In Jordan’s words
“I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is wanting to understand their horses on a deeper level.”
— Jordan
This is Jordan’s personal account of observations following a session. The reported behavioural and physical changes are individual observations, rather than clinically verified treatment outcomes. Medical concerns and changes in an animal’s condition should be assessed by a veterinarian.
At first I was completely skeptical on the biofeedback. The analysis made sense. I was completely floored when [the practitioner] did a blind test on a Thoroughbred I’m helping the owners with. She only had his name and date of birth.
What she was able to find on the analysis was spot-on accurate, leading into things I wasn’t even aware of. She was able to find out so much about his emotional state that made complete sense, having known this horse for eight years.
When it came down to doing treatment on him, I was admittedly very unsure, given that this would be done away from the horse and not with or on him physically. I couldn’t wrap my head around this.
I was rendered completely speechless and shocked when this horse went from impossible to lunge the day before his first treatment to a complete angel and saint after the treatment. The difference was night and day.
From spinning around in the lunge, not wanting to work on one side, fidgety in his halter, rearing, bucking, and incessantly rolling while trying to lunge, to a horse you would think is a school pony if you saw him after the therapy. He was calm, listening, and willing to work without a fuss.
Another thing I was not expecting was to see this cranial swelling start to subside. Due to a drip that had caused an abscess in his jugular vein during a bad colic, he had developed a swelling around his TMJ that never went down. His jugular vein on his left side had completely collapsed with no hope of recovering.
Due to the swelling and its location, it has made it very difficult to find a way for this horse to work comfortably. In the week after the session, I saw the swelling go down a little bit every day till it was nearly gone.
To say this experience opened my eyes to the biofeedback is an understatement. I would definitely recommend this to anyone who is wanting to understand their horses on a deeper level and help their horse at the same time.
I’ve heard so many positive things from other people who swear by it, and after seeing the difference in my client’s horse, I am making arrangements to have my own horses done and possibly treated based on his results.
A ten out of ten recommendation for behavioral or emotional issues that people are battling with in their animals.
