A number of years ago I found a British Study on using Homeopathy with Horses who had Cushings. You can see this article here: http://www.thepenzancehorse.com/2008/BITSNPIECES/CUSHINGS/cushingsresearch.htm
THE FOLLOWING is a study that was published in PUB MED (nih.gov) telling of the results of that study. VERY ENCOURAGING!
Forty-one cases of Cushing’s Disease affecting both equine and canine patients were treated with an identical mixture of two homeopathically prepared remedies (ACTH 30c and Quercus robur 30c), and the clinical improvements seen in the cases assessed. Homeopathy has been described as a medicine that can only be prescribed on the basis of individual symptoms shown, fitting the remedy to the patient, not the disease. The aim of this study was to define whether a standardised approach, using homeopathically prepared remedies, was a valid system of therapy for this disease, and if so, whether results were repeatable between species. The overall success rate for the therapy was 80% and results were broadly similar between the two species, indicating that homeopathy lends itself to the treatment of Cushing’s Disease, and also to both cohort studies and group medicine.
Oh.my.GODFRY … I can’t even. I’m seeing more and more and more inquiries as to “why is my horse so sore!?” and it’s KILLING ME … my motto is now NO HEEL=NO HOOF=NO HORSE!!! It’s that simple. If your horse doesn’t have 1″ of depth of the collateral groove under the seat of corn and heel platform then your horse does not have enough heel! It’s THAT SIMPLE Folks … NO HEEL=NO HOOF=NO HORSE!!!!! Here’s what your horses’ hooves should be lookin’ like from the side: Do y’all see HEELS? From the back of the hoof? You want to be seeing about 2″ between the hairline (straight and NOT “V” shaped!) and the ground! … Take a look and I’ll challenge ya — post a pic of your horses’ hoof here in comments or send to me and I’ll do a quick commentary (I’ll be positive! )

Well, it’s officially SPRINGTIME in New England and this is the time that we begin to get our horses conditioned up for the season.
As we do so we may find that our horse is just “not quite right”.
If you horse is —
Not straight, not tracking up fully, not striding out completely, a bit ‘girthy’, a bit ‘balky’ or even downright spooky and bolty and grumpy (oh, those “mare’s ears”! *lol*) …
These all may be signs of muscle spasms and pains, aches, tenderness in the body somewhere that we ALL get during the cold winter months.
I can help you and your horse. **
If you’re in the Canterbury, CT area I am offering a SPRING SPECIAL … Just $75 for a full BODYWORK** session that will not only identify and find those muscle spasms and that are making your horse a spastic creature but will relieve most, if not all of them, in one to one and a half hour session. (Sometimes the individual horse will need two or more sessions to fully come round. No pun intended. *wink*)
If you have two or more horses, $75 for the 1st one and $50 each for the others.
Go here: Finished Article BODYWORKS.pdf (thepenzancehorse.com) for more complete description and explanation of how PENZANCE BODYWORKS can help you and your horse! Then CALL or TEXT TODAY, 774-280-4227 to set up your appointment.
** Utilizing a combination of Masterson, Tellington-Jones, Acupressure and Massage to uniquely and individually meet the specific needs of the individual horse.
Ordering an anthology of over 600 pages can be daunting, I understand. So — we’ve now broken our NATURAL HOOFCARE ANTHOLOGY down to 4 separate e-books – 2016, 2017, 2018 and 2019-2020. (The original is just 3 years, 2016-2018)
Instead of paying $97 for the full ANTHOLOGY of over 600 pages in FULL COLOR, each selection is now just $37 !!!
So that makes it easier on the pocketbook. Of course, if you wish, you can SAVE ALMOST $50 and order the original 600 page NATURAL HOOFCARE ANTHOLOGY from 2016 – 2018 for just $97!!
The choice is yours. Just select your option in the drop down menu: (Please note that the original is 3 years only – 2016-2018 and does not include 2019/2020.)
