Equine Body Balance is proud to add Certified Practitioners to the practice and this website. Each person who has completed the EBB Certification Program will be listed here with their individual abilities. While bodywork may seem to some to be a manipulation of joints, soft tissue, etc., this practice includes but surpasses those expectations. It is an energetic, intuitive connection that prompts the body to heal itself and addresses all body systems.
