Equine Health Management
Often health issues in modern sport horses are posture-related. Lamenesses and movement disorders are resulting from wrong or too less exercise. Colics, allergies, laminitis and COPD are caused either by feedstuff not tailored to need of the horse or not appropriate shelter. Often the problems are very basic - they just escaped our attention - and a change in small things would be a vast improvement. Modern science and soft manual therapies like osteopathy show up a diversity of therapeutic and prophylactic solutions.
About my clinic

Holistic treatment approach

Holistic treatment for horses has nothing to do with esotericism. Rather, it means that without keeping the horse as a whole in mind, I cannot make any reasonable medicine. Lameness results from many things, from the saddle to the shoeing to the riding style. Treating lameness only "skin deep" makes little sense. Allergies do not come from pollen, they have always existed, but are the result of a derailed immune system. And this has much more to do with nutrition than we can imagine.

The Gentle Way

My clinic combines the gentle osteopathic treatment and phytotherapy with modern but also gentle immunologic therapies.

Your farsightedness is your horse’s future

There's no point in crying over spilled milk. It is better not to spill it.

(Pflanzenheilkunde) Plant medicine is real medicine

Feb. 19, 2026 by

The time when herbal medicine (Pflanzenheilkunde) or phytotherapy, as it is scientifically known, was labelled as alternative medicine should finally be a thing of the past. It has nothing in common with homeopathy, bioenergetics, Bach flower therapy or other non-scientific
