Catherin Gunkel

As a former human physiotherapist from Germany, I found my love in working with horses in Calgary, Alberta. I am a certified MMCP (Masterson Method Practitioner), and constantly learning about fascia and the tensegrity model of the body.

My biggest interest is in getting a better understanding of the interconnections within the body. My question is how to find the ‘entry door’ for the specific horse to work with the nervous system, neuroplasticity and remodeling of fascia to support lasting change in posture and movement.

I love to share my knowledge with my clients, as the owner is the instrumental part for any change in the horse. Empowered horse owners empower their horse in a healthy, happy and long life.

As my trainer Dr. Veronika von Rohrscheidt is saying: There are no difficult horses, only horses with difficulties!
