This week's is on Sharon DeRosa 👏
“I am a massage therapist for humans, and I thought it would be fun to learn how to massage animals. I love animals. This was a great class and experience. Mary and Sam are the best instructors anyone could have. They made the class very comfortable in learning and it was also a lot of fun having a great dog Sailor around. I would highly recommend Equissage over any other program out there.”
Thank you for the kind words, Sharon!
We are excited to have another great group at Equissage this week! 🐴

"I can't thank you guys enough for this program. I already have things lined up. Also, I massaged my gelding before the farrier came. He has always struggled with the way his leg had to bend. He would rear and get upset. I massaged him today and he didn't have any issues with the farrier at all-- it was amazing. Even the farrier said he was like a different horse."

Finally, after all these years: A success story
“Dear Mary,
I always wondered what I wanted to be when I grew up, and it took me to age 60 to find out. I went from college student, to professional baseball player, to U.S. Steel
management for 33 years and I still wondered. Finally I found Equissage, I found what I love to do, and it's massage. Shortly after certification, I developed my
brochures, cards and fliers and started distributing them. To date I have massaged over 35 different horses for a total of more than 100 massages due to call backs. Most are at pleasure barns and some at the race track. All horses have improved their performances. Most of the race horses have set their lifetime marks after massage. Business is growing and I love it. Thank you for everything, you have
changed my life.”

It really must be Valentines Day because Lord Dubai and Violet Circle seem to be getting along for once💕😂
Happy Valentines Day from Equissage!
