My Horses

I would like to introduce you to my beautiful herd of horses, past and present.

I keep them in the most natural way I can provide – they all live together in a barn – and can roam free, seeking shelter or grazing in the fields when they choose.

They are allowed to develop their own personalities and hierarchy and are free to interact with each as they please. They get regular osteopathy, Bowens, homeopathy and Shiatsu treatment apart from the regular vet, trimmer and dentist checks. I treat all of them with what they need rather than adhering to only natural horsemanship or more conventional treatment.

I fit into the herd as their provider only making decisions which they can’t make for themselves and using my skills as a KI Aikido (Martial Art) student to lead them without forcing them or clashing with them. I don’t always succeed but I try my best.

They teach me as I am teach them and my learning with them will continue for however long I have the pleasure of them being me.

  • Elegant horse in therapy arena, demonstrating equine-assisted therapy for holistic healing.
    Phil was my soulmate, the leader of the herd and the most humbling beautiful being I had the honour of looking after. He passed when he was 28 years old but his presence is still felt with the others

    Aragon behind Phil was a 30 year of Warmblood I rescued - he was with us for 2 years until he passed peacefully in his sleep. The herd especially Phil helped me look after him in his old age

  • Elegant horse in black and white, focusing on relaxation and equine therapy.
    I got Colin over 24 years ago from a competition yard. It took him a while to realise that he can just be himself with the herd and nobody wants anything from him. He would only engage with clients when they are fully in their body but instantly knew just when they needed him just standing there with them

  • A heartwarming image of a miniature horse and pony together at Equinox Therapy, showcasing equine-assisted therapy benefits.
    Ed the big Chestnut fell asleep in the field when he was 25 years old. We all miss this gentle giant who was so loving and playful. Stanley 3 year old very small pony loved Ed and they played often.

  • A horse inside a stable with wooden wall background, showcasing wellness and therapy services.
    Despite his horrible background Ernie loved people - became best friends with Ed. His Asthma and feet problems became too much - he could not be a "horse" anymore and we lost him 1 year ago. Ernie could open your hearts very easily

  • Black and white photo of two elegant horses in a stable, symbolising equine therapy and wellbeing.
    Sandra (front) Luna (behind) were 2 beautiful rescue Mares from Andalusia. Luna taught the others about grace and dignity and Sandra about what it is like to be a free sprit. They passed 3 and 4 years ago. Their female energy is very much missed but still felt with all of us
