The Little Horse Big Conversation Podcast

Joining Ross and Amy in conversation this week are registered Osteopaths, Sara Farina and Dr Ross Johnston, founders of The Johnston Farina Method®, and the Johnston Farina Academy.

In her practice, Sara Farina combines advanced osteopathic principles with a clinical approach founded on a deep belief that every animal deserves thoughtful,
individualised care, whilst Dr Ross Johnston, a research-active osteopath and educator and is an internationally recognised pain specialist with more than two decades of clinical and academic experience.

With individual backgrounds in their respective professions within human and animal osteopathy, Ross and Sara share each of their pathways into osteopathy, discussing how we can look at manual therapy in more compassionate ways by accounting for the horses lived experience through a neurodynamic and bi-directional approach, working to be less mechanistic and more holistic; creating a relationship with the patient, regardless of species, is at the heart of the creation of the Johnston-Farina Method®

Offering more than a topic on 'how to load your horse', this is a conversation that emphasises and explore the changes we can make in our perspective and awareness that always lead to the better outcomes.

This week Amy and Ross were pleased to be joined by sixth generation horseman, doctor of veterinary medicine and author of the book 'Insight to Equus', Dr. Tomas G. Teskey.

 

Among his many accolades as an equine dentist, hoof care professional and veterinarian, Dr. Teskey is one of the few professional holistic veterinarians that truly looks at the whole horse to promote real health and healing.

 

In a conversation sure to challenge thoughts and change perspectives, Dr. Tomas talks of what first drew him towards a career in veterinary medicine and his continued professional progression in a multitude of complementary areas, before discussing the importance of healthy environments to promote true healing within the horse, how this looks in the face of a changing climate and the collective hope we can achieve together for the future.

 

From practical information to philosophical conversation, this is one for both the horseman and philosophers.
