Acupressure - Tallgrass Canada With Jesse McGowan

As equine bodyworkers, we often work in multiple modalities of soft tissue. One such modality that is gaining in popularity for the benefits it can deliver in a gentle and affective way, is acupressure.

Today we talk with Tallgrass Canada owner, Jesse McGowan in regards to acupressure and how it can compliment or stand alone as an option in woking with equine and canine athletes.

Jesse holds a bachelor of science in animal behaviour as well as her training in complimentary therapies of acupressure, iridology and reiki. She owns and operates her own practice in Ontario, Canada called Birch Animal Wellness (https://www.birchanimalwellness.com) as well as owning and operating the Tallgrass Canada division (https://www.tallgrasscanada.com). Tallgrass Canada has many workshops available to any and all levels of students interested in acupressure. You can check out their website and see more about their offerings there as well as following them on their social media sites @tallgrasscanada.

Tina and I had a great conversation with Jesse to delve deeper into acupressure as well as to clearly distinguish between acuPRESSURE and acuPUNCTURE. So sit back and listen in as we look into this modality.
