Learn how to save your horse from colic, choke and more
It's a simple fact. Most of the time, you will need to handle your horse emergencies on your own until the vet arrives. But don't worry - I'll show you how not to panic by being confident and prepared to apply natural therapies alongside veterinary care.
Horse owners are often left confused and unprepared when it comes to dealing with emergencies. It's not always clear what the best course of action is for treating a sick or injured horse.
Even if you're prepared, it's likely that you'll be too nervous or overwhelmed to react effectively when the worst happens. You end up feeling like:
You love your horse. You do your best to look after your horse.
You know how SCARY it is when your horse get's colic or suffers an injury.
Especially when it's at night and it's hard to get hold of your vet.
You also like to take a holistic approach with your horse's health, that mirrors your own life.
You KNOW you could feel so much more confident when you know what to do in emergency situations like colic, wounds, choke or snakebite.
Imagine what it’s going to be like when…

I now feel a strong sense of confidence that I know what to do in an emergency
Maike's course has been fantastic and I would highly recommend it to anyone who owns horses no matter how much or how little experience you feel that you have in this area.
I have always agisted my horses and had plenty of people to help me if I had questions. Now that I have them at home and having never dealt with a serious emergency I felt a bit unsure of a few things. When is it an emergency? When do I need to call a vet? What information will my vet need? What can I do to help my horse whilst we wait? How can I support their healing and recovery afterwards? This course covered all of that and I now feel a strong sense of confidence that I know what to do in an emergency.
Maike has a very clear teaching style and is very knowledgeable about both conventional medicine and herbal medicine, homeopathy and acupressure. The teaching is self paced so you can follow along in your own time.
Now that I have my horses' vitals recorded, a fully stocked first aid kit and the knowledge of what to do in an emergency I am looking forward to learning more about the holistic aspects of looking after my horse's health.

Let Me Show You the Week-by-Week Breakdown inside the Holistic Equine First Aid Course
Module 1
Learn how to handle Emergencies before they happen
As a responsible horse owner you know you need to be prepared BEFORE a problem occurs with your horse.
In the beginning it's easy to feel overwhelmed with too much information. So in week one we'll cover step by step the information and practical steps you need to prepare for emergencies.
Module 2

In week two you will learn about easy to use natural remedies to keep in your horse's first aid kit. We'll discover the difference between natural and pharmaceutical medicine.
You'll be introduced to Traditional Chinese Veterinary Medicine (TCVM), acupressure, homeopathy, herbs and essential oils.
Module 3
Common Horse Emergencies

We'll cover how to respond and what to do step-by-step in common emergencies that horse owners face. For each situation you'll learn the important first aid steps to take and which natural remedies you can bring in to help.
Module 4
Manage Colic without fear
Colic is most horse owner's biggest fear. The entire week four is dedicated to colic - how to recognise it, how to assess your horse (how bad is it?) and what you can do to help your horse while waiting for your vet.
We'll also talk about what NOT to do to make the situation worse and importantly, what you can do to help prevent colic.

Your Best Insurance to Keep Your Horse Healthy is
KNOWLEDGE and being PREPARED
Horses are an expensive affair. It's easy to blow your budget just with the normal upkeep for your horse, let alone when a big vet bill hits you. And let's face it, horses seem to get colic or hurt themselves most commonly in the evening or on a weekend when your vet charges additional after-hours fees!
A vet bill to treat a colic starts at around $500 and very quickly creeps into the $1000s of dollars. One way you can reduce the risk of a big vet bill is by being able to identify a problem with your horse early and immediately taking steps to apply first aid and communicate with your vet. A colic for example has a much better chance for recovery before a horse develops complications such as dehydration and shock. Knowing what to do before you call your vet (if the situation requires one), while you wait and after your vet leaves are critical to reducing complications, helping your horse heal and saving money on vet bills!
Now of course you can find lots of information on the internet and in books about first aid for your horse. In fact, there's no shortage of information out there. The problem is, you'll find many different answers to the same question. Some advice is helpful, other advice can actually harm your horse.
It can also take hours to find the proper, relevant information. In an emergency, there's no time for that. You need to have the right information at your fingertips and importantly, you also need to have the right equipment stocked in your first aid kit and know how to use it. During a colic is not the best time to learn how to take your horse's heart rate!
You can take all that stress away by enrolling in the Holistic Equine First Aid Course.
This is a small investment when it comes to safeguarding your horse's health and your peace of mind. For less than the cost of a horse rug you can get started today to know exactly what to do in an emergency and confidently use natural therapies to help your horse.

Hey, I'm
Dr Maike Turnbull
BSc BVMS (Hons)
I'm a horse lover and veterinarian. It was always my dream to become a veterinarian to help keep horses happy and healthy. As a veterinarian, I love what modern medicine has to offer, but I also acknowledge the wisdom shared by natural based therapies. It's important to me to have a truly holistic approach to health and healing for horses.
I have been blessed with many animals in my life who taught me important lessons about the value of expanding my knowledge and tool box to include holistic therapies.
I love sharing my knowledge to empower and inspire horse owners to help their horses in simple and very effective ways.
