Therapies: Equine Touch

I have completed stages 1 and 2 of the Equine Touch qualification and am studying stage 3 at which point I will be a fully qualified Equine Touch practitioner.

Background

Equine Touch has been described by leading Equine vets as the ultimate hands-on therapy for horses – Jock Ruddock

Equine Touch is a non-diagnostic, non-invasive energy and muscle release discipline that works at a complete, holistic level; in other words it addresses the equine as a whole – Lyn Palmer, UK Instructor.

Equine Touch is perhaps best looked upon as an holistic equine training ‘discipline’. The gentle non-invasive procedures re-educate the equine body to re-balance from a cellular level, encouraging the horse toward the ideal state of homeostasis, wherein any problem can be addressed on all levels.

Recent research has led us to believe that the Equine Touch works through the intelligence network of the body, the fascia. However, it also appears in places to work via the golgi receptors, the spindle cells, trigger point release mechanisms, acupuncture points, meridians, neuromuscular receptors and to directly address the lymphatic system.
