Equine Myotherapy

Enhance Your Horses Performance

Welcome to Shay Tactile Therapy

At Shay Tactile Therapy, we believe the horse’s body functions as one interconnected system. Tension, restriction and compensation patterns don’t happen in isolation; they develop over time through workload, stress and movement habits. Our approach focuses on treating the whole horse, not just the symptom.

We offer comprehensive Equine Myotherapy Treatments, Relaxation & Stretch Therapy, and Pre-Performance Massage sessions tailored to each individual horse. Whether supporting recovery, improving mobility, preparing for competition or maintaining overall wellness, every session is intentional, structured and horse-centred.

Through targeted myotherapy techniques, nervous system regulation and assisted stretching, we aim to restore muscular balance, improve circulation and support long-term soundness, both physically and mentally.

Because when the body feels safe, balanced and aligned, performance and comfort naturally follow.

Treatment aims to:

Stimulate circulation to enhance oxygen and nutrient supply
Promote lymphatic drainage, reducing fluid and metabolic waste buildup
Maintain tissue elasticity and mobility
Reduce protective muscle guarding
Support neuromuscular communication, preparing the body for correct movement patterns
