Light Touch Healing Energy Therapy for Horses & Riders

Gentle, Effective Alternative to Massage

Therapeutic Energetic Reconnection (TER)®

A unique energy therapy delivered through light touch, where healing energy helps reconnect and balance the body’s energy system wherever realignment is needed.
TER is a gentle, holistic healing technique that soothes the body, calms the emotions, and quiets the mind. It is the ultimate relaxation therapy and highly effective for stress, anxiety, pain relief, calming symptoms of chronic illness, and much more. Many inflammatory and autoimmune conditions respond positively to TER, as well as a wide range of pain and discomfort. The effects of TER are cumulative, meaning successive treatments deepen and sustain the benefits. TER is a gentle, effective, and supportive adjunct to overall care.

For Horses

TER is gentle enough for even the most sensitive of horses. Unlike massage, TER is delivered with a light touch. There is no pressure or rubbing, nothing to irritate or worry a horse, and no possibility of overdoing it or any after-treatment soreness. Common relaxation responses during treatment include lowering the head and neck, licking and chewing, sneezing and blowing through the nose, increased gut sounds, shifting hind feet from side to side, shivering of muscles, and softening of the eye.

For Humans

Unlike massage, TER is administered fully clothed. Nothing is required except being open and receptive to the benefits of the healing energies. You do not have to be able to still your thoughts, breathe a certain way, or visualize anything. Just be present, relax, and enjoy as the healing energy restores your body’s energy flow and gently supports and balances the energy body to promote healing, relaxation, and recovery on every level.

Each session can be customized to meet the unique needs of every client.

Reiki

Founded by Dr. Mikao Usui of Japan, Reiki is a gentle, holistic practice that helps improve the body’s natural energy flow, which can become blocked or depleted. The word Reiki comes from the Japanese words (Rei) meaning “Universal” and (Ki) meaning “Life Force Energy.”
Reiki recognizes the existence of the energy body and teaches that restoring and unblocking energy flow can bring many therapeutic benefits. It is increasingly being accepted within the medical community as a complementary therapy to support traditional treatment and enhance patient care. In fact, some hospitals have begun incorporating Reiki into their roster of services.

ThetaHealing®

Change your thoughts, change your life! The ThetaHealing® technique, founded by Vianna Stibal, a Naturopath and Medical Intuitive, is based on the understanding that negative thoughts and beliefs — both conscious and subconscious — can hold us back from living a full, productive life. These limiting beliefs may also contribute to stress, lack of success, unhappiness, and even the manifestation of illness and disease in the body.
ThetaHealing® is a process that helps uncover core beliefs and destructive thought patterns connected to present challenges. Once a negative core belief is identified, and with your permission, the practitioner uses Source energy to transform it on all levels of your being, replacing it with a positive belief and empowering new feelings.

Medicinal Aromatherapy

Pure essential oils are the healing essence of medicinal plants. Medicinal Aromatherapy is the ancient art of using plant-derived aromatic oils to promote health and well-being on every level of being. It is often used alongside other therapeutic techniques as part of a holistic approach to healing. The energies of essential oils are a powerful complement to all forms of energy work and enhance TER, Reiki, and ThetaHealing® sessions. Each essence carries a unique vibration with specific healing properties, and together they work in harmony. When pure, medicinal-grade essences are layered one by one, their effects are amplified—blending synergistically while still expressing their individual strengths. These essences provide support for physical, emotional, psychological, and spiritual issues. They can ease transitions, encourage personal growth, and gently bring hidden issues to the surface, where they can be resolved and integrated. At The Spirit of Healing, we use Wisdom of the Earth essential oils, sourced from biodynamic, wildcrafted, and organic farmers. Every step of the process — from growing and harvesting to distilling and pouring — is carried out with the utmost care and respect. Each essence is hand-poured in ceremony to preserve its purest vibration.
