Barefoot Hoof Care - Energizing Holistic Hoof Care
As the new science of holistic hoof care (Applied Equine Podiatry) becomes more widely accepted, advances that will greatly improve the way we domesticate our horses will come to light. As a viable alternative to the conventional farrier practice, Applied Equine Podiatry has taken great strides that go beyond the natural hoof care model that has served so many over the past two decades. Applied Equine Podiatry goes beyond static mechanics (the basis of the farrier sciences), kinematics (the study of motion), and even dynamics (the study of the energies that result in motion) by exploring and utilizing the science of “Energetics”.
