The best thing about this approach to trimming is that it is truly "wholistic" (We know, it’s the wrong spelling but keep reading). “Wholistic” meaning that we are taking into account the "whole” horse when we trim. The horse’s diet, environment, background and confirmation are all important aspects that influence the condition of the hooves. We are not simply looking at the appearance of the hooves; we are interpreting what they tell us. No hoof pathology is beyond the benefits of the Natural Trim Methodology. Horses that were once debilitated by a life of pain and lameness are restored back to good health and soundness.
Imbalances, cracks, flares, white line separation, etc. They are all indicators of what is going on inside the horse and can alert us to conditions that may need to be addressed. So rather than letting our horses get to a point of constant pain and suffering, we can utilize the Natural Trim Methodology to help prevent problems like founder and navicular syndrome simply because it allows us to see if the signs and symptoms of these deadly ailments are present in the hooves long before the horse “suddenly” goes lame with pain.

Flower Essences are herbal infusions that stimulate positive qualities within our nature. All flower essences do the same thing - they restore us to a state of balance. This occurs when the energy of the flower essence creates a vibrational resonance which gently stimulates our internal, intelligent life force allowing the body to heal itself. The essence line used is the "Spirit-in-Nature Essences".

I have a feeling there may be quite a few horse owners out there, especially those new to owning a Gelding, who may not be aware of some of the "100 mile tune-ups" our horses may need. One such yearly tune-up is cleaning the sheath and checking for and removing "beans”…

Here in the North East, thrush is an ever present issue for the health and soundness of our horses. Have you watched how your horse moves lately? The correct and healthy stride of a horse is to land on their heels and roll the foot forward toward the toe. If your horse is NOT landing on their heels but appears to be landing on their toes you’ve got trouble. Avoidance of a heel-first landing is a big red flag that your horse has sensitivity in the back of their hoof. Landing on their toe (except when walking up a hill) is a completely abnormal gait and basically translates to the avoidance of pain. Here in the tri-state area, the first, and most common cause of a toe-first landing is thrush. If your horse has thrush then you need our help.
