\"\"<\/a>The power of essential oils and the Vitassage\u2122 extends beyond its use on people. I have been involved in helping rescue horses and other horses with high emotional issues, especially in the racing industry.<\/p>\n

In August 2012, Cole Woolley, vice president of Global Science, gave me a Vitassage to use on horses after he saw a presentation of my work on these majestic animals. Having done emotional clearings and the Raindrop Technique\u00ae<\/a> on many horses, I was excited to see what the Vitassage could do.<\/p>\n

I first tried the Vitassage with thoroughbred racehorses. They can be quite flighty, and the first mare was excited to see and smell me as I approached. Based on her history, I decided that the best oils for her were Peace & Calming\u00ae<\/a>, Release\u2122<\/a>, and Valor\u00ae<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At first I offered a couple of drops of Peace & Calming from my hand. As the mare smelled my hand, she decided to lick the essential oils. It\u2019s truly amazing how horses are so attracted to these essential oils\u2014it\u2019s like a treat for them!<\/p>\n

I massaged her shoulders in a circular motion until she became used to what I was doing. I proceeded to introduce the Vitassage in the \u201cOff\u201d position first. I then turned it on and massaged her in a circular motion along each side of the spine from withers (shoulders), to the dock (base of tail), over the rump, and down the shoulders and chest. Within a few minutes, her head lowered and she closed her eyes. She was asleep! I spent about 15 minutes with this horse, and there was a major change in her demeanor. She went from being an agitated and anxious horse to a quiet and settled horse.<\/p>\n

\"\"\"\"\"\"<\/p>\n

Recently I used the Vitassage with a 26-year-old purebred Appaloosa named Legend County Saints Thunder, affectionately known to his friends as Hector. Hector was a much quieter horse\u2014quieter than any horse I had worked on before. Because of this, I helped him \u201cchoose\u201d his oils. I held out a selection of open bottles, and with each one I would observe if he would move his head away or near the bottle or whether he would step away or closer to the bottle. Horses will tell you a lot about their preferences for the oils if you let them. The essential oils Hector chose were geranium<\/a>, Peace & Calming, and blue cypress<\/a>. After a few minutes, Hector was completely relaxed and closing his eyes. I proceeded to use the Vitassage on some tight spots along his spine and was able to provide a wonderfully relaxing experience for him.<\/p>\n

The Vitassage provides complete relaxation for horses within a short amount of time. It is a great tool to use on horses for emotional issues.<\/p>\n
