The Person Behind
the Therapy

I have been around horses for almost 20 years, including more than 12 years working professionally in international showjumping yards. My job took me through Europe, the USA and Asia, working with horses at different levels and in very different programmes.

That experience shaped how I see recovery. Not as one product, one treatment or one checklist, but as a daily part of managing the horse in front of you.

A horse can look fine on paper and still feel different to the rider who knows it. I learned to notice subtle changes: a horse taking longer to loosen up, holding tension after travel, recovering differently after a show or simply not feeling like itself.

I also learned that good results come from a team: riders, grooms, trainers, vets, farriers and therapists. No single method should pretend to replace that.

Before I start, I listen to what you have noticed. Then I observe your horse during the session. The way it responds helps me decide where to focus, which loop to use and whether to adjust intensity. I often work full-body and then spend additional time on areas that deserve attention.

A reaction is information to consider, not a diagnosis. If something suggests that the horse needs a veterinary examination instead, I will say so.

Based in Belgium, I travel to horses and yards across Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany, with visits to Lithuania as well. From one horse at home to a whole competition yard, the aim stays the same: thoughtful care that fits real life.
