Whitethorn Equine Health Ltd
based in Sligo Ireland, serves to address the growing need for a gentle yet effective solution to sickness and ill-health, working to resolve horse's emotional and physical issues. Our unique approach involves utilising the horse's desire to regain health through the innate ability to self-medicate using herbs, minerals and plant extracts. This process, termed Zoopharmacognosy, enables us to help an animal restore and maintain physical, emotional and mental health. Currently we are the only establishment offering this service and Carly is the only Ingraham Qualified Equine Zoopharmacognosist in Ireland.

There is nothing new about animals self-selecting the medicinal compounds present within herbs – it has always been an essential survival trait used by animals in the wild in order to maintain health. Domesticated animals have not lost this ability – just the opportunity! Your horse is already self-selecting every time it chooses between one plant in the field and another.

Whitethorn Equine Health in conjunction with Whitethorn Herbals (our online retail outlet) merely take this process one step further and provides your horse access to therapeutic plant extracts that it would normally seek if living wild. Being a natural instinctive approach intrusion is minimal with the animal only selecting and taking what it needs in order to restore health. |
