30/70 theory to practice - Intensive 100% Essentials & Practicum

Intensive: To start and grow an equine massage practice you must be able to communicate with equine professionals, evaluate a horse and effectively treat him/her so that there’s no doubt in anyone’s mind that your work is effective (valuable). The therapeutic approach taught here is a blend of Shiatsu, Myofascial Release, Neuromuscular, Structural Reintegration and CranioSacral Massage modalities. In addition, Anatomy, Anatomy of Equine Movement, Pathophysiology of Pain, Hoof Anatomy & Care & Horse Quieting are also taught. EMTC is an intensive program of study to discover a greater level of awareness and communication between human and horse as the basis for therapeutic treatment. 

Essentials: Movement evaluation, functional anatomy and equine massage are taught hands-on in the field. You have the opportunity to select from and work with 50+ horses.
