Katie hawkins

As a Certified Equine Rehabilitation Therapist and FEI Permitted Equine Massage Therapist, Katie has worked with horses across a wide range of disciplines and competitive levels, including elite equine athletes. She is passionate about bridging the gap between veterinary medicine, rehabilitation, and performance, helping horse owners and professionals make informed decisions throughout the recovery process.

In partnership with Pinnacle Rehab Center in Fayetteville, Arkansas, Katie leads comprehensive rehabilitation programs that combine advanced technology, veterinary collaboration, and individualized care plans designed around each horse’s specific needs. She is also an educator, consultant, and speaker who provides training and mentorship to horse owners, rehabilitation professionals, and veterinarians throughout the industry.

Katie’s passion for rehabilitation was shaped not only by her experiences with horses but also by her own personal journey through injury and recovery. Having witnessed firsthand the impact that thoughtful, integrative care can have on both horses and people, she believes every horse deserves a customized path to healing. Her mission is simple: to help horses overcome setbacks, regain strength and confidence, and return to the careers they love.

When she isn’t working, Katie enjoys competing in the jumper ring, gardening at home and having fun with her family. Katie is also a proud wife to her husband, Greg. Together they have two daughters, Quinn and Baylor. A lifelong equestrian and competitor, Katie enjoys competing as an amateur rider and shows in the Adult Jumper divisions.
