"[Petri] was AWESOME [at the show in Raleigh]! Thank you, thank you, thank you! We are the top six-year-old in the country and are on our way to Germany in August to represent the US at the World Young Horse Breeding Championships! So big thanks to you for working your magic!"

“Last year, Cinder delivered a foal via breech presentation. Due to the trauma of the delivery, Cinder suffered a fractured pelvis. Her hips were crooked and she had noticeable weakness and muscle atrophy in her hips. However, Cinder is making progress thanks to Courtney and proper veterinary care. Cinder is now on a monthly massage program, and the progress has been amazing. With Courtney’s help, we hope one day Cinder will ride. Thank you Courtney, she would never have come this far without you!”

"When I noticed some stiffness in my dressage mare, I brought Courtney out to massage her. After the massage, my trainer and I noticed immediate results. Dutchess was much more supple during our next lesson and the benefits continued during subsequent rides."
Terri Minford, M.D. & Double Dutch


"The day after the massage, my daughter had a lesson with her instructor. Before the trainer knew that Abe had a massage, she commented that this was not the same horse. When I told her that he had a massage, she said he should get one more often!"

Mary McCullough & Honest Abe


"Val is AWESOME; I took her to a few of Howard County Hunt's trail rides and she was SUPER, very relaxed, jumped the logs, no problem and was a blast to ride. Thanks for fixing her, she is turning out to have a ton of potential!"

Melinda Moss & Valley Girl


“[After Jazz’s massage,] the biggest difference was his trot! In the past it's been pretty choppy - sometimes he would warm out of it, but not much. Well, when I asked for the trot he started his usual tight and stiff stride then after a few steps everything relaxed! He dropped his head, relaxed his shoulders and loosened his back and hind end. It was amazing! He hasn't felt like that in a good year!”
Danna Krakau & Jazzman


"The vet came out and I jogged Layla for him and he was SHOCKED at how much progress she’s made at the trot. You’ve done a really good job, thank you so much for helping me and Layla. Just wanted to call you to say we really appreciate you and that we’re actually doing something!"

“Mr. Bug moves more freely and is also now more willing to work on bending. You are very easy to work with, and the muscle diagrams are very helpful. Thanks!”
Kristine Kehoe & Happy Hour


“[Katie] is relaxed and more flexible. I am very happy with your work. I will not hesitate to recommend you.”
Anne Neal & Fairy Dust


“[After the massage,] I noticed immediate results. Boo’s head and neck have been longer and more elastic. His stride has also gotten longer, and it is easier for him to extend now. You were very knowledgeable, and you could answer all my questions professionally.”
Lindsey Janowich & Peek a Boo


“Maxine is much more flexible in the neck and hind quarters. The maintenance and performance benefits far outweigh the cost. Thanks so much!”
Wendy Evans & Maxine


“Thank you for helping with Amir. He is no longer as sensitive to grooming and physical contact. He seems to be more flexible and his muscle tone is improving. I have been doing the circles on his neck and it really seems to be helping him.”
Gillian Mullen & JFA Amir Mortal
Jubilee Farm Arabians


"Courtney knows her trade. She picked up on Rocky's problem immediately and worked with him until the problem was solved. Rocky moves much better when asked to turn. Prior to the massages, you could see he was uncomfortable turning. Courtney explained in detail what I could do to massage certain areas to help Rocky. I will definitely have her back for maintenance massages."
Gloria Finglass & Rocky


“Andrew seems more free and loose in his shoulders. You explained the possible why's of soreness and stretches and strokes to [incorporate], and I think every horse and owner can benefit!”
Sara Kovarovics & Andrew


“Bunnie had lost trust in human beings, [but since his massage] he is more approachable in different situations and less afraid of hands around him.”
