essential oils
Aromatherapy, also called Essential Oil Therapy, is the use of essential oils to promote optimal health and aid in recovery from disease. Essential oils offer a natural choice of relief for many common physical and behavioural problems in animals, such as allergies, arthritis, digestive disorders, laminitis, muscular strains, tendon and ligament sprains, respiratory infections, sarcoids, stress-related disorders, viruses and wounds.
Essential oils are an effective and gentle answer to many of today’s common equine health problems and although not an alternative to proper veterinary care, they can often bring relief where allopathic medicines hold no answer. Chronic skin problems, allergies, arthritis, Cushing’s Syndrome, stress related conditions and behavioural problems are just a few of the conditions that respond to essential oils. A horse’s sense of smell is much more advanced than that of a human and is strongly linked to their behavior. Essential oils are highly concentrated and haven proven to be significantly effective for helping horses. Their antibacterial, antiviral, and anti-inflammatory properties can help a number of ailments. Lavender in particular can help alleviate high levels of stress or anxiety in your horse.
