Location: Georgia | Does anyone know of any good youtube or free online videos that teach the basics of equine massage? Would like to pick up some tips to use on my personal horses when I cant get a bodywork specialist out. |

| Massage is too detailed to get "basic" videos. I'm a CESMT.
Your best bet is to just rub your horse down, all over, with light to medium strokes following the hair pattern with your hands flat. They'll love it. |

I second this.
The DVD is nice becsuse you have some ability to pick which area of the body you want to “watch”. I keep it in the horse trailer and watch a section or 2 while I’m eating breakfast or dinner to review.
It’s helped my horse quite a bit who seems to get sore while traveling. |
