I rented it from the now defunct Horseflix.com but I notice that it is available from Giddyupflix.com. Well worth it! Love the video rental concept!--Sharon Hi Liz,

Kinni for your mare, you might want to look into Jim Masterson's method. It is SO gentle! No chance of 'goosing'. :-) It is a wonderful compliment to all we do as horse(wo)men.

Keep those video reviews coming! I've been doing a little remedial massage on Gabe lately. He's out of action while his feet adjust to being shoeless. It seems to really help calm him and has done great things for our relationship. My Mare, Shamar, won't sit still for massage. I may as well be goosing her. For her, I purchased an endostick from JP Giacomini. I haven't yet watched the DVD, so all I've done is tap for relaxation. It's worked really well. She sat still, chewed and yawned inside of five minutes. That’s super! Keep those video reviews coming!

Mon, 14 Sep 2009 19:50:57 +0000 http://www.horsemansarts.com/?p=407#comment-93 Sound interesting. I'll have to check it out. Massage for horses can be so wonderful. I worked on a guest ranch in CO several summers ago. Our horse were ridden anywhere from 3-6 hours a day and some of them would get quite tense. There was an equine massage school nearby and they would come every few weeks and work on our horses for free. The horses absolutely loved it! I've always been skeptical about doing my own massage because I've been afraid of doing more harm than good. So do you think the video gives enough advice for the novice massager to be successful? cheers, Mary H. http://stalecheerios.com/blog Sound interesting. I’ll have to check it out.
