I've moved this blog to a new platform, www.AllAboutEquineMassage.wordpress.com.
This will give me more flexibility in the future as the blog develops.

Rib technique and anatomy (first YouTube video!)

If you haven't already seen this video through the All About Animal Massage site or newsletter, here's a link to a video taken from an equine massage class I taught, which shows a technique for helping your horse's ribs, breath, and back (so therefore everything really :)) It also includes some discussion of the anatomy behind it, which is how I teach all the techniques and anatomy in The Horse Lover's Guide to Massage: What Your Horse Wants You to Know. That is, I like to teach them in chunks together, so they enhance each other through the connections.

2 for 1: Natural Horse Network and Radio Show

Here's another resource for you, which includes a full hour interview/conversation I had with the host, DC, about horse massage. You can listen to the recording anytime in their archives, my own as well as her other guests.
The Natural Horse Network itself is a combo radio show, store, social network and more for horse lovers with an emphasis on natural health and management topics.

Podcasts on Horse Tip Daily

Here's another resource for you...

Of course, I hope you'll especially listen to my own tips, but the Horse Tip Daily Radio Show offers a short tip each day from many experts on various horse topics, from massage (that's me!) and chiropractic (with Dr. Kari DeLeeuw), to other health care topics (dental, hoof and digestive), training and riding, natural horsemanship, photography, and more.

They really put on a good show at the Horse Radio Network, and it's fun to get the short tips frequently, and with such variety to keep us all on our toes for our horses' sakes!

Ready, set, go... Free Equine Anatomy Course!

OK, so I technically started this blog almost a year ago now, but then got a little distracted by the other events and tasks related to launching AllAboutAnimalMassage.com and publishing books and e-books on horse and dog massage. But 2010 is clearly the year to really get this blog rolling. Watch for tips, links, videos, podcasts and the latest e-books. I'll even let you horse folks know when the cat massage book will be ready, though don't tell your horses or dogs I said that :)
(And PLEASE don't tell your cats their book came third, chronologically at least!)

I'm happy to launch this new beginning with a resource I know many of you will positively drool over, a FREE On-Line Equine Anatomy course! (Free only during 2010, so don't wait!)
This is a very generous offering from Equinology to the horse world. So check it out, and I hope you enjoy it! (Actually, there is a $15 fee to cover administration costs, but in 2011 the cost will be $150, so still a steal of a deal for anyone interested in horse anatomy, equine massage, or equine massage training.)

Breathe

Breathe.
And exercise would be even better,
but at least breathe.
