This Equine Herbal workshop may be attended either onsite or online (through Zoom) hosted at our Clinic in Sligo, Ireland. This life changing course will be your first solid step on the journey to acquiring a life-long skillset that will empower you to restore and maintain your horse’s health using herbs and essential oils. You will learn how to work with such issues as sprains, wounds, laminitis, hormonal imbalances etc. This course is hands on with practical sessions where participants can learn how to offer for issues that the everyday horse owner encounters. This workshop is a prerequisite for the Masterclass Level, the Equine Zoopharmacognosy Practitioner program and CPD's. See more details below plus what our students have to say about their experiences!

"Zoopharmacognosy interested me though I knew little about it. Carly is an expert in the field so I went to Whitethorn Farm in Sligo for a weekend of Level 1 coaching with her.
The calm and beauty of the countryside is magnificent as was the learning experience. Classroom and practical sessions with horses allowed us to start to understand how the essential oils, powders, clays herbs and more could be used.
About a year later I attended another weekend of Level 2 coaching. I, along with a few others attended on-line, whilst the majority were on site. The technical set up worked amazingly both in the classroom and in each horse's stable.
Level 2 goes deeper into the theory of zoopharmacognosy, and allows the participants to use their own ideas and suggestions when working with the horses.
Personally I love the fact that it is always the horse that choses. They are not held at all. Joining in is totally up to them.
Personally I have seen some very clear reactions and have had one owner say that without the oils she probably wouldn't still have her horse. I am just a real novice who is fascinated.To learn properly go to one of Carly's courses at Whitethorn Farm"
