Meet April Wilson
I am a passionate and dedicated Equine Bodywork Practitioner.
Growing up with animals of all kinds and developing a profound connection with horses at a young age, I have become a lifelong animal lover, horse enthusiast, owner, caretaker, and rider. I have dedicated 35 years as a certified veterinary technician to working with a variety of species including my favorite, the horse.
I have witnessed first-hand the impact that physical discomfort, tension, and stress can have on a horse's performance, behavior, health, and happiness. This motivated me to explore the art and science of equine bodywork.
Pursuing the call to help horses, I have undergone training and certification in equine massage and tension release techniques. My education includes coursework in equine anatomy, kinesiology, and physiology, allowing me to understand the intricate musculoskeletal and biomechanical systems of horses.
My approach is holistic and intuitive, taking into consideration the individual needs of each horse. I offer a range of specialized techniques that includes massage, myofascial line release, acupressure, nerve impingement release and BEMER (PEMF) therapy all used to address muscle tension, range of motion, soreness, and discomfort.
I believe that horses benefit from the same level of care and attention as any other athlete or family member. By providing them with regular bodywork sessions, we can promote relaxation, relieve tension, reduce pain/discomfort, improve range of motion, and promote recovery from injuries. Equine bodywork also aids in reducing stress and anxiety, allowing horses to perform at their best and enjoy an enhanced quality of life.
I am dedicated to improving the lives of horses by enhancing their physical and emotional well-being. I believe that a relaxed and balanced horse is a happy horse. Whether you have a competitive athlete, a beloved pleasure companion, retiree, or a rescue horse in need of care, I am here to provide bodywork services tailored to their unique requirements. Together, we can help your horse achieve victory through comfort, performance, and happiness!
