History of Equine Dry Salt Therapy & Massage
How it all began
Salt Therapy, Also known As Halotherapy has been used for centuries to improve respiratory & skin conditions in both humans and animals. In 1946 Salt Therapy was introduced in Scandinavia after an outbreak of polopmyelitis. Hippotherapy, as practiced was developed in the 1960s when it began to be used in Germany, Switzerland & Austria as an adjunct to traditional physical therapy.
Equine Massage-The modern practice of equine massage began to take shape in the 20th century. As equestrian sports and horse racing gained popularity, the need for specialized equine therapies grew. This led to the formalization of equine massage techniques and the establishment of training programs and certifications.
Meet your Equine Wellness Partner
Hi, I’m Christina Rountree – a lifelong Texan, dedicated equine wellness advocate, and the founder of Equi-Vive: Equine Massage & Dry Salt Therapy. My mission is to support the health and performance of horses through natural, holistic therapies.
My passion for horses began in childhood and has grown into a lifelong commitment to their care. That connection inspired me to pursue advanced training in equine massage and dry salt therapy to help horses feel and perform their best.
As a Certified Equine Massage Therapist and Dry Salt Therapy Practitioner, I provide customized, hands-on treatments that promote relaxation, ease muscle tension, support respiratory health, and improve overall well-being.
I’m proud to serve horses across Texas and beyond—bringing comfort, care, and balance to these incredible animals.
