About

Hi, I am Jacinda of Shirvale Equine Rehabilitation.

For those of you who don’t know me, I am an equine musculoskeletal & rehabilitation therapist that is passionate about all things horses!

My mission is to connect & guide as many horses as possible back to their innate proudness. Where they are so captivating, mesmerising that we can not take our eyes off them, and think to ourselves, how is that my horse! Where they can thrive within their body and environment, are adaptable, and feel safe to connect with us.

I would like to give a special thank you to my beautiful horses, past and present – Lady, Harry, Ronan, Venia, Mosca & Angie- who have been some of my greatest teachers in life and my career, thank you for choosing me <3
