Review

"Catherine Bird discusses such therapies in conjunction with traditional treatments. The well-indexed book includes a glossary and additional resources."--Western Horseman


"Overall, detailed how-to and why-for information make this book a sensible addition to any horse owner's library."--The Gaited Horse

From the Back Cover

Just as more and more people are embracing a more natural approach to their health and wellbeing, many horse owners are turning to ways they can use natural therapies with their horses. A Healthy Horse the Natural Way is the complete complementary approach to horse health, covering: herbs, massage, aromatherapy, homeopath, Bach flower remedies, biochemic tissue salts, vibrational healing/energy fields and perhaps, most importantly, how and when to use a combination of these therapies and when to use them in conjunction with veterinary treatment. This practical handbook will add new dimensions to your horse's health and sense of well-being, and help you develop an increasingly harmonious relationship with your horse. (7 x 9 1/4, 240 pages, b&w photos, illustrations)Catherine Bird has led the development of equine natural therapies in Australia and is in worldwide demand as a practitioner, lecturer, and teacher. Her extensive experience is founded on many years of working with dressage, jumping, eventing, endurance, pony club, and international-level competition horses, old companion horses, and thoroughbred horses from newborn foals to all stages of track racing, mounted police horses, and balloted mounts at the 2000 Paralympic games. She is a regular contributor to magazines and lives in Australia.

This review is from: A Healthy Horse the Natural Way: A Horse Owner's Guide to Using Herbs, Massage, Homeotherapy, and Other Natural Therapies (Hardcover)
I had been looking for along time for a book that addressed exactly how to use herbal remedies for horses. I could find alot of info on herbs and their medicinal properties , but no info on the dosage for a horse. This book offers clear info and so much more. One of the best resourse books I have ever owned!

This review is from: A Healthy Horse the Natural Way: A Horse Owner's Guide to Using Herbs, Massage, Homeotherapy, and Other Natural Therapies (Hardcover)
This book and it's contents are truly a gift from Catherine. It has so much helpful information to help horse owners in keeping their horse not only healthy, but happy also.

It covers a variety of modalities, and I use it very frequently whenever any question or concern arises. The information is presented in a very readable format, not medical-ese, but in a manner in which we all can understand, even without a veterinary background.
