🦎Ever wondered why the EMMETT Technique logo is a chameleon?
Just as chameleons intuitively adjust to their environments, the EMMETT Technique adapts to meet the unique needs of each individual, promoting relaxation and overall wellbeing.
Our chameleon logo represents the technique's core philosophy - that effective bodywork isn't about applying the same approach to everyone, but being responsive, gentle, and precisely what each
person needs.
Whether working with humans, dogs, or horses, the EMMETT Technique embodies the chameleon's wisdom of observing and responding with exactly the right touch at the right moment.
This adaptability is why "The Chameleon Approach to Body Therapy" has become our defining message - capturing the essence of what makes EMMETT
truly special.
There are a couple of spots left next week and more availability from 8 September.

What is Emmett? The Emmett Technique, created by Ross Emmett, is a gentle light touch therapy that is used to ease muscle pain, tension and discomfort, increase movement and bring balance back to the body and mind. Well established in more than 35 countries worldwide the Technique is used on both humans and animals.
How does it work? The Emmett Technique uses specific sensors on the skin (Emmett points) which allow access to the brain via the therapist’s touch. The stimulation of these points is registered by the receiver’s nervous system and their brain responds by sending new instructions back to affect the physical state of the localised area. The result is often instantaneous physical change. (emmett-technique-hq.com)
How can it help my horse?
Some of the symptoms which may be relieved include:
Saddle soreness and girthing issues
Tension in neck, back and lumbar area
Restricted movement
Unbalanced or stiff gait or stance
Sports injuries or accidents
Poor performance and behavioural change
Anxiety and emotional release
How is it different to other body work? The Emmett Technique is a neuro-muscular therapy which works with the horse’s nervous system. The Emmett corrections facilitate your horse to release its own tight and painful muscles, altering negative muscle memory and providing a long lasting result.
How does Emmett improve emotional wellbeing? As well as the ability to directly influence muscle action, Emmett points may have a memory or emotional attachment. Treatment is extremely relaxing for your horse and can facilitate the release of emotions and past experiences, improving wellbeing. I always encourage the owner to handle their horse during an Emmett session as it can be a profound bonding experence, improving trust and harmony in your relationship.
