The Equine Practitioner Course covers -
ConTact C.A.R.E Equine Practitioner courses are for foundation level students who are in the process of gaining their equine practitioner qualification, or already qualified human and/or equine practitioners who would like further learning working with horse injuries, trauma and/or performance issues to a more efficient level. Equine Practitioner courses develop an advanced understanding of ConTact C.A.R.E and the Flinchlock Release Method for Equines. Courses are part of the Equine Practitioner Training Programme and each course offers a different aspect relative to Practitioner level training. The course aims to give a sound knowledge of the ConTact C.A.R.E System Charts, their function and their effect on the body's interconnected skeletal system when flinchlocked. Participants will gain practical effective skills, the awareness of full treatment protocols and a knowledge of what conditions can be treated. Covering horse & rider pressure release, gear relativity and First Aid for the horse & rider situation.
Each Year a Practitioner Skills weekend is available for - Students ready for assessment to become fully qualified Practitioners; Practitioners who are already qualified and want to stay refreshed with the latest techniques and knowledge; Human Senior Practitioners who would like to up-skill their equine knowledge. They are for gaining an understanding of the levels of injury being effective and efficient when working with horses with stress, trauma and/or performance issues at these levels and to up-skill with the latest techniques to develop an in-depth understanding of Equine ConTact C.A.R.E. Courses are part of the Practitioner Training Programme and student practitioners are able to have assessment for certification on this weekend.
