Herbal
Health
At
Middle Ruckham, we have a natural and non-invasive approach
to achieve optimal physical and emotional health, using
the ability all animals have to self medicate. We facilitate
this process by giving animals access to a wide selection
of plant and mineral-based medicines such as essential oils,
base oils infused with medicinal plants, dried whole or
powdered herbs, and clays.

Animals
instinctively 'know' what they need as their taste and smell
perception is altered by their condition enabling them to
seek out plants with the combinations of active ingredients
that they require to rebalance their systems. Once they
have taken the quantity needed, their taste and smell perception
reverts to normal and they will no longer need these plants.
We offer consultations to determine what natural medicines
your animal needs to rebalance their system. This highly
successful approach can be used to address emotional and
behavioural imbalances as well as physical issues, and works
for all animals. We will show you how the process works,
then leave you with the selected medicines to continue offering
them to your animals. Consultations from £25.

"I
go to nature to be soothed and healed, and to have my senses
put in order." ~John Burroughs

the freedom to roam through acres of wildflower meadows, either
alone or as part of a small herd, selecting medicinal plants
that occur naturally, and building fitness and strength whilst
doing so. From £50/week
