About ZJ Equine Therapy

Hey there! I am Zena, the hands behind ZJ Equine Therapy.

Horses have been at the center of my life for as long as I can remember. I grew up in Northern California, where days were spent at the ranch and weekends were spent at the local barrel racing jackpots. Barrel racing taught me the value of hard work and caring for the horses that take care of us.

In 2023, I became a Certified Equine Sports Massage Therapist through an amazing program - Equissage. This turned a passion of mine into a profession.

After marrying my husband, I moved to San Diego and decided to continue ZJ Equine Therapy. When I’m not working with horses, you’ll usually find me performing country music, another passion of mine.

I started ZJ Equine Therapy because I believe our horses deserve more than our appreciation. They deserve our care. We ask so much from our horses, so the least we can do is make sure they feel good while doing it. That is the heart behind everything I do.
