SERVICES OFFERED
Equine Foundational Therapy,
Joint Mobilization, and More
Initial sessions are an in-depth look at your horse from head to hoof to tail. I will EVALUATE their musculature, posture, and diet if desired. We will develop a plan tailored to your specific goals. Are you looking to make them more comfortable in their retirement, returning from an injury (with vet clearance), or taking their performance to the next level? Whatever your goals may be, we will work together to make them a reality. If it is beyond my scope, I have many excellent resources to refer to throughout Texas, including trainers, farriers/barefoot trimmers, dentists, veterinarians, and chiropractors.
EFT is a gentle, effective, and holistic approach to improving a horse’s physical and emotional well-being. Its light-touch techniques and focus on the nervous system and fascia make it ideal for addressing a wide range of issues, from muscle tension and injury recovery to behavioral changes and systemic imbalances. By promoting relaxation, improving circulation, and supporting the body’s natural healing processes, EFT enhances performance, prevents injuries, and fosters a happier, healthier horse.
For optimal results, after the application of the physical EFT manipulations, I then use a wide range of Joint Mobilization techniques that are gentle and rhythmic approach (no thrusting like chiropractic, but as effective, if not more, in many cases) and very effective in correcting gait abnormalities, saddle fitting issues, and mysterious lameness issues. These moves release and keep (with custom exercise plans) the skeleton in proper form and function. This helps the body to load the joints and hooves correctly.
Together, the joint mobilization and the profound fascia and muscle unwinding of EFT from the inside out gives the horse a taller and longer body, and it looks like it had been vacuum sealed prior. After a single session, I “punctured the seals,” making them fuller and smoother.
EDUCATE and FACILITATE. As mentioned, if desired, we can also review corrective exercises to improve their posture, tone, and functionality, and evaluate your feeding program to remove or add a few things to help them thrive.
Per Session $125
Kinesiology Taping
Manual therapies used in sessions with me are various highly effective compression techniques that range from "gently asking" to "telling" the stagnation and tension in the tissue to move out. We then want fresh, healing, oxygenated blood to return to repair and lubricate that tissue. Kinesiology Taping DE-compresses the areas it is applied to further encourage all that healing goodness to come back into those areas by gently lifting the hair follicles and skin. The tape is also a wonderful tool for your horse's proprioception, aka body awareness, when retraining their brain/body connection when returning from an injury or EPM.

ABOUT ME
A Bit About Myself and What I Do
Hello! My name is Layla Harris. I was born and raised in California, where my mom owned and operated a sales and lesson barn. I had the incredible privilege of riding hundreds of horses while growing up and having my mom instill in me that horses are sentient beings and high-performance athletes that need care, just like any professional athlete might. For a horse, as with any professional athlete, it takes a village of experts who train both horse and rider, specializing in saddle fitting, nutrition, perfectly balanced hooves, teeth, and so on. In this village, I minister to their health via a balanced mind, body, and nervous system. It is all connected, as it is in us.
We always had the best veterinarians, chiropractors, farriers, and so on.
But something was still missing. When drugs or surgeries would not help the horse, we were left feeling hopeless and disempowered.
That’s when I became motivated to explore other possibilities. I began using red and infrared LED light therapy on my horses and got excellent results! Next came the realization of the importance of detoxifying my horses and feeding a more species-appropriate diet. My curiosity led me to explore and apply new and effective modalities. I’ve been a professional Bodyworker since 2014, and my education continues. I also desire to empower other horse lovers who may wonder how to become more self-reliant in caring for their horses. In July 2019, I became a Certified Instructor to teach Holistic Horsework's Level 1 Clinics. In March of 2020, I became Certified to teach Levels 2 and 3. In November 2022, I resigned and developed my own course called
Equine Foundational Therapy Academy, which launched in the Fall of 2024.
Through our sister program, Equine Foundational Therapy Academy, we empower horse owners and enthusiasts to take an active role in their horses’ wellness. Our self-paced online course, priced at $397, includes over three hours of instructional videos and a 40-page workbook that teaches you how to assess and correct muscle tension and biomechanical issues using hands-on techniques. For those seeking a deeper learning experience, our optional 3-day in-person intensive ($600) offers personalized coaching. Whether you’re a rider, trainer, or barn manager, our courses equip you with practical skills to support your horse’s health and performance. Click EFT Academy for more info.
More about what I do;

I leave you, the horse owner, with a report and some strategies for continued success between visits. I've worked with and have helped hundreds of horses and their owners get to the "root" of many issues and strengthen their bond along the way!
I am not a vet or chiropractor, and I do not replace them. I like to think I help to fill in a few gaps between them, and as a whole, all of the bases will be covered on your horse's journey to healing and maintaining good health. I look forward to getting to know you and your crew! Contact me today to help your equine partner feel and perform their best.
Based in Iola, TX, I will travel with a minimum of 1 horse per 30 minutes driven.
