Achieving optimum results
 

• Purchase of relevant extracts for use during the session in a prerequisite from our sister shop www.whitethornherbals.com *see below
• The session is recorded for later viewing
• Selections and responses are recorded by Carly and a report sent out within 48hrs of the session
• The fee also include a follow up call at a mutually agreed time to assess progress and ongoing selections and answer any queries you may have

*Please note
Some clients may already have herbs and oils purchased from other sources that they may wish to use for a session. Regrettably we are unable to work with these unless they come from a recognised verifed Zoopharmacognosy specialist supplier. This is due to the fact that many products on the market commonly contain additives, fillers, preservatives and pesticide residue. When offering to equines/canines during a session it is imperative that the products used such as the ones we supply are of the highest standard and correct chemotype to ensure efficacy and more importantly safety. Thank you for your understanding.
