Make sure you have purchased, “Level 1: Equine Musculoskeletal Unwinding” before proceeding onto “Level 2: Cranial Sacral Unwinding & Advanced Applied Kinesiology.” More than just a DVD, this product includes your enrollment in an equine bodywork course! Your purchase includes the DVD video, a downloadable course workbook, and the option to earn a certificate of completion after submitting 5 case studies. (Information on redeeming the workbook and testing to receive the certificate will be provided with the DVD.) In this level 2 course, we’ll go deeper to release tension in the Fascia not allowing the organs, muscles, tendons, ligaments, bones, and joints to load or move correctly. This is what is creating your mysterious lameness. Why are the hooves not under the shoulder or hip as they should be? Did you know that this creates premature arthritic conditions like sidebone, ringbone, kissing spine, arthritic knees, and hocks? Then what else is next? A lot! We use advanced Applied Kinesiology to ask where there is pain in the body and what the body needs to release the energetic blocks so it can heal. The area that is painful and lame is not where it usually starts though so we backtrack it thru the body to find the cause as well. What does the horse need to heal? For how many days? And then what? Also, we look at the energy meridians and how that affects the horse, and what you can do about it. This knowledge will help the Practitioner excel at finding the problem areas in competition and equine athletes to help keep them sound and performing at their peak for many years to come.

Excellent follow thru!
I have been following April Love with Holistic Horseworks on Youtube for a few years now. And when she posted about "headshaking Horses" & horses that "spooked alot" she described my horse! I found this DVD easy to follow, even with no previous anatomy or cranial knowledge, she let me thru how to do it!I was full of doubt at the beginning of my session, at the end of my 1st session with my horse I NOTICED A HUGE SHIFT & difference coming from my horse of Calm Soft Horse with Big Yawns and Dreamy Eyes looking like "thank you" he says!Thank-you April for your insightful Therapy & Home Study!

Really Helped Me Help My Horse
After learning Level 1 Equine Musculoskeletal Unwinding this DVD is a must have for those that have a thirst for knowledge of what is really going on with your horse when you receive a diagnosis of Uveitis, Head shaking, Auto Immune issues, EPSM, Kissing spine possible causes and what we can do as horse owners to support our ow horses health at home.Much easier on my body than trying to massage my horse and the whole body softening from one easy to do session is amazing to see! The best part is I did it myself with April's helpful video and workbook

Absolute waste of money! Contents of DVD aren't even close to the title description!
I was given the impression, based on the title and description, that this severely overpriced DVD was actually going to provide useful information, in a professional manner. It does not.Overall, the video is very amateur, probably done with a cheap video editor, by someone unfamiliar with video editing. There is no instruction, only endless referrals back to a course that apparently covers the material in detail. All you get in the video is brief descriptions while you watch the speaker, showing 'techniques' anyone can easily find in google images for free. Heck, some of them I found on my own by accident!As far as "craniosacral unwinding", you have to apparently take a course to figure out what that is. This dvd only refers back to that course for more information on "craniosacral unwinding". Not sure what the "unwinding" is, but I've figured out more on my own, about craniosacral therapy. At the very least, a video on the topic should explain to those not in the know just what craniosacral therapy is. Again, a google search could provide more information than this Dvd for free.There is no advanced, not even a rudimentary discussion of kinesiology. Wikepedia would provide more information on the definition of the term - again, for free - and there are several books available by professionals who cover kinesiology of the horse in great detail, so much cheaper than this DVD, and at least you have a chance of learning something.I've been doing body work for a while now, but I never claim to be an expert. I am constantly taking clinics, reading books and watching videos, looking for something I can use, so I may be a little ahead of some potential purchasers. Up until now, I have always been able to find 1 technique, 1 statement, 1 diagram, that I didn't know before, or that makes me consider a possible better or different way of doing something. This video provided absolutely nothing. Even the demo horse was pretty bored with the session, and unlike EVERY other video or in-person class I have taken, showed absolutely no reaction to this, kid you not, (can't remember the exact words so I'm going to paraphrase here) 'treatment of love'.Potential buyers, if you want to treat with love, put your palms on C5 (some horses react more at C4) on both sides of your horse's neck and just stand there, palm over the point of the vertebrae. It's almost like a hug and after a few minutes you will get a release from your horse. After he releases, give him a kiss. We'll call this the "Half hug of love". No charge for the instruction of that method, and I've just taught you more than you would learn in the video you are expected to pay a fortune for.Had this been a $12 video, I would have kept my mouth shut. My goal here is to protect others from getting ripped off like I did. Run away!

Wonderful DVD to Compliment Level 2; Not a Stand Alone DVD
If you are wanting to continue your education with Holistic Horseworks then this DVD will be a great compliment to add to your studies. Remember when purchasing this DVD it is not meant to be used as a stand alone for information. You need to contact April to get the Level 2 workbook. While the DVD has wonderful demonstrations of the moves in this program the workbook provides much more information to understand the reason for these moves. They go hand in hand. April offers great information and can give you the guidance you need to use this DVD to it's full potential. I love having the DVD on hand to go back and see the moves being done and gives me a great reference to refer back to.
