Hello!
My name is Christina Rosenberg
Equinetics Sport Horse Rehab has been a vision of mine since the final year of my physical therapy program. Through chatting with fellow horse owners and several veterinarians, I recognized that there is a need for certified equine rehabilitation professionals. There is especially a need for these professionals who can also evaluate the rider from a physical therapy perspective in order to address the whole team. My goal is to help the rider as well as the horse to become the best team possible through hands-on treatment and education.
I grew up in Southern California and was introduced to horseback riding at the age of 6. I fell in love immediately and there was no going back! I learned how to ride both Western and English and spent most of my showing career in the ring with my miniature horses. As I got older, I decided to invest my time in the Hunter/Jumpers although I still have my minis and love them dearly. I recently added a Holsteiner gelding to my herd and look forward to learning more from him in the Hunter and Equitation rings.
I graduated in August 2022 with my Doctorate in Physical Therapy from the University of St. Augustine for Health Sciences and received my license in North Carolina.* I have since been working towards becoming a well-rounded equine healthcare professional. I received my Equine Sports Massage Therapist (ESMT) certification in December 2022. I am also taking courses to become a Certified Equine Rehabilitation Practitioner (CERP) through the University of Tennessee, and plan to complete this program in the Spring of 2023.
As of right now, I am able to offer Equine BEMER Therapy and Equine Bodywork. I am also able to address any impairments or limitations that you as the rider may be experiencing through physical therapy.* If you have pain or discomfort in or out of the saddle, mobility restrictions, or strength deficits, I may be able to help!
For any other questions, please reach out using the email or phone number below or on the "Connect" page. I look forward to working with you and your horse!
