Applied Equine Zoopharmacognosy
Learn a new way to help your horse restore and maintain health through it's innate ability to detect medicinal constituents within plants. The Level 1 course aims to equip the participant with the knowledge and skill base of offering plant extracts according to presenting symptoms at a basic level. Level 2 builds on Level 1 going into more depth on such issues as working with 'triggers', trauma, the process, emergencies & first aid. |
Level 1
The participant will have the opportunity to learn which plant extracts to offer and the technique of offering plant extracts alongside recognising equine responses. This workshop aims to equip the attendee with the confidence to offer to animals in their care although is not a practitioner course. As well as a significant skill base to commence using the Applied Zoopharmacognosy approach, the participant will also be furnished with:
- Extensive reference notes including herbal compendium, extracts for conditions, record sheets
- Sample pack - subject to participant's location
- Access to the 'Members Only' site listing extracts to offer for specific conditions
- Certificate of attendance and completion
- Eligibility to attend Level 2 Equine Applied Zoopharmacognosy Workshop as well as ongoing CPD Level 1 workshops
" It was an amazing weekend! It went way beyond my expectations. Absolutely lovely group of women. Carly is an amazing teacher and facilitator of an empowering weekend for horses in the self-selection process. Empowering for all involved - humans and animals! The change in the horses and their unique selections was truly incredible. Highly recommended!"

Expanding your knowledge and experience |
Level 2 workshop encourages the participants to delve deeper into the nuances of Equine Applied Zoopharmacognosy. It very much builds on Level 1 in that we learn more of the processes and methodology enabling a successful outcome. Issues such as 'which extract to offer first', how to work with trauma and triggers as well as offering in emergencies are discussed and where possible practical experienced gained. In Level 2 students can expect to be far more 'hands on' than in Level 1 engaging with practicals on both days. Ideally, students will have had practice of using the extracts for a minimum of 6 months after having attended Level 1.

"I attended Carly's Equine Zoopharmacognosy workshop and can only recommend it. If you open and broaden your mind it will be an eye opener of what becomes possible if we give our horses a voice. You will learn a lot about different essential oils and plants and uses. Beyond the theory, it is all being put into practice with different horses to practice on and to see self-selection in action. Packed with information, very practical and also lots of fun!" Isabell
