Jackie has owned and cared for her own horses for over forty years. She graduated from the EquiTouch Massage School, and developed an equine massage and acupressure business. She has recently developed an introductory massage clinic program to encourage horse owners to develop a deeper bond and connection with their horses using hands-on massage, and perhaps stir an interest in their taking one of the more comprehensive massage clinics.
Jackie got frustrated with the lack of tools available to help her keep records on the horses she massaged; and she felt that giving her clients a hand scribbled report on the work she had done did not give a very professional appearance.
As a result, EquiTracker - Massage was conceived to solve those problems.
