Hind End Bodywork: Acupressure & Gentle Somatic Release for the Pelvis & Spine
Summary:
In this hands-on mini session, Nicole shares simple yet powerful techniques for supporting the hind end using acupressure points and gentle somatic movement. Working with Dakota at Heartsong, she demonstrates how to locate and stimulate Bai Hui — a deeply effective point for releasing tension in the lumbar-sacral region — and introduces intuitive pelvic rocking techniques to encourage balance, softness, and ease of movement.
Whether you're supporting a horse recovering from discomfort, helping a mare through her cycle, or just wanting to gently reset the nervous system, these techniques are approachable, non-invasive, and deeply grounding.
What You’ll Learn:
How to locate and stimulate Bai Hui (GV2) — an acupressure point that frees up the hind end and supports the nervous system
When and why to use tuning forks (like the 136.1 Hz Ohm frequency) for deeper resonance and relaxation
How to apply gentle pelvic rocking to assess and support movement patterns
Ways to listen for directional ease and meet your horse where their body says “yes”
How subtle somatic techniques support the spine, sacrum, and emotional release
Key Takeaways:
Bai Hui (GV2) is a key point for releasing the hind end, supporting arthritic conditions, and helping mares with cycle-related pain.
Cupping and gentle rocking of the pelvis can create nervous system safety and invite deep postural reset.
Tuning forks (especially Ohm frequency 136.1 Hz) can deepen energetic communication and relaxation.
Directional ease matters. Listening to where your horse flows naturally will help you know where to support and where to pause.
This kind of bodywork doesn’t require force — just breath, intention, and presence.
