Horses are MUCH more sensitive to essential oils than humans.

Never force an essential oil on a horse

Allow a horse to choose and breathe what they need and the length of time they need with a particular oil offering only about once per week unless their health or oestrus dictates otherwise.

If they breathe in 3-4 oils in a session, stop and offer others another day as more in one session will overwhelm the horse.

The horses’ choice may not always be what you would have chosen.

Never put an oil on a horses’ skin or allow them to ingest an oil unless advised to do so by a health care practitioner.
