About me

I've been around and loved horses for most of my life. At the age of 12 I was lucky enough to have my first pony, Ginger. He was a 4 year old Hackney cross Welsh section D and he taught me a lot of what I know, 14 years later he is still teaching me new things. I am also lucky enough to have a Welsh D, Malakai and a Shetland pony, Jubilee (aka JubJub) as well as dogs, chickens, ducks and rabbits.

In 2012 I started working on a private polo yard. Here is where I learnt not only about polo and polo ponies but it was also where I was introduced to the world of horse therapy and massage. The owner worked and still works tirelessly to keep her horses in peak physical condition; she introduced me to various forms of massage as well as chiropractors, osteopaths, trainers, saddle fitters, farriers and vets, this all fuelled my interest and enthusiasm for equine rehabilitation and therapies.

In 2016 I attended the Royal Agricultural University to study a Bachelor of Science, Honours, degree in Equine Science and Business. I elected to study alternative and complementary therapy's, behaviour and welfare and advances in equine training in more detail along side all my other modules. I also had the chance to make life long friends with people who have gone on to work in all areas of the equine industry.

Whilst at university I was fortunate enough to attend a whole horse dissection hosted by Sharron May-Davis, where I had the chance to put my knowledge from paper to each individual muscle of the horse and really understand how every muscle, bone and joint all work together.

After university I took up studies with Jo Rose Applied Therapies and Courses to obtain my Level 4 in Marishia massage. I now work for myself and I still aspire to learn as much as I can and further my knowledge so as to continue to provided the best care and service as possible to all my clients.
