"Amanda gave my horse Luna a combined Healing and Massage session in July 2018. Luna was very nervous with trust issues when I got her, also headshy and didn't like her feet being picked up. She was far more tolerant than I thought she would be, 'softening' to what was happening as she gradually became more at ease. Amanda was the first person who Luna allowed to work on her with that degree of closeness as, in the past, she has reacted considerably to anyone who has not taken the necessary time she needs.
After Amanda finished her treatment, Luna rested her head in my arms as if to say 'thank you'. This is very unusual as Luna is very nervous of people round her head area."

"I own an ex racehorse called First who I have had now for 11 years. She is a very willing and calm horse usually although, as a thoroughbred, she can also be very reactive should something upset her. Having previously used a similar treatment for her and a previous horse, I got in touch with Amanda to try and help us, as we had been through a huge change of yard and move 200 miles, plus the stress of me losing my father just after the move. First was clearly picking up on my emotional state and finding it very hard to settle into her new home.
My concerns, primarily, were to help First to settle. She would also rush to come in from the field, sometimes rearing and becoming very explosive and somewhat dangerous, and other times she would be very calm and quiet. I was not able to work out the trigger of this behaviour. It was possible that there were other influences and issues that were bothering her and I needed to find the best way to help her through it. I had every faith in Amanda's work and that it could only be of benefit to both of us.
Amanda works in a very calm and quiet way and really listens and watches how the horse reacts to her. I spent the time watching First and how she was responding to Amanda, being very calm with a soft eye and moving her body to indicate which area she needed Amanda to work on. I found Amanda spot on with the communication side of the session, filling in the missing links to enable me to carry on with our own journey and relationship. After 2 days, First was very calm coming in from the field and totally different in her demeanour as well. I felt First would benefit from a further session and I would say that the second session instilled the first.
I think animals would be in a better place if more owners would be open minded enough to turn to this type of treatment - as I am sure it is what animals would choose themselves - in order to help them through and cope with the pressures we put them under in order to have them as pets."
