Instructor Bio:

Morgan was born and raised in Alberta and has remained a resident of Parkland County for the last 10 years. She had dreams of becoming a veterinarian, but then thought "Oh man, too much school!", so took her path to becoming a veterinary technician. But her fascination and dedication to animal care has driven her into the realm of offering various remedial therapies for horses and dogs, and even cats too! Her journey into all of this truly started for caring for her own horses, and realizing how much our horses deserve the best dedicated care. She recently had the opportunity to work with Dr. Angelique, a person she looks up to in the therapist world. She wanted to bring the raindrop treatment to light for other therapists. After being introduced to this modality and using it on her personal horse consistently, she was amazed on how well it paired with his ongoing arthritic issues. She poured her soul into researching the modality and performing it to feel confident it would benefit other practitioners alike to be able to offer to their patients.
