I'm finding that the RDA (Riding for the Disabled Association) ponies are often twisted throughout their bodies, which is a reflection of the enormous amount of work that they have to do in balancing an unbalanced disabled rider. And unlike a horse who generally just has one able-bodied rider, and when realigned after a treatment, will then be ridden by this balanced rider, the RDA ponies are continually having to complete this balancing act every time they are ridden. This is why continuous ongoing treatment for these ponies is crucial to keep them comfortable, safe and happy. 😊

Mouse enjoyed his treatment; his eye is soft whilst he processes the shifts and changes occurring in his body.

The other cheeky chappy didn't get a treatment this time, but crept up behind me twice, once whilst I was talking to the head groom and then when I was writing up my documentation, in order to "tune in" and get a bit of free positive energy!

It can be quite stressful for a youngster when they are moved from the home where they have been a foal, maybe having been weaned early, maybe having been moved several times, maybe having crossed the sea from Ireland or from Holland.......before they reach you.

This bundle of nervous energy finally found space to relax and process the shifts going on in his body after his first treatment today. The first time ever that he had lain down in the stable with people in the stable with him, his head slowly drooped lower and lower until his muzzle was resting on the straw.

This was beautiful to see, as 45 minutes previously he had been full of nervous energy and wary of any of my intentions. After his treatment I now hope and anticipate that his stress and anxiety will begin to dissipate, and that with the continued careful handling of his new owner he will be able to find peace in his mind and his body and then be able to fulfil his potential as a show jumper.

After treating these 2 lovelies, 3 others were flat out in the stable enjoying the peaceful vibes! I love it when this happens and other horses tune in to the energy being held, relax and start their own processing. 🫠

The power of energy work! I was treating a horse this morning and had another lady just watching but who also worked energetically. When I had finished the treatment it was clear that all the other horses in the stable had also picked up on the energy created and held within the session and were all in some state of deep relaxation!

I was working at the RDA (Riding for the Disabled Association) at Clwyd Special Riding Centre and these horses are soooo appreciative of the treatments they are receiving, and clearly not just the one I was actually working with!!

Yesterday I was back at the Clwyd Special Riding Centre providing some special care for two of their ponies that were out of work. This one had been lame on one of his hind legs for a couple of weeks, but the main issue was not the pelvis, the SI joint or the stifles, all of which required treating, but misalignments in the hyoid bone and the lower jaw. This pony, normally a little anxious, was seriously chilled after completing the treatment! 🫠

The endurance season has started! This youngster was out on his first endurance ride a few days after his treatment. He had a tendency to drag his hind legs which was reflected in a build up of tension in his pelvis and jaw. He looked much more relaxed by the end of the treatment and his owner sent me this after the ride: "He was FANTASTIC at the endurance ride." That was so lovely to hear! 🤩

Even slight adjustments can make an enormous difference to your horses' performance, be that endurance riding, dressage, show-jumping or eventing. And even better if they are regularly checked over during the competition season to help prevent small issues developing into bigger problems.

The RDA (Riding for the Disabled Association) ponies work in a walk, but they are having to continuously balance a wobbly unbalanced rider. This is then reflected in their own bodies over a longer period of time, potentially causing misalignments, stiffness, tension, stress and pain. Regular treatments, gently helping them to relax and rebalance, can be extremely beneficial.

This lovely chap, a pony used for the RDA at Clwyd Special Riding Centre, thoroughly enjoyed and benefited from his treatment today. I was teaching a few of the basic orthobionomy techniques to one of the volunteers there, so that she would then be able to help keep the horses balanced on a regular basis in the future. The grooms were also extremely interested, so I'm looking forward to returning in a few weeks to teach them these basic techniques too. 😊 The team will then be able to help keep these ponies balanced on a regular basis and thus help prevent misalignments and tensions building up and causing injuries. Of course, I'll be there to help if any pony needs a bit more of a helping hand.

In Ortho-Bionomy phase 7 is where we consciously work together with the universal energy. This is purely mental work, so hands-off, and can be an incredibly powerful way to be able to work.

Recently the topic "What is phase 7 to you?" was discussed as part of an international discussion group within the Ortho-Bionomy community, where every few months each of us will create a short video about the topic given.

I describe in this video the reactions I have seen with horses and how they are quite capable of contacting the universal energy themselves without any interaction from me, in order to continue to work with their self-healing process. I feel the interactions within their body in my own body but I am giving them no input at this point. I am not DOing anything but just BEing there for them, holding the safe space. This is what phase 7 means to me.

You'll find the video on my YouTube channel: https://youtu.be/-FzVLsvlNaI

The body remembers! This lovely older lady was booked in for a wellness treatment more than anything else, but after having helped to release the stiffness in her body and down 3 of her legs, the fourth leg felt very different. I could feel a build-up of tension and a twist in the fascia. On mentioning this to the owner, she said that the horse had had a ruptured tendon seven years previously.

The body remembers the traumas and injuries it has had in the past and even many years later, inner scars and tension can be detected and then released by a good bodyworker.
