Equine Touch Bodywork
Equine Bodywork Sessions
In working with our equine friends, I use a form of bodywork known as "Equine Touch." As a registered practitioner with many years of experience, I am dedicated to providing this specialized therapy. The practice, described by the society as "a gift to your horse," involves gentle, non-invasive moves that target the fascia, meridians, and connective tissues.
Equine Touch offers holistic benefits, addressing various aspects of your horse’s well-being. Rather than applying a rigid method, we are trained to "listen to the horse," allowing their feedback to guide the session and work at a deeper level. This approach fosters a profound healing experience and strengthens the bond between you and your horse.
My own experience of the practice was formed, when helping out at the Mane Chance Animal Sanctuary. One of the lovely grooms there, was using the method known as Equine Touch © (which she had been taught whilst at University in New Zealand) to help orchestrate a level of healing to one of the ponies in the herd. The practice seemed to bring about such a deep sense of relax to the equine that was otherwise in pain. This resonated with me in such a profound way, as I had been studying the effects of vibrational healing for many years.
I was delighted to see the effects of the process and how easily the horse seemed to relax and allow itself to submerge into the process. It was an awe inspiring experience, that spoke to me as it seemed to allow for a deep energetic connection between the pony and the groom. Fast forward to around 150 case studies and years of comprehensive study on the equine body, I am proud to say that I am a fully qualified practitioner working in and around Surrey, London and the Home counties.

Equine Touch
Equine Touch works on multiple levels by addressing the fascia and myofascial chains, which are essential communication systems within the body. Developed over 25 years ago by Jock Ruddock, a Bowen practitioner, and his wife, an accomplished equine vet, this method is widely practiced and appreciated around the world.
The practice involves a series of moves designed to target the fascia, meridians, and connective tissues. This multi-dimensional approach helps address physical, physiological, emotional, and behavioural issues. Sessions are typically booked in sets of three and can be conducted on a one-to-one basis at your own venue or yard.
As with most of the sessions I will find out more about your equine so that we can take into account their personal issues or areas of concern. I will then visit them on site to introduce them to the modality, which is always offered as a non invasive method, to begin their healing journey.
Equine Touch Bodywork
Equine Touch is a gentle, non-invasive bodywork system that supports the horse as a whole — physically, emotionally, and energetically. Using soft, vibrational movements over muscles, tendons, ligaments, and fascia, Equine Touch invites the body to soften, release tension, and return to balance in its own time.
Developed by Jock and his veterinary wife Ivana, this subtle yet powerful approach works with the horse’s natural healing intelligence. The gentle “moves” create a vibration that travels through the connective tissues, encouraging deep relaxation, easing discomfort, and supporting circulation and lymphatic flow.
Rather than focusing on diagnosis or symptoms, Equine Touch listens to the body’s overall state. By helping release held tension and muscular restriction, it can gently improve mobility, support rehabilitation, enhance performance, and bring a greater sense of ease and wellbeing to the horse.
Equine Touch works alongside, not in place of, veterinary care. It is always recommended that your vet is informed before sessions begin, ensuring your horse is supported safely and holistically.
