BOTH SIDES OF THE SADDLE
CREATING HARMONY FOR HORSE AND RIDER
My love for horses and passion for healing lead me to create a unique program that enhances the partnership between the horse and rider. I am Cindy Morrell, a licensed massage therapist and certified canine and equine massage therapist.
As the co-owner of a boarding, training and lesson facility, I watched people with their horses every day. At times, I would see the frustration of the trainer, the rider and /or the horse. Most often, it was because the horse’s movement wasn’t quite right, or the rider felt stiff; the communication felt “off”. I began massaging back sore horses who couldn’t move out easily or maybe hung a leg over a jump. I began massaging back sore riders who didn’t feel as fluid or flexible as they would like. As I worked “both sides of the saddle”, the joy of riding for horse and human and the trainer’s enthusiasm returned. Performances became effortless and frustrations disappeared.
Experience the change yourself! Schedule a session for assessment, discussion of issues and massage for both you and your horse. We will be able to give your trainer valuable information. Don’t wait until frustration or lameness causes you to quit. I promise your partnerships will deepen and become most rewarding.
Sessions are done at the barn. I will set up a massage table in a stall or quiet area for people. Horses are massaged/stretched in their stall or on crossties. I am also able to offer sessions for people at my Berwick home or Eliot studio, Solfege Center for Healing. Ask for details.

INTEGRATED INTUITIVE MASSAGE and ENERGY PRACTICES
Your body is a finely tuned instrument that sometimes goes flat. An integrated massage session is the perfect way to sharpen you up. We begin with a holistic nursing assessment to determine the root cause of your pain and discomfort. Often, pain is intensified by fear of never getting better and worry over loss of function. After gaining an understanding of what caused an imbalance, Cindy applies the most relevant tools and techniques to bring you from discomfort and dysfunction to improved movement and flexibility. A combination of massage techniques unique to your needs may include moderate and deep tissue massage, lymphatic drainage, myofascial release, trigger point therapy, reiki, polarity therapy, vibrational sound therapy and guided meditation for a comprehensive treatment.

VIBRATIONAL SOUND THERAPY
Cindy is a certified vibrational sound therapist and is eager to help bring three part harmony to your body,mind and soul. Vibrational sound therapy (VST) is a combination of powerful vibration and tones to induce an immediate relaxed state. Zen Therapeutic Singing Bowls are especially made for vibrational sound that has a subdued volume and purer tone than other singing bowls. The gentle tones of VST elicit the relaxation response, triggering the parasympathetic nervous system. We are able to focus our minds fostering stronger concentration and balanced moods while reducing fatigue. A focused mind will deal better with anger, frustration and boost confidence to help handle problems.
We also offer a group sound healing experience
