Diane and Muesli, a warmblood mare treated for temperament issues, lack of condition and stiff shoulders
“Kate’s profound empathy worked wonders. After a few treatments Muesli’s back and shoulders were much improved. Incredible transformation in her temperament ... far more receptive to being handled, a completely different mare: a joy to own.” [

Susie and Doughnut, an Irish gelding treated to help with cold back and to calm a nervous temperament
“He definitely improved after treatment: he is now calmer, happier, more relaxed, less anxious, less stressed, less nervous and less twitchy about being touched. I have seen Doughnut transformed by a Shiatsu session and I only wish you’d do me next! I’d happily recommend the benefits of Shiatsu for any horse, especially those in demanding work like hunters or competition horses, because I think it offers them comfort and relief from everyday muscular stresses and tensions that a rigorous grooming or a general massage never could. What more can I say? I am a convert because Doughnut is a convert!”
Donna and George, an Irish gelding treated for stiffness, lack of condition and to help recovery from azoturia
“George seemed more alive and looked very well, coat gleaming. I would definitely use Shiatsu to treat my horse both before and after competitions, and have already recommended Shiatsu as a treatment to other people. Very interesting therapy and Kate is obviously truly passionate about her profession, a passion which she brings to every treatment she gives! Thanks loads.” [

Tania and Red October, a competition horse with a history of aggressive behaviour
“Red has become a much more relaxed horse when being groomed, and his movement is more free when ridden. Shiatsu has brought much calmness to Red, and he is a pleasure to be around, having been a grumpy horse for so long.”
Alison and Spectra, a mare treated for aggressive behaviour and ‘moody mare’ syndrome
“It’s amazing the difference the treatments have made. My mare is now so much more supple, and a changed horse in the stable.She loves her treatments and the benefits are on-going.”
Susan and Classical Jazz, an Irish competition horse previously suffering from chronic stiffness and lack of condition
“His stiffness has improved immensely - it is so much easier for him to work. His treatment was very beneficial to his general well being, and generally he is a much happier horse.” [
