You will find yourself reaching for Jean-Pierre’s Equine Massage – A Matter-of-fact Guide again and again due to the simple format, clear layout and concise explanations whether you have a patch horse or a show barn full. I have been administration a 60 plus farm for over 10 years that has a combination of young stock just starting, working show horses, and retirees, and this book is invaluable to the staff in maintenance the owner’s horses well and pleased. The boarders here are in similar situations and the copies are out and in use due to the ease of the spiral bound setup.

I bought this book to ‘help’ me in my studies to become an Equine Massage Therapist. Turns out, I was scammed by the school I enrolled in! They were using this book as thier own curriculum! I now use this book only and have learned more from it than I have any other sources!
