The Masterson Method
What Is The Masterson Method®?
Developed in 2005, The Masterson Method® is a unique, interactive method of equine bodywork where you use the responses of the horse to your touch to find and release accumulated tension in key junctions of the body that most affect performance.
- It uses the nervous system to relieve tension.
- It is appropriate for any horse regardless of level or competition...or not.
- The Masterson Method® works WITH the horse to gain trust (not ON the horse).
- The Masterson Method® identifies body language that shows:
-
- where the horse is holding tension
- when the tension is released
- when a performance-limiting issue might be developing

How does it work?
The Masterson Method® uniquely improves the horse's comfort and performance by addressing the:
- Autonomic nervous system
- Muscles
- Joints
- Energetic elements
- Fascia
Tension is released in deep core and postural muscles, allowing the horse's spine to realign naturally.
When deep tension is released and the muscles controlling major joints of the body can fully relax and contract:
- range of motion is restored in the major joints
- increased range of motion improves length and evenness of stride, lateral reach and overall gymnastic ability
- suppleness and strength needed for proper impulsion, collection, bend and the core ability to lift through the withers and back are enhanced
Transform your horses' well-being
By engaging the parasympathetic nervous system, The Masterson Method® assists your horse in releasing deep-seated tension, enhancing movement, comfort and performance.
Experience the transformative power of The Masterson Method®, a unique approach to equine wellness.
