“Sarah was wonderful to work with. She was professional, kind, and so good with my mare. She has a natural connection with horses and a heart to help them. My farrier noticed a big improvement in my mare’s comfort level while having her hind feet trimmed. My mare started out pretty wiggly and impatient, but with Sarah’s quiet patience, she came to enjoy her treatments.” — Laura, Owner of 20-year-old mare

Hi, I’m Sarah! My mission is to help your senior horse stay active and trail-ready through advanced equine massage. My journey started during my years of volunteering at horse rescues, where I saw too many wonderful animals retired before their time. I know you want your horse’s golden years spent on the trail, free from the worry of the auction pipeline. I am here to give you and your horse a brighter future.

By specializing in senior trail horses, I offer targeted therapy that directly benefits your partnership. When you work with me, I help relieve your horse's chronic stiffness, improve their recovery time after rides, and maintain the mobility they need for steep or rugged terrain. I don't just massage muscles; I provide the specialized care required to protect your horse's wellness and extend your years together on the trail.

My path to becoming a Nationally Board Certified Animal Massage Practitioner started with liberty horsemanship, where I learned to build trust and communicate with horses halter-free. This deep connection led me to adopt my own horses and eventually pursue a career in their wellness. I completed my foundational training at the Northwest School of Animal Massage, followed by advanced studies in Senior Equine Massage at the Rocky Mountain School of Animal Acupressure and Massage. Today, I combine my lifelong love for horses with specialized knowledge in Senior Equine Massage to keep older horses moving comfortably.

Located just steps from the Pilchuck Tree Farm Equestrian Lot / Bracken Trailhead, I offer a space for your horse to receive specialized bodywork right here at my farm—ensuring they stay part of your family and your adventures for years to come.

  • Incorporate a massage into your trail ride with an Express Massage.

    Equine massage isn't just a luxury or a spa day—it is a wellness essential on par with regular farrier visits and veterinary care.

    For senior horses, it is a game-changer. As horses age, their muscles lose elasticity and their joints stiffen. Massage helps manage the aches of old age, improves circulation, and maintains the flexibility needed to stay active.

    If you want your horse to perform at their peak, stay comfortable in their own skin, and remain rideable well into their golden years, bodywork needs to be a core part of their maintenance routine. A horse that feels good moves better, lasts longer, and enjoys their work.

    Express massages are done on my farm, across the street from the Pilchuck Tree Farm Equestrian Parking Lot.

  • Mobile massage is a concierge service, provided by prior arrangement only.

  • Give your horse the consistent care they deserve with a monthly massage subscription. You will receive one massage every month, with priority booking that fits your schedule—including evenings and weekends. Plus, with automatic monthly payments you never have to worry about booking or remembering.

What to expect at my farm

Welcome to my dedicated equine massage space! Uniquely nestled across the street from the Pilchuck Tree Farm Equestrian Lot at the Bracken Trailhead, I offer a covered area outfitted with stall mats and cross ties, plus a handy hitching post for quick, relaxed arrivals — all thoughtfully arranged to keep your horse calm and grounded.

I put your horse’s comfort above all else and am happy to accommodate whatever position or bespoke setup makes them most at ease for their session, whether that means standing loose, being gently tied, or offering a little hay.

While your horse enjoys their session, I invite you to take a moment for yourself—grab a glass of iced tea and settle into one of our comfortable chairs to relax.

Just stroll down my driveway and let the magic begin. Your horse will thank you with every stride!
