My Background
I'm Erin Barbato, owner of EB Equine. I hold a B.A. in Business Communications from Assumption University. I graduated from Bancroft School of Massage Therapy as a Certified Equine Massage Practitioner in December, 2022. This is an in-depth program with over 200 hours of anatomy, gait analysis and biomechanics, as well as hands-on massage techniques.
I am also a fellow rider, with a deep rooted love for horses (and all animals) that goes beyond my time in the saddle. When I'm not massaging equines you can find me with my husband, two children, and two rescue dogs. Additionally, I volunteer at a local animal shelter, working with dogs awaiting their forever homes.
