WELCOME, ANIMAL LOVER!
I’m Kris Laroche
Teacher turned Equine bodyworker specializing in nervous system-based techniques that help horses release tension, move more freely, and return to a state of deep relaxation and balance.
Through hands-on work rooted in functional neurology and applied kinesiology, I support horses in resolving patterns that impact performance, behavior, and overall well-being. (Dogs and other animals, too!!
YOU’RE HERE TO MAKE A REAL difference for your horse.
This work goes beyond mechanics.
It’s about listening to the intelligence of the horse’s body and supporting true regulation from the inside out.
You’re here for the moments when everything in your horse finally says yes—
when movement feels fluid, the body softens, and there’s a clear sense of ease and connection.
Because when a horse is holding tension, compensating, or overriding its own natural patterns, it shows up in everything—movement, behavior, and performance.
In this work, we don’t force, push, or override the body’s wisdom.
We listen.
We follow what the horse is actually showing us.
And we support real release and regulation from the inside out—even when the path there requires patience, precision, and a willingness to look deeper.
Because your horse’s nervous system is not something to override—it’s something to listen to.
Their body knows when something is off.
When they’re compensating. Holding tension. Trying to perform without true ease.
And over time, that “almost okay” way of going stops working.
I’ve walked away from approaches that force outcomes instead of supporting the horse from within.
And I’ve spent years working hands-on with horses—refining a way of listening to the body that allows real release, improved movement, and deeper regulation.
Because you’ve landed here, there’s a reason.
You’re ready to support your horse at a deeper level—the kind that creates lasting change, not temporary fixes.
The kind that brings softness, freedom, and a genuine sense of connection back into your horse’s body.
Whether I’m working with you in the barn, traveling to your location, or supporting your horse through remote sessions anywhere in the world…
this work meets you there.
MY GIFT TO YOU IS THIS:
I create a steady, attuned space where your horse can let go of tension and return to balance, supporting deeper shifts in how their body moves and functions.
This is the work:
Releasing the tension, restriction, and compensation patterns your horse has been carrying—often for years.
Restoring real movement, real softness, and a nervous system that can finally settle and function the way it’s meant to.
No forcing. No overriding. No chasing symptoms.
Because your horse isn’t here to brace, push through discomfort, or “just get by.”
They’re built to move freely, feel safe in their body, and perform with ease..
What this looks like for your horse
The kind of change that feels almost too good to be true-
Releasing the patterns that keep them tight, restricted, and stuck—so they can move, perform, and feel the way they’re meant to.
1. Release What’s Been Held in the Body
Most horses are carrying patterns of tension, compensation, and restriction that don’t resolve on their own.
You can train around it. You can manage it.
But until the body actually releases it, it stays.
This work supports your horse in letting go of those patterns at the level of the nervous system—the master of the body-so change isn’t temporary, it’s real.
This is root cause work.
2. Restore Natural Movement and Function
When a horse can’t move well, it’s not just mechanical—it’s neurological.
Tightness, imbalance, and resistance are often the result of a system that isn’t fully regulated.
By working directly with the nervous system, we restore better coordination, balance, and flow—so your horse can move the way she was made to move.
3. Create a Horse That Can Actually Relax
A horse that can’t relax can’t truly perform. In fact, he can’t truly BE with you.
Bracing, holding, pushing through—these become the norm.
This work helps shift your horse out of that constant state of tension and into a place of real softness, safety, and ease.
And from there, everything changes—
behavior, performance, and connection.
“As a bodyworker, Kris possesses that unspoken energy. She is humble, never assumes she knows everything, and never operates from ego — just a pure desire to serve.”
– Edie
You’re here because you want more than surface-level fixes for your horse.
You want real, lasting change. You want a horse that moves freely, releases tension, and performs at their best—not just physically, but with a regulated nervous system and soft, balanced body.
That’s what I do. I help horses move, relax, and thrive.
I combine applied kinesiology, functional neurology, and nervous system-based work to create results that go beyond what most bodyworkers can offer.
My approach isn’t cookie-cutter. I don’t just “massage” a horse or push through tight spots.
I listen to the horse’s nervous system, identifying patterns of tension and compensation that often go unnoticed.
I work hands-on in person or remotely, worldwide, supporting horses at a deeper level so changes stick—improving performance, flexibility, and overall well-being.
Years of dedicated study with Dr. Sid Erickson, DVM, a brilliant equine master helped me ground into the fundamentals of applied kinesiology and functional neurology. I am writing his book as well, so stay tuned!
What this work looks like for your horse…
Horses I work with experience …
improved movement, balance, and flexibility, reduced tension, bracing, and chronic patterns.
They also experience better performance under saddle or in hand, a softer, more regulated nervous system, and a body that finally feels comfortable, relaxed, and functional.
Whether your horse struggles with stiffness, chronic tension, or performance challenges—or you just want them to feel amazing in their body—this work meets them where they are and supports real, lasting change.
How I Work With You
I meet you and your horse where you are—in person at your barn or clinic, or through remote sessions anywhere in the world.
I collaborate with you every step of the way, ensuring your horse feels safe, supported, and able to release what’s holding them back.
This isn’t just bodywork—it’s a partnership with your horse’s nervous system, allowing real freedom, ease, and performance that lasts.
A little about my philosophy..
bring the same curiosity, observation, and reverence to horses that I’ve cultivated in my life:
slowing down, noticing the small signals, and trusting what the body tells us.
My work is grounded, results-driven, and unapologetically focused on what actually changes your horse—not just what looks nice.
Whether you’re looking to improve your horse’s movement, release chronic tension, or restore balance and comfort, I help them move, relax, and thrive.
Hands-on or remote, local or worldwide, this is the work that creates real results—for your horse and for you.
Remote Bodywork That Actually Works—No Matter the Distance
Distance doesn’t dilute results. I can work with your horse as though they are right in front of me—releasing tension, restoring balance, and resetting the nervous system—without physically being there. This isn’t “guided exercises” or asking someone else to do it for you. This is real, hands-on bodywork delivered remotely, with horses responding immediately and measurably.
How does it work? Horses, like all living systems, are made of energy, intelligence, and connection. When you tune in at the level of the nervous system, the body responds. Think of it like this: you’ve felt the moment someone calls just as you were thinking of them. Or how music can make your body shift without touching it. This work operates in the same field—the energetic, electrical, living field that connects us all. My mentor taught me how to access this with precision and intention, and it began with one simple step: believing it’s possible.
In practice, this means your horse can release patterns of tension, soften deeply, and move more freely—while I’m hundreds or thousands of miles away. It’s subtle, it’s powerful, and it works because it’s rooted in the horse’s body, nervous system, and energy field. This is next-level bodywork that transcends distance, giving your horse the freedom and alignment they deserve—anywhere in the world.
Because we’re all in this together.
Once your horse experiences this form of bodywork—functional neurology in action—you won’t look back. This is next-level, cutting-edge work that feels almost impossible: gentle, subtle, yet profoundly powerful. It releases tension, restores alignment, and rewires the nervous system in ways you didn’t think were possible. Horses respond at a deep, instinctual level because this work taps into the healing power of the vagus nerve, unlocking relaxation, regulation, and fluid movement that lasts. You are stepping into a modality that few have seen, one that is quietly transforming the way horses move, perform, and feel—and that will take the equine world by storm. Once you feel it, you’ll understand why gentle can be the most potent force of all.
