Sports equine massage and pet horse massage, difference?

I am interested in pursuing equine massage. I’ve seen many training programs offering training on sports massage for high quality horses, but I want to know if that kind of certification or training is also good for providing services to those with pet or pleasure horses? Or is sports massage different from maybe another type of massage you’d give a pleasure horse?

It is really the same. You have to check to see if you need to be licensed as a massage therapist first in your state. Some places are creating regulations for animal massage therapists because there were cases of people with no training working on them and hurting them.
