About FlowMotion
A whole-horse approach to bodywork and movement
My name is Anna Krén, an equine neuromyoskeletal therapist based in Bunnik, Utrecht. With training in equine physiotherapy at DIPO and a BSc in International Equine Business Management, I combine movement assessment, responsive hands-on bodywork and practical guidance.
At FlowMotion, I don’t look for isolated problems; I look for patterns. I connect movement with posture, muscle tone, coordination and behaviour while listening to every response the horse gives me. Each session is a dialogue, adapted to the horse in front of me, so you leave with a clearer understanding and practical next steps.

FlowMotion does not provide veterinary diagnosis. Horses showing unexplained pain, lameness or sudden changes should be assessed by a veterinarian.
What happens during an equine bodywork session?
Each FlowMotion session combines observation, hands-on bodywork and movement guidance. The process is adapted to your horse rather than following a fixed treatment routine.
1
History and goals
We discuss your horse’s history, workload, management and the changes you have noticed.
2
Movement assessment
I observe posture and movement, compare both sides and look for patterns in balance, coordination and comfort.
3
Responsive
bodywork
Hands-on techniques are selected and continuously adapted to tissue tone, movement and your horse’s responses.

and guidance
We reassess relevant movement patterns and discuss my observations, practical next steps and suitable exercises

agnosis.
Do you travel to my horse?
Yes. FlowMotion is based in Bunnik, Utrecht and travels to private yards and professional stables throughout the Netherlands. International stable visits and treatment days are available by arrangement.
Does my horse need to see a veterinarian first?
Not before every session. However, unexplained pain, lameness, neurological signs or sudden behavioural changes should be assessed by a veterinarian first. If you are unsure, you are always welcome to ask before booking.
How should I prepare my horse for a session?
Please have your horse dry and reasonably clean, with a safe, level area available for movement assessment and bodywork. Avoid strenuous exercise immediately beforehand, and have any relevant veterinary information available. Your horse does not need to be perfectly groomed or exercised before I arrive.
I’m unsure whether I should book. What can I do?
Send me a message describing what you have noticed, along with any relevant history or short movement videos. I will help you decide whether a FlowMotion session is appropriate, which service fits best or whether another professional should be involved first.
Is tailored pricing available for multiple horses?
Yes. Tailored pricing is available for owners with several horses and for larger yards arranging treatment for multiple horses. Contact me with the number of horses and location, and I will provide a suitable proposal.
