Like so many equestrians MC once had a dream of being a jockey, then a jumper but the path in her life and experiences with some horses she met along the way directed her on a different "full time" journey with horses. Mary Catherine is professionally known as "MC" and she has dedicated herself  to helping horses with their musculoskeletal comfort. Nothing makes her happier than helping horses go from being tense, hollow, and or anxious to relaxed, round and moving fluidly.

​

​​​MC became interested in the equine musculoskeletal field twenty-six years ago after having many experiences including being an athlete herself  having taken part in quite a few century rides. On many "treks” MC cycled distances such as from Sacramento to San Francisco in six to seven hours.

 

The demands on her body taught MC about the need for musculoskeletal attention for a muscle system that is used as a vehicle. As an athlete, MC naturally understood this and fueled her passion to be an Equine Body Worker for equestrian athletes.

​

 Also being an experienced handler, highly intuitive and compassionate person especially for horses that are being used for work,  MC's sessions are aimed at making the horses have a positive experience feeling safe, comfortable and in strong yet understanding hands.
