Nervous Equine Formulas
Gentle Natural Balance for Different Types of Horses
Every horse expresses nervous energy differently. These formulas draw on traditional herbal associations to support balance, calm, and focus.
-
Type B (Valerian) — Traditionally linked with calming tense muscles and easing rigid patterns of fear. (Note: Valerian is swab-positive for racing horses and therefore excluded from racehorse formulas.)
-
Type C (Vervain) — Associated with sensitive skin and high reactivity, traditionally valued for soothing agitation in horses that are restless and twitchy.
-
Type D (Chamomile) — Known for its connection with digestive comfort, chamomile has long been used in traditional practice for nervous horses that “worry in the gut” and lose condition under stress.
-
Type E (Hops) — Symbolically tied to calming a busy mind, this support is linked with focus and steadiness for horses that are easily distracted.
-
Type F (Passionflower) — Traditionally seen as helping to “reset patterns,” passionflower has been valued for encouraging relaxation and balance, especially when paired with mindful handling.
-
Type G (Hypericum) — In traditional herbalism, Hypericum has been linked with nervous system balance and renewal, especially where old stress patterns linger.
Dosage for a horse is minimum dosing due to their unique metabolism.
For example approx. 10 drops as "one dose" is all that needed for horse, due to their unique metabolism.
