FUNCTIONAL HOOFCARE

Michelle has completed the Diploma of Equine Podiotherapy, 2 years of intensive training run by the Australian College of Equine Podiotherapy. The course covers detailed equine anatomy, hoof pathologies, nutrition, biology, hoof balance, hoof function and the completion of the Diploma includes passing a written and practical exam plus 16 detailed case studies... Enrolling in the Diploma was a natural progression from completing a maintenance trimming clinic with Andrew Bowe from www.barehoofcare.com. After having hoof issues with her own Thoroughbred gelding Michelle could not find a farrier to give her the help or information she was looking for until she came across a "barefoot trimmer" who was undertaking the Diploma course himself and was able to explain in detail the function of the hoof, then all the pieces of the puzzle started to come together!
