At the Holistic Horse Farm we believe in conscious living as close to Nature and Natural systems as possible.
We offer a natural boarding option for horse owners. Our livery yard is based on the work of Jaime Jackson’s research on wild horses, Paddock Paradise is a revolutionary model for safe, natural horsekeeping, hoof care, and the healing and rehabilitation of lame horses.
With the unique environment the horses are stimulated to behave and move naturally according to their instincts.
By providing a simulating a lifestyle for our beloved domestic horses based on the research of the diets, behaviors and movements of wild horses, we can facilitate a space where horses thrive and thereby have happier and healthier horses.
It is a solution for horses prone to Laminitis and Navicular Syndrome , can prevent and cure these conditions.
It is also a great option for raising youngster. As they will be developing a natural topline from a young age as the track system basically acts as a natural walker.
It’s a wonderful option for retired horses as they will still get plenty of exercise and stimulation. Their diet will also be more suitable for their special needs.
Our natural system is basically a natural walker, the horses naturally walk themselves in a well designed system as well as trickle/slow feed which is better for their digestive tracts.
- Reduces risk of tendon injury
- Naturally builds top line and encourages overall muscle development of horses in all age groups (saves time in training)
- Healthier hooves due to exposure to chosen surfaces
- Helps to condition and improve ligament and bone strength
- Encourages movement and thereby increases circulation, reduces inflammation in the legs and increases overall well being
- The whole herd gets exercised simultaneously in a natural and passive way
- Allows natural herd dynamics which result in horses who are more relaxed, who are less stressed and less susceptible to injury or disease
- A natural system improves pasture management as grazing can be optimally used
- Better adjusted horses who are naturally fit, healthy, and typically more friendly
- Can reduce certain injury recovery time
- Reduces stiffness in equine athletes just off the track & also enhances relaxation and attitude in the horse which helps accelerate the process of letting down and retraining in OTTBs
