Supporting horses to feel more balanced in their bodies both emotionally and physically
Beverley Upton is an Equine Bodyworker who is passionate about creating lasting changes in our horses.
Bodywork that starts with understanding the nervous system.
Every horse has a story held in their body. My approach is guided by curiosity, patience and respect, helping you understand what your horse may be communicating rather than seeing them as wrong or difficult, and using this feedback to
Gentle bodywork sessions
Thoughtful, horse-led sessions that create space for your horse to settle, soften and be heard at their own pace.
Support for stressed horses
Explore how stress can affect a horse’s body, behaviour and sense of safety, with bodywork informed by the nervous system.
Training-aware care
Training shapes the horse’s experience. We consider its physical and emotional impact to support comfort, connection and confidence.
Support for you and your horse
Gain a clearer understanding of your horse and discover compassionate ways to support their wellbeing in day-to-day life.
A horse is not wrong—they may be misunderstood
At Balanced Bodywork Equine Therapy, we believe horses deserve to feel safe, comfortable and understood. Our work looks beyond labels and behaviours, recognising that a horse’s responses can reflect their experiences, stress and the demands placed upon them. We aim to help horses feel more at home in their bodies, so they can enjoy being with us as much as we love being with them.
Making space for your horse to be heard
Bodywork is not about forcing change. It is an opportunity to slow down, observe with care and support your horse’s natural capacity for balance.
