Conception, equine breeding programs, equine acupuncture

At the moment of conception there are two forces coming together. There is the physical and the  spirit.

The physical creation occurs with the union of the male and female parts from the mother and father.  The quality of the mother is important and the quality of the fathers contribution is also important at this stage.  At his point the Jing is formed. Also the health or otherwise of them at this point and their degree of ‘complementation” is important.


The aim is to limit inherited weak characteristics from being passed on, though these may be useful.


The spirit  has chosen which parents will suit its purpose of incarnating on the earth and begins the process of transforming what is there into what it needs. This is done by imprinting.

The role of imprinting.
Another force  that comes into play at the conception is external surroundings. All happenings and impressions at that time are imprinted.  Consciously or unconsciously. If they are unconscious then they will need to be transformed at some later stage for the spirit to take over the body fully.

for example; If parents are drunk at conception there is unconsciousness. If parents really want the child and plan for it then there is consciousness. 

The symbol for the pure conception for the horse is the unicorn horn. In the wild this can occur more often. Sometimes on a horse you can see reminders of this in the forehead area.

The symbol in the western Christianity was the immaculate conception of Jesus. Noone is saying that it really happened but it is a symbol for the ideal.

Imo  AI is  a very cold process so a chill at this time will be occurring. Warmth will be needed at later stages to shift this. eg moxa at GV4.

Inherited tendencies can be limited by using Ki9 regularly after the 18th week. I suggest moxa here .

help can be given to the embryo and mare in the phases mentioned here in this order.

Each month corresponds to a channel, in the following order: Liver, GB, PC, Triple Burner, SP, ST, LU, LI, KD, UB, SI, HT." When the month is nourished by that channel, you don't needle it. i.e. in the first month, the fetus is nourished by the Liver, so it is not to be needled, and so on. But can be augmented say with herbs or foods.

Splint examples; treatment with acupuncture

Case e xample ; Splint ( bone spur);   Chaos 8 year old eventing horse has had this bone spur since age 1 the photos are dated 5 weeks of treatments. Shrinking the area with each treatment, lasting about 5 to 7 days. The spur was about the size of a walnut and now it is the size of a raisin.  more on Splints from Amanda ONiell; For a new forming splint Bandage 24hr x month. Ice under bandage 3x a day for 3-5 days. Then keep bandaged 24/7 for a month( compression). This helps to keep the splint bone stable, in turn helps it recover. ( always bandage from the chest s ide of the leg out wards. If you don't it will injure the tendons by twisting them the wrong way. Hires needs to be in a small space as excess running doesn't help. I needled Baihui and ting points in line with the lump. Lu6 ( to help with foreleg pain)Lu9( to help resolve Phlegm) Lu11.  for more ; go to www.horse-acupuncture.com

Horse Hypnosis

This is very interesting to see. Acupuncture is a form of healing and as such involves altered states. The subject is relaxed and taken into a state, different from the normal state, where the healing takes place. This is not the way or subject of Medicine, nor is this the aim of the Acupuncture Method. It is a side-effect. Many, many times in giving a horse acupuncture, persons and animals around will also go to sleep. And in one way this is a blessing as, in any one family, all are affected if any one member of the family is affected, especially in regard to animals. They tend to take on , in their kindness and compassion, the symptoms of the owner. This is called Surrogating. I always say, I treat a horse and a rider for free. Fix the rider and the horse feels much better. This surrogating must always be looked into in treatment. If the rider walks with a right hand limp then the horse will end up with right hand symptoms Always look for the cause. To do hypnosis. After acupuncture...

How to get your horse’s hoofs to grow evenly.

--> Note these points are not underneath the hoof but on the top surface; The horse has acupuncture channels which run down the leg. These all end near the coronet band on areas called ting points. If the energy in a channel is weak or blocked it does not allow the chi and blood to move fully down into the hoof.   And then that section of the hoof does not get fully nourished with blood and so does not grow so well. This gives rise to hoof imbalances. For example; sometimes the toe on the back grows too long.(this gives rise to forging or overreach.) Actually it is the heel that grows to short. If you stimulate the ting points on the back of the heel by one off acupuncture or regular acupressure or laser the hoof will grow regularly back and front.  Anohter good tip is to look for hoof cracks. These definaitely start happening when the chi in the channel is weak and not strong enough to push the blood into the hoof for growth in that area,  ...
