The Masterson Method®

The Masterson Method® is a unique, interactive approach to equine bodywork that helps horses release tension in their core muscles, soft tissue, and key body junctions. By addressing built-up tension, this method can improve the overall well-being and performance of the horse.

This gentle, light-touch method is suitable for horses of all ages and can address a wide range of issues. Additionally, owners can learn simple homework techniques, such as the "Bladder Meridian," to support lasting changes and strengthen their bond with their horse.
