Helping Horses Thrive Through Prevention, Balance, and Root-Cause Wellness
Healthy horses don’t happen by chance—they thrive when every aspect of their health is understood and supported.
At Wholistic Health Care, I believe that true wellness goes beyond treating disease. By looking at the whole horse—including nutrition, metabolism, mineral balance, lifestyle, stress, movement, and environment—we can identify imbalances early and create individualized wellness strategies that support lifelong health.
Whether your horse has already been diagnosed with Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS), insulin dysregulation, or laminitis, or you simply want to reduce future risk, my goal is to provide practical, evidence-informed guidance that complements your veterinarian’s care and empowers you to make informed decisions for your horse.
My Wholistic Philosophy
A Different Way of Looking at Health
Symptoms are not random — they are messengers of a deeper underlying problem.
Rather than suppressing them, I take the time to understand what your body is communicating.
Every horse is unique.
Rather than focusing on one symptom or one diagnosis, I take time to understand the complete picture.
This includes evaluating:
- Medical history
- Feeding program
- Hay and forage quality
- Mineral balance
- Body condition and fat distribution
- Exercise and movement
- Hoof history
- Lifestyle and management
- Stressors and environmental influences
- Previous injuries or trauma
- Current supplements
- Laboratory results (when available)
By bringing all of these pieces together, we can identify patterns that may contribute to metabolic dysfunction and develop a personalized wellness strategy.
What Your Assessment Includes
Each consultation is individualized and may include:
✓ Comprehensive health history

My practice focuses on supporting horses through:
Equine Metabolic Syndrome (EMS)
Helping reduce insulin dysregulation through nutrition, management, and proactive wellness planning.
Laminitis Prevention
Identifying risk factors before painful episodes occur and developing strategies to support long-term hoof health.
Nutritional Wellness
Creating practical feeding recommendations that support healthy metabolism while meeting your horse’s individual needs.
Mineral Balance
Understanding how mineral interactions influence metabolism, hoof quality, immune function, and overall wellness.
Healthy Weight Management
Supporting safe body composition without compromising nutrition or wellbeing.
Whole Horse Wellness
Because every body system is connected.
My Approach
My work is guided by one simple belief:
The body has an incredible capacity to heal when we understand what it needs.
Every recommendation is designed to support your horse as an individual, recognizing that no two horses share the same history, genetics, environment, or nutritional needs.
By combining careful observation, education, scientific understanding, and a wholistic perspective, we can work together to help your horse thrive—not simply avoid disease.
