LeSueur, MN 56058
See "Spot Light" page.  Barb & Diane have many years of combined equine experience, including reproduction, showing, games, and trail riding.  Barb also has 11 years of racetrack background, including layup rehabilitation and equine lameness work.  She has experienced firsthand that horses possess poor circulation in their lower extremities; and that massage increases blood circulation that allows more blood to flow to injured tissues to prevent more damage and to speed up the healing process.  Massage is a sensible, inexpensive and drug-free treatment.  Barb & Diane are available for clinics where they will teach the massage sequence for "tying up" and "colic"....this alone could save a horse's life!  When you call Barb or Diane...tell 'em Talk'n Horses Sent You!

Madison Lake, MN
See "Spot Light" Interview w/ Jan.  A registered nurse for more years than she’d like to count, Jan is also a John Lyons certified horse trainer http://www.johnlyons.com), is certified by Equissage (http://www.equissage.com) to do equine sports massage therapy, and a student of Reiki (vibrational energy healing).  Jan has been using these non-traditional forms of therapy on her equine patients and she says, “they just love it”.   If you add the alternative form of healing called Homeopathy—Energy Medicine Using Homeopathic Products—into her brand of unusual horse care, you have a unique blend of healing, understanding, sensitivity and trust which she communicates to her four-legged students or patients.
