Equine Headshaking – can Shiatsu help?

Occasional shaking of the head may be normal, but repeated headshaking can become a serious problem in horses, due to painful, involuntary facial nerve irritation that can make the animal distressed, unrideable, or dangerous to handle.

An exploration of equine headshaking from an Equine Shiatsu perspective, combining current veterinary research with relevant anatomy, fascia, meridians and sensory structures of the head and neck.

What you’ll take away

Practical ways to assess the horse using observation, movement, history, Ting points and meridian/fascial patterns, plus useful Craniosacral techniques to incorporate into your Shiatsu practice.
