My name is Lisa Dutton and I've always seemed to know when something was hurting with a horse. This was especially true with horses that I have cared for. For that reason, I knew that I wanted to help alleviate horse's pain in some way. I wanted to truly understand horses.

​

     I have gained my experience in the equine industry with racehorses in training, along with dabbling in other disciplines. My gut spoke to me while working with horses and that feeling led to me massage therapy for the equine athlete. I completed my training with Beverly Brady and her school, Midwest Natural Healing for Animals. I am certified through her Equine Massage and Rehabilitation Strategies course.

​

    Through the education I received, I am finally able to understand what I have been seeing and feeling all these years and … how to fix it. My education included months of instruction to learn anatomy, biomechanics - on the ground and under saddle, basic saddle fit, eyeballing, causes of pain, hoof/dental info, common ailments, skeletal evaluation, gait analysis, rehab groundwork, and under saddle therapy. The key to recovery is to find the cause and bring a solution that will heal it.
