Peppermint oil is a very versatile oil always worth having in the tack room. Not only is it often selected for digestive disorder such as Colic but also for inflammation and pain. Peppermint is extremely cooling and will take the heat and itchiness out of the skin when selected for topical application. CAUTION - do not apply to broken skin
​
Top tip!
When a horse is confined to box rest the resulting filling of the lower legs can be aided by Peppermint as it aids circulation when selected. Offer to apply topically with a diuretic such as Juniper Berry.

Also consider:
  • Plant extracts for Digestive disorders
  • Plant extracts for Inflammation
  • Plant extracts for Skin conditions
.Applied Zoopharmacognosy and offering plant extracts is not a substitute for veterinary care.
Consult your vet if you have any concerns for the welfare of an animal in your care
Always allow an animal to remove itself from an aroma and never put plant extracts in your animals feed
​ and always offer in a well-ventilated area
