"I have honestly noticed a big difference in my competition horses after Katja's work. The combination of Acupressure and the cold laser make a huge difference and help relieve sore and tight muscles. Recently, Katja worked on a 4 year old horse for me who was literally unable to trot after running into the stall frame between his stall and the run. Katja worked on his shoulder area where he has hit the stall and 2 days later he was 75% better. Everyone at the barn, including myself, was pretty amazed as we were all ready to sent him to the vet and have a bone scan done. 

 

I have also found that the Acupressure and cold laser are equally useful and important in less extreme and more chronic cases. Many of my training horses are on a routine schedule to check in with their muscles and body. It is so important to be in tune with them so that we can prevent a problem before it happens! When Katja notices a spasm in the back muscle for example, it gives me a "heads up" and a chance to consider the training in the past week that might have caused that and how I might want to modify the training in the future week and not cause a more extensive injury to the horse. 

 

I would highly recommend the Equine Wellness Group not only for horses with extreme issues or injury but also for the healthy equine athlete that we hope to keep sound and happy for many years to come!”

“Katja came out to look at my mare's back and after an evaluation, she found that she was sore underneath the panels due to an ill fitting saddle. She identified the problem very quickly and was able to refer me to an excellent master saddler. I can highly recommend her skilled service. Katja is a dressage rider herself and has a wealth of knowledge.”

“Katja came out to ThreeNail Ranch and gave us a Wonderful 4H saddle fitting and massage clinic! I knew I was missing a lot with my horses, Katja made it fun and easy to remember how to check saddle fit and now I know my horses will be happier while working. I have always wanted to massage my horses but I was envisioning standing there for hours rubbing them...Katja showed us how to effectively massage and that a little goes a long way and too much massage can make them sore as well. Her glowing personality really made the experience memorable and I really look forward to learning as much as I can from her!”
