What are some natural therapy remedies for horse colic?
• Reiki (energy work) can be offered to your horse by placing your hands on or near their stomach. If your horse moves away at any time, offer reiki from a distance as they are sensitive to the energy and the discomfort from the colic can make them more so. See reiki for horses link for more information. • Acupressure can be offered for colic relief. Dr. Dodd has a chart that shows the 3 acupressure points. If your horse has colicked several times, you need to look at the overall care you are giving your horse – nutrition, exercise, deworming and vaccination program (deworming and vaccinations can cause colic in some horses), and any possible stress. You need to see if you are possibly doing something unintentionally with your horse that is contributing to the colic. You may even find that you are doing something with your own life that is contributing to your horse’s situation as animals are very sensitive to what goes on in our own lives, sometimes even mirroring our health problems
