Students will evaluate the whole horse and quickly determine cranial, cervical and entire body dysfunctions via the CranioSacral System. Students will learn which techniques will resolve specific issues. Students are taught to work with the core energy of the horse and how to feel the central base rhythm of the equine body.
In this 4-Day Clinic we build upon the Equine CranioSacral System & IET CST Techniques and explore into the deeper governing control over all aspects of the equine body.
We explore deeper melding techniques and students learn new and illuminating diagnostic skills that are both intuitive, and yet unequivocally verifiable.
It is extremely common for horses to have long-term debilitating movement, behavior, and metabolic problems from head trauma.

Advanced 3-Day Equine CranioSacral Therapy (EQCST 3)
Diaphragmatic Unwinding & Somato Emotional Release (SER)

Students focus on healing chronic physical ailments by addressing the deepest causation of those ailments — emotional constrictions. Horses are herd animals and when experiencing trauma, they store unresolved emotional pain in their bodies. The most profound healing, either physical or emotional, comes when one goes into an area of great pain, identifies the underlying emotions holding that pain, and then nudges it, allowing that pain to unwind and release.

In EQCST3, students work with the core energy of the horse, feeling the central base rhythm of the body. This method allows the student to meld deeply with the Equus. When melding at this level students are able to access the horse's deep-seated emotions that normally lie hidden, but are the main drivers of chronic lameness and behavioral problems. In this course, students will learn Somato Emotional Release (SER) techniques to unwind and release the primary causes in most acute and chronic conditions.
