Daniela spent many years studying and learning about the many facets of equine physiology and biomechanics, understanding the horse as an athlete, and appreciating the partnership between horse and rider. She applies her lifelong interest in holistic health to horse behavior, movement, nutrition, and conditioning. In order to help her clients maintain optimum well-being and balance, Daniela has studied movement therapy, massage, acupressure, equine nutrition, massage, myofascial release, Reiki/Energy healing, and essential oil therapies.
Daniela became interested in the The Masterson Program™ as it complements her strong belief that a holistic, “big picture” point of view should be applied to wellness. She allows the horse to be a partner, creating trust and willingness. This in turn enables her to connect and address the performance of equine athletes with their general well-being, balance, conditioning, and strength.
A rider herself, Daniela experiences the benefits of bodywork therapies in her own horses. Maintaining and improving their health, establishing trust and most importantly, a deep connection, has been a driving factor in her continued pursuit of finding just the right combination of techniques.
Whatever the discipline or circumstance, from backyard ponies to elite athletes, Daniela is helping as many horses as possible have a pain free, happy life and allow them to excel as athletes.
