 best so far September 21, 2007
2 out of 2 found this review helpful
i am an equine shiatsu practitioner & i am keen to explore other hands-on techniques. i have read a few horse massge books but this is the only one so far that has given quite clear descriptions of massage techniques, & would enable even someone new to this kind of therapy to feel confident to have a go! it's the sort of book you can take into the stable with you & try out different techniques on your horse. it's also written in plain english! although my only concern is with the stretching section. some of the stretches take the animals limbs beyond their normal range of motion & you can clearly see the horses discomfort in the pictures (compared to their reaction during other techniques). i would be slightly concerned at the lay-person trying out some of these stretches on their own horses & wondering why they showed resentment!

This book is a very in depth and detailed guide, which would be useful for anyone wanting to try massage with their horses. It is great value for money and covers every aspect of massage you could ever imagine!

The book is well presented with clear diagrams and plates, which enhance the descriptive text. As a practical guide the book is excellent. The physiological section of the book is very simplistic and the book would be improved for the lay reader if references were given to further reading on equine physiology.
Perceptive, Useful Addition to any Equine Book Collection January 6, 2000

Detailed, and well researched, including a chapter on Hydrotherapy (not commonly included in books on the topic). The clear photographic guide aids in the understanding of the numerous and varied techniques, many of which reap valuable rewards.
