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,

Acupuncture for Downer syndrome in cows

The ascension of the cow story The cow is very sacred in India. In the western world it had become a factory animal until 2001 when in England millions of cows were put down due to ‘foot and mouth’ disease. At this time I was taking a group through the angel ascension process, a 12 week course. I was called upon to do acupuncture on a cow on a nearby property. This cow had ‘gone down’. This is what the farmers (called in Australia ‘cockies’) call this condition. It happens especially after birthing, the cow cannot get up off the ground. The ‘cockie’ attitude is, if it has been down for 3 days it won’t get up, so they shoot it, out of ‘mercy’, or ‘mercenary’. This is the story. It had already been 10 days when I first came. The lady was providing feed for her, and water. There was some contention amongst the local males as to what to do. I said ‘This cow is down because its spirit has gone down’. I had a feeling maybe this cow is doing this NDE, angel ascension process too

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

Treatment of abscess in horse with equine acupuncture

These points may be needled or moxaed. The result is very quick. 1-2 treatments will be needed. Q:  What is the reason for this to work? These points are a long way from an abscess. A: primarily abscess is caused by grief. When the tears cannot be released via the normal method they accumulate, then the toxin of the grief enters the blood and then travels down the leg trying to find a way out. Soon it is very painful. It may break out by itself externally or need help. The points above clear the toxin from the Blood and so disperse the abscess internally. Example; An owner came to me and said horse was lame. I suspected an abscess not yet ripened. i did these points. In morning she said,' I dont know if was the treatment or the Foot bath i gave it but horse is not lame now.' Another example from a beginning student; 6 year old mare with a history of foot abscesses showed up dead lame. very tender a back of heel on forelimb. Diagnosis of
