Testimonials
Diane is a critical part of my high performance horses' program.. She is a gifted therapist that is highly effective at identifying and resolving body issues, yet keenly aware of the need for patience and empathy while the horses process her work.. They trust her to be cautious with their sensitivities and respond favorably to the combination of massage and passive stretching - releasing tension and really letting the bodywork do its magic..

My first ride 2 days after my horse's first session with Diane was *amazing*. My horse was soft and wiggly (but good wiggly! Just trying out all his "new" parts) and right from the start his back was up and soft. It was a long/low/stretchy/bendy lesson, but he had a much easier time stepping under yet keeping his balance. No tension breathing, minimal bracing and much more willing to soften and go truly forward without rushing. I really can't wait to see the dressage horse come out after a few more sessions - it's been in there, just locked away! - Sarah Jenkinson
This is my first experience with bodywork and what a difference! My retired 18 year old event horse literally trotted to the gate the next morning so that I could put his saddle on and feel how good HE felt. My current competition horse has always braced at the canter and is now engaged and supple.
I highly recommend Diane!

Because of her talent, passion and intuition, Diane has quickly become an integral and essential part of our training program at Breezy Hill South. She has helped our horses excel in every arena (dressage to hunters) and they absolutely LOVE her!
She has made such a difference in their health, happiness and performance and I don't know what we ever did without her!
Thank you Diane!!

Diane has worked on my horse twice now and actually I was amazed at her initial session and the response Dotado had to her soft, gentle energy and detailed body work. He was completely relaxed and receptive to everything.
She is so obviously dedicated to helping horses rehab or just to keep the performance horses sound and healthy and her knowledge of the equine body both "inside and out" is quite impressive.
So thankful she has made her home in Aiken!

After one session with Diane I could tell a big difference in my mare. Diane is very skilled and I love her rapport with my horse. I new very quickly that Diane was going to become an integral part of our training program. We are lucky to have a professional of her caliber right here in Aiken. I look forward to great results in the future.

Diane is an amazing equine bodyworker. She has a deep understanding of equine anatomy and the way everything is connected in the body. This knowledge allows her to work with the horse to release tension and improve comfort and performance. She has an endless appetite for knowledge and continuing education that will help her improve the horses well being. As a saddle fitter, I love working with Diane because she recognizes the impact saddle fit has on the horse. I am able to consult with her when horses are sore from an ill fitting saddle and use her expertise to help restore damaged tissue. She us a true pleasure to work with - Miriam Graybeal
