EQUINE MASSAGE WORKSHOP:

THREE OR FIVE DAY

This workshop is a great tool for the trainer

 because many times problem horses are simply sore horses.

Instructor: Beverly Brady, Certified Equine Massage

Therapist, Healing Touch Practitioner, and apprentice of Dr. Mark Haverkos

The workshops are $100* per day.  I recommend the five day workshop for those with little horse knowledge as the first day includes how to safely approach and work around horses.  Nationally known equine chiropractor Mark Haverkos, DVM will be invited to speak at all workshops.  I have worked with him extensively and he has offered to be present when he is available. You will be given a ‘Certificate of Completion’ when you are done.
