Why Selah? 

 

Selah is a word commonly found at the end of many Psalms in the Bible and is widely accepted to indicate a pause for the reader to reflect on what they have learned.  Selah Equine Massage LLC can offer the therapeutic pause needed before your next great ride by improving your equine's mood, gait, and performance.

How Does Massage Therapy Work?

Massage therapy can improve mood through the release of endorphins as the massage therapist manipulates the musculature.  Through manipulation of the musculature, massage therapy also stretches the tissues, improving flexibility and gait.  Massage therapy also improves circulation throughout the musculature, which aids in removing waste products such as carbon dioxide while promoting distributing oxygen and other healing properties in the blood throughout the body.  Massage therapy can also promote good blood pressure.
