There is also an introduction to basic husbandry of the animal, including holistic health care and acupressure exam; also how the diagnostic acupressure exam, when done correctly, resolves 80% of all training problems on the ground!
Upon completion of the course, participants will have a good understanding of how animal behavior affects health and healing, common disease processes which are effectively treated through alternative medicine, and an introduction to the use of acupuncture, herbs, and homeopathy. How to minimize injury to oneself and to the horse while delivering good quality health care. Also, an introduction to equine behavior and training in order to facilitate more desirable behaviors and a deeper bond between horse and human. Participants will learn why there is no such thing as good or bad behavior, and will begin to utilize the science of operant and classical conditioning to teach almost any animal (not just horses) to do almost anything!
