Do you notice that your horse bends or flexes easily to one side, while the other side feels noticeably more difficult?
Contact through the hand may feel uneven.
In turns, the connection lacks consistency — the neck may feel shortened, and bending does not seem to travel through the body in a balanced way. Some horses already react sensitively to touch in the neck or poll area — tensing, moving away, or avoiding contact altogether.
Many riders try to address this by doing more:
more riding, different exercises, more stretching.
And yet, the pattern often returns.
Not because you are doing something wrong — but because this sensitive area often lacks clear, structured, horse-friendly guidance on how to work with neck and poll positioning, bending, and contact in a clear and consistent way.
The key is not doing more — but understanding how.
Who This Online Course Is For
This course is right for you if:
your horse reacts sensitively or appears tense in the neck or poll area, or feels uneven from side to side
flexion and bending feel more difficult on one side, or seem possible mainly to one direction
during riding, contact feels inconsistent and the horse tends to withdraw through the neck or brace at times
in transitions, the neck feels shortened or movement through this area appears restricted
your horse reacts sensitively to touch in the neck or poll area — moving away or tensing
you are looking for a simple, clear routine that can be easily integrated into everyday work
you value a structured, attentive, and responsible approach when working with your horse
This course is not suitable if:
Awareness and mindful contact are the foundation of my work.
The massage gun is a supportive tool — not the starting point.
My work – and why this online course was created
Many riders experience similar challenges in their horse’s neck and poll area:
Some horses react through the poll area by tossing the head or becoming unsettled — especially in turns or when contact is requested. Not because the horse is “difficult,” but because this sensitive area often needs clearer support and more precise guidance than it typically receives.
In my work with horses, I see this pattern again and again:
tension and asymmetry in the neck and poll area that influence flexion, bending, and the connection — without a single obvious cause.
My foundation is always hands-on work:
feeling, observing, and responding to what the horse shows.
But in the neck and poll area there are situations where manual work alone reaches its limits — for example, when direct contact becomes uncomfortable for the horse.
That is where I use the massage gun.
Not as a replacement for feel, but as a targeted, supportive extension of what I perceive with my hands. The focus is not intensity, but precision: where you work, how you work, and when to stop. Horses respond very sensitively to clear, well-placed impulses. Used thoughtfully, the massage gun offers a way to approach this area without pressure or force.
This practical experience is the foundation of this online course.
You’ll learn step by step how to work with a massage gun in the neck and poll area, and how to identify suitable application points — clearly structured and practice-oriented.
This course does not replace veterinary diagnosis or treatment. It provides orientation and a practical framework for working with the back and hindquarters area in a structured, horse-friendly way.
