The lady behind the scenes!
Hello nice to meet you, I am Kathy Masters -
I am devoted to helping horses move freely, perform willingly, and thrive in true partnership with their humans. Horses have been part of my life since I first rode at six months old, and my journey spans disciplines including wagon racing, cow horse, barrel racing, and ranch work. I have a deep respect for the horse’s body, mind, and spirit—and for the powerful connection that forms when a horse is truly supported.
I am a Certified Equine Sports Therapist with over 25 years in the health and wellness industry, and am the owner of Ponoka Health & Wellness (est. 2016). With perpetual continued education in many areas of the human natural health area. My work blends equine massage, acupressure, Touch for Health, applied kinesiology, Reiki Master, practical homeopathy, and my role as a Quantum Health Coach using human/equine hair analysis to address the whole horse and person—not just symptoms.
Grounded in extensive training in equine sports therapy, anatomy and physiology, movement, nutritional and structural balance, injury support, and rider-horse alignment, I bring a holistic, intuitive approach to every horse I works with. My vision is simple yet powerful: to help horses and humans feel better in their bodies, move with ease, and perform with confidence—so horse and rider can reach their highest potential together.
