About Becky

A Horse Lover and Therapist Who Cares

A Horse Lover and Therapist Who Cares

A Horse Lover and Therapist Who Cares

 

Becky Sherwood has had a passion for horses since she was a small child. Growing up, her family was the place to go when you had trouble with a horse. Either health wise or behaviorally, they took in horses that were deemed unwanted for whatever reasons. A large majority of them were brought around to become the horses that they should be for the people that needed them. This was accomplished by many miles, lots of time and having the ability to understand how the horse works. 

Becky and her family spent most of their summers on wagon trains, trail rides, and cattle drives. These were places where Becky gained bountiful knowledge from old ranchers, teamsters, and horsemen. A portion of the knowledge gained is being shared in the program that she provides.  

Once Becky Sherwood got married. Her husband, Travis Sherwood, continued to feed her love for horses. As well as, encouraging the education that has driven her never ending appetite for the inner and outer  working of the human and the horse.

Becky Sherwood graduated Massage therapy in 2004 to become a fully registered massage therapist. From there, the information gathering continued. In 2008, Becky met a gentleman at her family home, and after watching him perform body work on a horse, the start of her horse body work chase for knowledge began. The drive for knowledge was immediate! When she asked this man to share his knowledge with her, he replied “No”.  She promised to not disappoint him with her ability to learn and understand and it was all in from there.  

Between adding knowledge, working on many horses, and learning what works and what to modify, body balancing became a whole successful program on its own that is ever evolving. 

When the Minkler energy balancing course was available, Becky took the opportunity to learn from brilliant teachers and a wonderful program. Becky is honored to be granted permission to share that knowledge through teaching others. They gave her the opportunity to take a horse body balance program that James Minkler had started before his passing. His family offered her the opportunity to take that information and expand on it, giving her the continuing information to become the Equine Education program you see here.

This is an accumulation of information that makes for a program that is efficient and proven to create a healthier balanced horse.

Becky has had the privilege to take many different courses through out the years and they have given her the context to create and build new avenues of health and wellness for both humans and horses. 

Information gathered should be information shared. Becky's program will be forever evolving as the vast information out there is too great to harness.

 Becky was recommended to me after an issue with my dog at an agility trial. She was having difficulty moving with her normal ease, the emergency vets said nothing was wrong, so I drove to Edmonton to meet her. After 2 sessions with Becky her movement was so improved and she was back to normal. Since then we try to see her as often as possible. I live a distance away, but trust her implicitly so will make the trip or meet her where I can When she’s available. Her handling and assessing the dogs is amazing, I have Learned so much from her working in my dog and recommend her to all my friends. I do Not think we would be running and competing at the level we are without her work on my girl. She is quite literally the best!

 Becky has been such an integral part of my success with my dog is the sport of PSA (Protection Sport Association). This dog sport involves a lot of physical demand on my dog and the adjustments Becky has given Priya have made such a big difference is keeping her agile to prevent injury but also allows her to perform to her full potential. I am always amazed at how much more freely she moves when Becky is done with her.  Becky has also helped me with puppy injuries, taking a puppy that I believed potentially needed surgery as he was so restricted in motion after an injury, as well as everything she has done on my grumpy senior horses giving them so much relief.  She’s more than just what meets the eye kinda gal. She is very intuitive and and offers more advice and therapy that what you bargained for!  You’re a breath of fresh air Becky! Never stop being you and never stop advocating for all those animals who need your help.  Colette

Taking the Equine Body Balancing course by Becky  has been an incredible journey. I have gained immense amounts of knowledge of the horse, horse body language, health and different techniques in how to help horses and their owners. This course has given me many tools in how to educate others on the health and well being of their horse, better awareness of body mechanics and a better and broader understanding of horses. The course is fun, attuned to practical hands on learning and ensuring proper understanding and practice of the techniques. Becky has years of experience and multiple disciplines that she brings into the course. Her thorough teaching, life examples and kind, encouraging personality has made this an unforgettable and incredible experience. I really liked the personal one on one teaching. Her patience and answers to our multiple questions has been invaluable in this course. Equine Body Balancing is a beneficial course to any horse owner or those in the equine business world.
