What is The Masterson Method?®

The Masterson Method® is a gentle, interactive form of equine bodywork that works with the horse to release tension, improve comfort, and support natural, balanced movement.

About me

Hi, I'm Laynie Tacornal...

a Masterson Method Certified Practitioner® and founder of Dark Horse Integrated Bodywork. I offer Masterson Method® equine bodywork to help horses move freely, find balance, and feel their best. Based in Knoxville, TN, I provide mobile sessions, bringing gentle, supportive bodywork directly to your horse in the comfort of its familiar environment.

 

My education was extensive, teaching me to work with the horse, not to the horse. By observing movement from an anatomical perspective, I tailor each session to support your horse’s comfort, balance, and overall well-being.

​

I am passionate about what I do and take pride in offering personalized, professional, and compassionate care to every horse I work with. My goal is to help your horse feel its best, move with ease, and thrive in its daily life.

​

Whether your horse is a competitive athlete, a trail companion, or simply deserves some extra attention, I’m here to provide sessions that promote relaxation, release tension, and enhance movement — all while respecting the unique personality and needs of each horse.
