Equine Bowen Dubai

Phoebe received Bowen Therapy 3 times from Gen in 2017 and it has definitely had a positive effect on her emotionally and physically.

It was interesting to see the changes in Phoebe especially as there were no glaring physical problems, it has definitely been highly beneficial!

Kind Regards,

Lorna.

Is Jim still as stiff going right?

No

Do you feel he’s as tight behind?

No, much improved and extends in trot for the first time.

Are his flying changes still sticky?

Yes, but I have a lot to do with that.

Is he still as stiff picking up his hind legs when grooming?

He is better for sure

Is he still as cinchy when tightening the girth?

He is better but the twitching on the withers is still there.

Is he still as twitchy when touched?

Yes

Are there any other changes that you have noticed since beginning Equine Bowen Therapy?

He doesn’t mind being touched as much.

The extended trot is amazing.

Canter is amazing too.

I would highly recommend using Genevieve and Bowen Therapy. I’m still so surprised at the results, how fast they appeared, and the reaction my horse had to working with Genevieve. My horse has not been able to show extended paces – never. I’ve tried various therapists and exercises, however after just two treatments he’s a different horse and has clearly shown how much happier he is. His paces are huge now, and he very much loves moving so freely. I can’t thank Genevieve enough.

I recently had three Bowen therapy sessions with Gen for myself and my two horses. I found it a very valuable treatment for all of us for varying reasons. For myself, I didn’t have any specific physical pain except for a sore jaw. The therapy helped the pain massively and also the root cause of anxiety. My quality of sleep also improved and found I was less sore after workouts and polo games.

For my riding horse Pochy I found he was less tight and sore across his back and hindquarters, his flatwork/ dressage improved- particularly his bend to the right. He is also naturally a very nervous/ spooky horse and I found he was more calm after the sessions.

I didn’t have as much to compare with my polo pony Principito as I hadn’t had him long before he received the treatment however he very much enjoyed the sessions and seemed to respond very well. He began to find it easier to strike off on his left canter lead, which was something he was struggling with.

Feedback From Louise

Isabella after three treatments feels so much more relaxed. She is not as stiff as she leaves her box and she feels less heavy on the forehand. Her neck seems more supple and she is enjoying stretching through her neck and back. She seems so much calmer and more relaxed, not rushing as much when asked to make a transition. She appears to be less agitated when doing up her girth and generally has a feeling of well being about her. She is even more cuddly than before! It was obvious she was enjoying these treatments immensely.

Notes From Louise

Week one – much more bend in the right reign

Week two – Relaxed and eager to work. More flexibility on both sides

Week three – She was very relaxed and not willing to move forward as much, but in a way that was more relaxed than not wanting to do the work, but if you look at my week three, maybe she was experiencing the same and was tired?

Overall, I find her to be a lot more relaxed in her manner and just wants a cuddle!

Feedback From Alison

Hi Gen

Thank you for treating Snowball with Bowen Therapy, here is the testimonial.

Snowball received Bowen Therapy from Gen on 29/9, 3/10, 10/10 and 17/10 and it has definitely helped him in many ways and assisted with his transition from racehorse to riding horse. 

Snowball suffered quite a lot of weight loss after finishing his racing career, he had a weak N/H (his vet informed us that he had stifle problems as a youngster), he was stiff all over his body when first being ridden and when leaving the stable in the morning for exercise. All of these problems were affecting his ridden work and his demeanor, it would take a while for him to loosen up mentally and physically and he would often brace himself during ridden exercises presumably to protect his weak and stiff areas. He would feel heavy on his forehand which led to him tripping quite a lot and difficulty backing up. Due to his weak N/H Snowball would fall in on the left rein and sometimes he had trouble picking up the right canter lead.

Since receiving the Bowen Therapy there has been a noticeable improvement in all areas. After the first treatment all he wanted to do when ridden is walk along stretching his head and neck down as far as possible! Snowball has gained weight and increased in muscle tone, his coat looks better, his demeanor has improved, and his eyes look softer and happier. When being ridden Snowball feels increasingly more even on both reins, a lot lighter in the hand and drastically more loose in his shoulders. Snowball is now starting to come round and work in an outline, he backs up from my seat easily and his canter leads are easier to get. Overall he is no longer stiff, he leaves the stable walking freely and he rarely trips or stumbles.

I am very happy with the results and I’m sure Snowball is too!

Thank you again,

Alison O’Callaghan
