More about Tomiah
Growing up in the Hunters and Equitation, Tomiah would find any and all time to be around horses of every breed and size. Her early foundation in Pony Club and liberty work shaped her values and approach to horsemanship, influencing the way she cared for her own horses and, eventually, her future clients, both in and out of the arena.
Tomiah's eventing journey began shortly after purchasing her first personal horse, Charlie. The basics of show preparation, conditioning, and medical care came naturally to her as she continued to compete.
Following her competitive years, Tomiah relocated to San Luis Obispo to further her education and mastery within the equine massage world. It was here that her hunger for competition evolved into a focused determination to help her equine partners become as balanced, well-rounded, and comfortable as possible. After completing her practical exams and becoming the fifth official graduate of FreelyForwardBodywork's Certification program, Tomiah continues to take what she has learned to each every one of her clients.
What TCM stands for
TCM believes in taking a tailored approach for each horse receiving massage or PEMF services. Taking into account the connectivity of the body as a whole is the foundation of a proper bodyworker. However, I have seen countless examples of why energy within ourselves alters our horses in physical ways. That is why I love to give owners practices they can use daily to implement a calm and safe environment for their horses. Whether it's breathing exercises, basic liberty work, or even a change in how they groom, my main goal after a session is to make sure the relaxation we reached can be maintained as much as possible by the owners until the following massage.
