About Equi-Bow

The Equi-Bow modality provides a distinct and unique experience for individuals seeking to support their horse’s well-being. This modality approach can rebalance your horse’s body and restore fascia and muscle harmony. Activating your horse’s nervous system can be accomplished by rebooting the messaging system, by using powerful tools and techniques. Fascia, which surrounds all parts of the body, provides structural support. This structural support is crucial for the body’s overall function and movement. Additionally, the fascia plays a key roll in sending cellular messages to the brain. These messages help the brain understand and respond to changes and stimuli throughout the body. By utilizing a specific series of gentle rolling moves on the body, I can send “reboot” signals for the brain to assess, then adjust the body accordingly.

By generalizing a piezoelectric charge in the fascia tissue through rolling movements, we can establish direct communication with the neurological system. This communication helps in identifying physiological issues like posture imbalances, pain or dysfunction within a muscle or joint. Such awareness enables the body to transition the autonomic nervous system from a sympathetic (fight or flight) to a parasympathetic (rest & digest) state.

When the body is in a parasympathetic state, it becomes more aware and responsive to internal changes. This enables the body’s neurological and immune systems to correct any imbalances, as well as to heal and cultivate a peaceful demeanor.

"During Cora's first treatment with Crystal I could sense a strong sense of calm from her to the point that she tried to lay down in the cross ties. Throughout the treatment Crystal took the time to provide insightful commentary so I could understand what impact each element of the treatment was expected to have. It was an incredible experience to see this happen before my eyes. In the days following the treatment, I could see a noticeable change in Cora. She was rolling in the field and resting peacefully in her stall. Thank you Crystal! "

"My vet came out for chiro work on Nyah yesterday, She has NEVER seen Nyah in such good condition. She had a lot of bounce in her booty where she’s normally really sore through her SI.. glutes etc. She has almost 0 pain anywhere except for some tightness in her pole from me having the kids and beginner riders on her face. She was so impressed I told her I had body work done really recently, and had been doing what you advised! She said she was just very loose and relaxed and limber. I’m so happy, can’t wait to have you back!"

"Zara, my mare, totally enjoyed & appreciated her Equi-Bow sessions with Crystal. Crystal was gentle & sensitive to how Zara was feeling. I felt very comfortable with the sessions Crystal had with Zara. Zara says thanks!"

"Crystal Johnson came out and worked on Tilly and Malone, doing equibow sessions. I honestly did not expect to see such a difference in the 3 sessions she had with them. The horses thoroughly enjoyed having her out. Their muscles looked more relaxed, they even looked more hydrated the next day and had a “fuller” appearance. I would recommend that anyone try this with their horses, at least a few sessions and be sure to call Crystal to do it! It took until the 2nd session, but she won Tilly’s approval and that was enough to convince me that it was making her feel better!"

"Crystal worked on my 31 year old arthritic quarter horse. While he was on medication to help with his arthritis, I was looking for anything further that could make him feel more comfortable. I watched his sessions with Crystal… and noticed how in tune she was with his signals. She could instantly tell when she was working on one of his really tough spots, and also when he would finally give in and release some tension. He always looked more relaxed after his sessions. Most of all I could tell how much Crystal cares about the horses she is working on. She is always thinking of ways to help them find more comfort… and really goes above and beyond for the horse’s well being. Highly recommend Crystal!"
