Consultations

Elesebeth will listen to any concerns you have regarding your horses health or general wellbeing both before the session and on arrival. She will also use her accumulated knowledge of the equine world to make further observations of your horse to put forward botanicals for your horse to select from.

You will be apart of the process, offering remedies to your horse, watching their responses and learning about their selections. Elesebeth will guide you how to continue with remedies on an ongoing basis after the session. You will receive a report detailing chosen remedies and reasons they are commonly selected, as well as any further guidance you may need.

You do not have to have a 'problem' to book a session. Remedies support the body as well as potentially preventing any underlying wellbeing problems - including balancing emotional health. Sessions are a beautiful way to bond and communicate with your horse.
