Jim was the equine bodywork therapist for the 2006, 2008, 2010, 2012 and 2014 USEF Endurance Teams, and has worked on thousands of horses in aa rated competitions in the United States and in FEI Nations Cup, Pan American, World Equestrian Games competitions. He now teaches his unique method of equine bodywork to horse owners and therapists around the world, in which the horse participates in the process by showing the practitioner where tension has accumulated and when it has been released. The result is an effective method that anyone can learn to improve performance and open new levels of communication and trust with the horse.
Jim’s books and videos have been translated into seven languages and have sold over 75,000 copies, and Masterson Method Courses have been attended by more than 6000 like-minded horse people worldwide.