WHY, you ask? Why would you WANT these anthologies? I have a plethora of over 30 years experience in barefoot hoofcare on horses of all ages, breeds, colors, types, disciplines. I’ve spent the last almost 25 years dealing with extreme pathologies with a 98% success rate. I’ve taught Natural Hoofcare since 1997 and continue to do so as I continue to learn more and more. I’ve studied so many experts that I have a toolbox of ‘methods’ that is overflowing. I don’t adhere to any one ‘method’ of barefoot trimming of hooves but, strongly stress that one needs to care for the “HOOF IN HAND on the HORSE IN HAND”!!
These anthologies are a culmination of 5 years of writing articles for Scoot Boots. You can always find the articles there, if you’d like, for free but I’ll warn you .. there are hundreds! I wrote weekly for those years. 52 weeks a year – on ALL topics of hoofcare from trimming to pathologies to healthcare and “feeding the hooves”. You’ll find articles on basic, natural hoofcare all the way to caring for the most devastating conditions such as Laminitis, Founder, White Line Disease, Thrush, Yeast and more.
These anthologies take the hundreds of articles and compile them into years. So, instead of way over 600 pages of FULL COLOR, easy to understand, sometimes humorous and other times deadly serious articles, you can easily look up the titles in the contents to find what you’re looking for without being overwhelmed.
The original collection of articles has been lauded by such renowned experts as Yvonne and Jim Welz, Dr. Tomas Tesky, Leslie Desmond and more. All ranking as the best of the best in the world of horses.
PENZANCE Equine Integrative Solutions is world-renown as offering top class education and training and I have authored several other best sellers such as “10 Secrets to Healthy Hooves”, “Feeding the Natural Horse”, and soon to be published, “Whole Heath for the Whole Horse” and more.
A recent testimony came from a fellow Hoofcare Practitioner …
“Never ever ever think you can trim without learning Anatomy first and learning from an established professional like Pete Ramey or Gwenyth Santagate Penzance Equine Integrative Solutions … ”
and another …
“Hi Gwen, Just had to write you a quick note to let you know that I rode N today at Borderland State Park and he was AWESOME!!! He was 100% sound, no head bob at all. He was light and very forward and just wanted to go. We did extended trots and cantered all the fields. I’m still on a high! This is the first time in 3 years of owning him that he was this sound. I just wanted to thank you so much for doing what you do and for spreading your knowledge. Will you ever know how many horses you have “saved” from a life of pain. And to think that they (vets & univ. equine employees) couldn’t figure out Nico’s lameness. Shame on them and lucky me!! Hopefully N and I will enjoy many many more years together in the woods and fields. Thank you, thank you. — Sue, MA
and yet another … a cherished one from the farrier world! And that’s a HARD, hard circle to break into as a ‘barefoot trimmer’. I’m very proud of this …
“You have a well deserved reputation for being honest, knowledgable, sober and sane.” –George S., Member – International Chapter of Journeymen Horseshoers and Allied Equine Trades.
“I would urge anyone who is interested in horses to read Gwenyths book,you may or may not agree with everything (like most things written) But it is written from personal experience over several years by a very experienced professional who really cares about horse welfare and is always willing to share knowledge. So go get yourself a short cut to experience.” , Nick Hill, V&T Equine Services, UK

Santagate has always fed ‘salads’ to horses but as special “treats” until, in 2009, one of her own horses was in such bad shape that no veterinary care or pharmaceutical drugs were helping her. The only option was humanely putting the mare down. As a last resort a Naturopath from California was contacted and Santagate was assured that ALL COMMERCIAL HORSE FEED could safely and beneficially, in fact, be removed from the diet and substituted with nothing but fresh, raw vegetables, fruits, nuts and seeds. This was totally contrary to what all conventional veterinarians and horse experts were saying. Santagate implemented the ‘daily salads’, removed all processed food, supplements and medicines. The changes observed were astounding. The mare recovered in just a few months and became her former, healthy, active (albeit older) self! This event was also another ‘connection’ to what the author had been seeking for the prior decade – WHY WERE HORSES GETTING SICKER AND SICKER at younger and younger ages even though their owners were spending thousands of dollars on providing “the best grain”, “the best veterinary care”, “the best medicines” that money could buy? What was going wrong? In these pages you will read things that will make you really think if you are truly seeking answers to how to feed your horse … for his or her optimal health and wellness. You may even be seeking an answer to a health problem that your horse is experiencing.
