Want to learn how to work on your horse yourself?

Holistic horseworks was founded by April Battles. She took aspects from different modalities that she found worked well together and combined them into a practice that restores balance to the horse.

I am a Holistic Horseworks practitioner and certified instructor. We have on offer three courses for people who want to learn more.

LEVEL 1
Equine Musculoskeletal Unwinding

Equine Musculoskeletal Unwinding is all soft work but very effective in correcting gait abnormalities, saddle fitting issues and mysterious lameness issues. It also helps the horse to get more wind and thus more stamina as the body can take in more oxygen, as well as having more drive and push from the hind end. Soft gentle moves to manually release and keep the skeleton in proper form and function is where we start thus helping the body to load the joints and hoof correctly. Deep muscle unwinding from the inside out has the horse presenting a body 2″ taller, 4″ longer and they look as if they have gained 20 pounds after a 1 hour session. It also helps to balance Chakras and Acupressure Meridians.

The key is to release the 1st rib which is out in most foals by age 7 months. This creates the high/low syndrome in front hooves. Most professional modalities do not address these issues so then you are always working on the ‘symptom’ and not the cause which is why the chiropractic issues keep returning.

LEVEL 1

Equine Musculoskeletal Unwinding

LEVEL 2

Advanced Applied Kinesiology and Cranial Sacral Unwinding

LEVEL 2
Advanced Applied Kinesiology and Cranial Sacral Unwinding

In this class we go deeper to release the inner core muscles and Fascia all over the body. This Fascia releasing also helps the Organs to relax and glide internally as they should. This helps the acupressure meridians come back into balance as well.

The advanced muscle testing kinesiology is about what a specific area needs to be able to heal and for what period. Then what does the body need to come back to whole health wellness and full potential? Is anything else needed? For how long? Using these methods many horses labelled ‘unfixable’ have come back to healthy sound happy lives. Cranial bones are addressed as well as the students receiving and giving a cranial unwinding session, to feel in their body what we are giving to the beloved Equines we work on.

Many horses with Uveitis, Kissing Spine, Wobblers syndrome and String-halt  have been helped in our 3 day workshops and private appointments. Contact marisa@magichandshorseworks.com.au to inquire about private sessions.

LEVEL 3

Cranial Decompression

Thank you Marisa for the wonderful way you have with horses. All my horses love you. Your skill and knowledge is quite vast. Not only in the technique you use to treat the horses, but also your knowledge about training and reading horses. You have great intuition with these beautiful animals, and they can sense it. My horses have all improved since you have been treating them. Even the farrier has mentioned how much better their feet are since you’ve been re balancing their bodies. Thank you once again and am looking forward to more visits…well, my horses certainly are!
