We offer a professional hair analysis test for Equines, we can test your horse/ponies hair for imbalances and deficiencies. The results can either be posted out to you in a report folder or emailed for quickness directly to you or delivered in person.

Hair analysis will give you a good starting point, how many of you horse owners know perhaps your horse has arthritis, but, would you know exactly what supplement would be best suited to your horse?

 i.e does he need msm and glucosamine, or glucosamine only or perhaps even devils claw to help with his arithric joints?? Now should we use dried herbs or liquid? 

It can be a mine field going to the local tack shop!  Is the most expensive supplement the best? Out of all the joint supplements which one do I choose? Help!!!

Hair analysis will not only save you time and money but will help provide you with the knowledge to help re-balance your horse, which in turn will help his recovery time!

What Will Your Report Show Me?

Your report will firstly give you a rating for your horses physical, emotional, mental and spiritual energy. This is normally rated out of ten, with 0 being the lowest and 10 being perfectly balanced. These ratings are actually very important as it will show you firstly what area you need to concentrate to start putting your horse back into balance.

Why Do I Need To Know This?

The holistic approach is looking at the horse/dog/person as a whole, physically, emotional, mentally and spiritually. As Plato once quoted "The cure of the part should not be attempted without treatment of the whole. No attempt should be made to cure the body with out the soul. Let no one persuade you to cure the head until he has first given you his soul to be cured, for this is the great error of our day, that physicians first separate the soul from the body"    - Plato

The above is also related to horses and dogs and cats! 

So firstly the report will identify where the horse/pony is mainly out of balance as the highest figure will donate whether it is physically (which would be looking at a vitamin/mineral defiency, toxins within the body, etc etc) or emotionally/mentally (where we would look at addressing the horse or ponies emotional/mental problems by way of prescription flower essences) we do not just use one particular essence manufacturer we will supply a unique flower essence blend for your horses requirements which will also include a report, when your horse/pony takes these essences it will help release any emotional/mental problems that are causing an imbalance in the body.

The report will also list current deficiencies, if any in vitamins, minerals, aminos, fatty acids, probiotic balance.

i.e. vitamin c, many older horses are deficient in vitamin C, but would we know it?

Will Your Report Tell Me What I Need To Help Balance My Horse/Pony?  
 
Yes our therapist and her company have sourced and personally tried and tested products that are recommended, they are all natural with no additives or fillers! Of course you are under no obligation whatsoever to purchase these but hand on heart we know they will do what they say on the packaging!! if you choose to use your own choice/brand of vitamin supplements etc that is perfectly understandable we are just passionate to provide a service to you the horse owner to be able to help your horse/pony in a more beneficial and more cost effective way.

How  Do you do the test?
We would collect a small amount of hair from the either your horses mane or tail, about 1/2" of about 7/8 strands.

We will then Place the hair into an sealed plastic bag and attach the horses name on the outside your contact details, name and address/telephone/email details and your preferred method of delivery, i.e. by email or post or in person.

How Long Does It Take?

We normally ask to allow up to 14 days, from us collecting the hair, however if you need a report urgently please tell us at the time of collection so we can try to arrange this for you.

The use of magnets to relieve pain has been practised for over 2000 years. Now, with the benefits of modern materials and technology magnets can be made very small, unobtrusive and powerful – ideal for animal therapy.

Studies have shown that this natural, non-invasive therapy relives pain and helps promote the body’s natural healing process by improving blood flow and therefore oxygen to injured areas.

Magnetic therapy is a complementary way to enhance the relief of pain. The magnets themselves do not heal –they create an environment in the body that helps speed up the natural healing provess by removing inflammation and restoring circulation. It is believed this is achieved when the blood stream and nerves are stimulated as the blood plasses through the magnetic field.

Here is an article from Horse and Hound magazine in 2007.

"Expert advice from HORSE magazine on how magnotherapy works and when to use it

Q. I am looking for information on treating horses with magnets. Could you tell me how they work and what type of conditions they can be applied to?

Caroline Vie, Surrey

A. Magnets have been used in medicine for thousands of years. Nowadays they can trat non-union fractures, contusions, degenerative bone conditions, delayed wound healing, acute and chronic injury to bone and soft tissue, such as bowed tendons, stretched ligaments and diseases of the back and lumbar regions, as well as helping stiff horses.

There are two major types – the bipolar magnet and pulsating electromagnetic field (PEMF) systems.
