CranioSacral Therapy
Craniosacral therapy is a very safe and gentle manual therapy that works on the central nervous system and the connective tissue called “fascia.” The light touch technique is used to help stimulate the body’s own healing properties along with lessening the restrictions found in the nervous system. It works primarily on the central and autonomic nervous systems, and has been proven to help calm and re-balance these systems, especially in the horse.

Equine Aromatherapy
Equine Aromatherapy is the use of pure therapeutic grade essential oils and in some cases, Equine Raindrop Technique, to promote optimal emotional well-being, improve the horse’s skin, coat, hooves and aid recovery from injury, surgery, disease or the temporary relief of pain.
Equine Aromatherapy has proved beneficial to some common equine ailments such as skin allergies, respiratory problems, muscular and joint aches and pains and hoof hygiene.
Although Equine Aromatherapy should not be considered a miracle cure for serious emotional issues, the use of pure therapeutic essential oils may assist, with particular emotional issues and improve emotional balance.
The proper use of these oils may enhance a horses’ emotional outlook and provide support and emotional balance, during stressful and challenging times.
The use of essential oils for emotional well-being is what is often first thought of when referring to the term - Equine Aromatherapy.
Chloe has completed her Certificate of Equine Aromatherapy, specializing in the Raindrop Technique.

This increased circulation also allows for the faster removal of metabolic wastes. -

Nutrition Consultation
Chloe is available to perform nutrition consults by correspondence, or local farm visit.
Diet consults include a thorough overview of the horses's health, including any ailments or conditions. This includes reviewing your current feeding regime and providing an in-depth report on how to balance your current ration / assist with current conditions.
Diets are balanced according to the NRC requirements, aiming at levels being within an optimum range.
There are so many variables when it comes to feeding horses, and by using an independent nutrition consultant you're able to cover all bases and not rely on the results of a computer program, or the bias of 'free' diet analysis reports that will only ever recommend their own products.
