSE offers all horses the opportunity to have greater freedom, mobility, and ease in their lives. Horses gift to humans immeasurably. Now, we have the opportunity to give back to them to make their lives more joyful and comfortable, extending their careers and enhancing their performance. Every session is different, addressing the specific needs of that particular horse. It is the partnership and communication with the horse that makes ESSE so potent and truly honoring of these wonderful creatures.
