Testimonials & Results
" I highly recommend Emily Shealy's equine massage work.
My experience with her was during her clinical time, I cannot praise her work enough as it was equivalent to or exceeded many of the professional equine practitioners I have dealt with.
Emily has a caring nature and an innate talent for understanding the needs of the horse and how to help him become more comfortable.
By far, her professionalism and integrity rank her as one of the top professional individuals I have worked with in over 25 years.
During the time she worked with my Danish Warmblood gelding, he was rehabbing from several consecutive injuries. Emily took the time to understand his history and background in order to create a program specific for him. She also listened to his responses and incorporated his feedback in what she did and would modify as to what worked best for him.
As a horse owner, I appreciate a practitioner doing this. Additionally, I was given work I could do to supplement and help my horse between massages.
Emily went above and beyond in helping my horse regain his level of function. Emily's massage work helped my gelding return to his competitive level of movement. I believe her massage work was essential to his turn around."

"My horses receive weekly massage and benefit greatly from her expertise.
Lady, my Arabian in her twenties, improved everywhere from her gaits to her attitude. After the first session, there was a HUGE difference.
We jogged her before and after the massage, and the difference was astounding. With continued massage over about eight months, Lady’s flatwork improved drastically. Her soundness improved and she became stronger from using her muscles properly.
Wiley, a three-year-old draft cross, also benefited from massage. As a typical young horse, he struggled with balance. With continuous massage, he gained strength equally on each side and became a more balanced horse.
Emily is very knowledgeable and truly wants to see your horse improve! She spends the time and energy needed to get your horse where they need to be.
Not only is Emily incredible knowledgeable in massage, she has an extensive background in dressage. Emily understands the demands of a sporthorse and uses her knowledge to really improve each horse as an individual!"

"I started using Emily right after I bought my thoroughbred right off the track, who was very grouchy and hated being touched and worked on.
After just a few sessions, he has grown into a different horse!
He loves his sessions and his body is so much more relaxed, along with his temperament.
His movement is much more open and swingy.
He really has developed into a totally different horse from when I first got him, and I think a huge part of that was letting go of all the tension and sore spots he had from the track. I can't thank Emily enough for all of her help and patience with Finn, we both love her! Thank you Emily!!"
