OUR PIONEERING HAIR TESTING

We treat the whole Horse – not just the symptoms!

Hair Testing, Hair Analysis or Hair Assessment are such blanket terms, and cover a wide range of services. This causes much confusion for horse owners and trainers.  Our service is very different from chemical hair testing or mass spectrometry.  

The Horse Herbalist’s Founder, Angela Davison, pioneered a unique Hair Assessment system (also called Hair Testing) which she integrated into her practice in 1998.  This is a non chemical method of discovery which aims to reveal the core issues in the individual horse’s performance problems/illness/discomfort/imbalance.

Once those core issues have been revealed and understood, a focused treatment plan is proposed. A tailor made Medical Herbal and Flower Remedy Mixture is created for your horse which will facilitate a positive and permanent healing change within the body/mind continuum, rather than putting a band-aid on the problem.

Individual Treatment Plans are a critical path to excavating old issues, creating holistic routes to wellness and ease of movement and being.

 

Our Service is Very different – Accept no imitations!

 

A Unique, Bespoke, Horse Hair Assessment System:

This unique testing system covers your horse’s organs, body systems, musculo/skeletal system and joints.  We discover how your horse rates his or her feeds & supplements (what works with one horse doesn’t necessarily suit another’s gastro-intestinal tract – this has proven to be invaluable information for the owner/trainer).  Testing includes how your horse rates their physical energy, mental and emotional energy, environment, rider, discipline and more . . . Angela will give you a full spectrum of information giving deep insight into your horse.

We prefer that clients opt for the full 15 week treatment programme to ensure that we dig deep into the root causes of issues/problems and fix them for good.  But we understand that budgetary constraints are real and you may want to ‘suck it and see’.

Remember our aim is always to facilitate a positive and permanent healing change.

By the end of the programme 80% of horses will be balanced and happy and we expect them to keep improving once the Herb/Flower Remedy treatment is finished.  The possible exceptions are horses with joint/connective tissue injuries or nervous system issues – they may take a little longer.

Nutritional changes may be recommended and other therapies suggested in conjunction with or after this treatment programme ie Veterinary, Bodywork, Dentist, Farrier, Acupuncture, Chiropractor etc.

The shorter programmes provide a pathway for you & your horse to test the efficacy of the programme.  We are confident that you will be happy with the extraordinary results we achieve time after time.  Most of our clients remain with us through their lives!

When sending hair for testing, please collect a good switch of hair (ideally from the mane).  At least 1cm thick either pulled out or cut close to the skin.  Hogged mane horses send enough hair to cover a 20c piece.

Take the envelope with you to the horse and drop the hair immediately into the envelope and seal (no plastic bags please).  It is helpful to label the envelope with the horse’s name before taking the hair sample.

Please fill out this form which must accompany the hair, together with a copy of your payment receipt:

Managing Cushings

Cushing’s Syndrome was diagnosed with my 13 year old dog Betty, in early 2018. Although I have total faith in my diagnosing vets, I was reluctant to have Betty on life-long drugs with significant side effects, combined with regular invasive blood testings to monitor her condition. I chose instead to have Angela offer a herbal alternative. We commenced this is February 2018. It is now end August 2018 and Betty is, with regular exercise, controlled diet and Angela’s herbal supplement, a much better old dog. This has been evidenced by a decrease in Betty’s previous excessive thirst and urination, pot-bellied abdomen and anxiety – all of which are symptoms of Cushing’s Syndrome. I would like to thank, and acknowledge Angela for her herbal support, and Julie, who has assisted with Betty’s treatment.

What They're Saying

In 2005 I contacted A.D after "Kohl" was diagnosed with a serious respiratory Infection. 17 years later, I still believe it was the best decision I'd ever made. The difference A.D made with Kohl was unbelievable. I highly recommend A.D testing and treatments to anyone. As our results over the years on many horse's has spoken for themselves. Thank you A.D for your amazing service over all these years especially with Kohl! Kohl was retired from competition at the age of 23 still sound and healthy.

Just wonderful natural Homeopathics

A couple of weeks ago Babette, my 12 year old goat, was head butted and slammed into the ground by my bigger goat and could not stand. It looked liked it was the end for her as she wasn’t trying to get up at all. But was still eating.  Angela suggested to use a few of her magic herbs and homeopathics to try firstly, which helped a lot.   She then did a quick hair assessment on her and made a miracle potion for my sweet goat. We also massaged her legs and encouraged her to move.  After a few days on her potion she was shuffling around and much brighter. After a week she was getting around on her knees, then hobbling on wonky legs. NOW after 2 weeks she is walking on her own.  Bright and cheeky back to her old self. Eating huge amounts, cause she can. Loving the herbal mixture too. To see her progress over such a short time was absolutely amazing.  No harsh drugs involved.  Just wonderful natural Homeopathics abd Herbs from mother nature. And of course Angela’s amazing brain and knowledge was invaluable to Babette’s recovery. I feel so blessed and humbled by Angela Davison whom I owe so much to over the years of her caring for my animal family.
