“As Science moves society towards technology, we are disconnected from nature’s invisible forces. These forces maintain a state of wellness, communication and self-awareness. By honoring the intuitive truth and the universal state of balance, I smile inside without concern for the challenges that have been over come and the doors I’ve opened for others to step through.”
Her career as a dream maker has brought smiles to many faces. Now she is realizing her dream! Patricia’s life adventure has defined a new philosophy and perhaps expands the potential to change our understanding of life.
No, that is not ego speaking. Its the recognition of her accomplishment.
She instinctively knows how to positively influence a horse in work, without the use of artificial means; drugs, shoes, or expensive equipment. Watching her work, defies logic while illustrating a connection using invisible words shared with intelligent self-aware animals, who know exactly were it hurts.
A natural ability to sense, direct and employ invisible influences, “energy”, redefines the whole animal, not just an isolated complaint. With a velvet gesture they surrender their fear, allowing her to transform their pain. In silent trust, human and horse redefine the observer’s understanding of connection. Working in the kill zone, Patricia’s fearless introduces the horse’s body to the concept of comfort.
Patricia is an innovative thinker, who has developed her own system of universal body balancing. Techniques and protocols reshape the understanding of the self healing body. Releasing the physical stress promotes resistant free relationships.
An avid student of the horse, she noted equestrian studies neglected discussions relating to structural imbalances in both horse and the rider. Balance became the foundation for her life’s quest, leading her to focus on philosophy, religious studies and spiritual writings, Natural and Holistic therapies and trust in her natural powers of observation as an artist.
Educational encounters with alternative scientific research, veterinary science, electrical engineering, government researchers, various structural and healing arts elevated her appreciation for people known as healers. A trip to Australia’s outback confirmed her energetic abilities needed to be honor. Living in a state of Allow connected herto Universal concepts, shamanic traditions and social challenges.
Always drawn to horses, her patient parents realized her need. It started in Peterborough Ontario Canada, were she rode with Sue Ramsey, CEF Dressage Chair( retired), who promoted the French School riding philosophies. In 1972, Patricia completed FEC Premier Level Riding Instructor . Her professional career led to the Canadian Equestrian Federation providing certification as a Course Designer, Coach, Judge and Stewart. A full and successful career left a sense of dis-satisfaction.
Working with lame and challenging horses advanced a curiosity for anatomy, leading to Cornell University and the study of Equine Emergency First Aide 1990. Exposure to allopathic philosophies of investigation and treatment of animals, shifted her focus towards holism in horsemanship.
Full of questions, she studied Psychology at Carleton University, Ottawa Ontario and Coaching Psychology. Riding the crest of new thinking during the mid 80’s and 90’s, she studied Equine Massage offered by JP Hourfdebraigt leading her to certifications in Animal Chiropractic, and advanced certification in Red Light Therapy.
Moving to the United States in1997, she met Dr. Gerald Wessner, of the Holistic Veterinary Clinic. Here experiences relating to energy medicines and vibration therapies showed amazing potential but lacked the consistent results she was looking for. Certification in Advanced C. A. A. E. from the Young Living Essential Oil company, compliment her interest.
With an integrated understanding, Patricia expanded the services of the Balanced Horse, started in Canada in1991. This therapeutic horse and rider service supported the careers of clients and their horses as they prepared for the Olympics, race meet and shows.
In 1999, consumer demands for cost effective results in care and training, renewed Patricia’s quest to understand the “How, Where, When and Why’s” of challenging equine behavior and lameness. Her daily experiences regularly contradicted veterinary science, setting up dynamics of opposition.
How could one person change the opinion of a whole discipline? All these factors merged to form the Balanced Horse Project™ in 2000. To justify her position, she develop methods of collecting and analyzing data relating to organic rehabilitation of horses. Once the first pieces of the puzzle were realized, she had nothing to lose. Patricia set out to do what traditional thinkers would call impossible.
Her goal was to surpass the results of established therapies, animal chiropractics, training philosophies, corrective shoeing, and the traditions of veterinary medicine. Photos, outlines and measurements documented her success. Under Patricia’s care, the bodies of cast off horses redefined or self healed when exposed to her training knowledge, her intent and the harmonics of the surrounding environment. Working with limited exposure to the outside world, she refined the techniques and the resources. After years of challenging and verifying her finding, she is finally comfortable with the results of her experience.
Patricia’s statements are extreme for some to consider. The results of trusting the horses and understanding that nature loves courage, has allowed her to successfully work outside of the box. Her data supports the shift of isolated or reductionist systems into the realms of holographic, fractal and electric exchanges.
With blind testing, performance testing and exposure to multiple forms of equine sports injuries, the evidence demonstrates a range of positive adaptions that altered the lives of un-trainable of horses. Regenerative TLC™ is one of the many systems of body renewal developed from her research. The same applications have assisted dogs, cats, cows, goats and many curious people.
Several publications and TV programs have shared her story. Patricia has always wished to be interview on radio. In 2011 her wish created an interview which lead to the development of the Balanced Horse Project Radio™ show.
A list of infamous horses have filled her life, some competitive, while others are just family friends. The horses whom tradition discarded and medicine failed became her blessings. Without them the strategies of the Balanced Horse Project™, would lack the facts to support its statements. Patricia stands in awe of the numbers of owners, who have allowed this natural concept to grow, drawing what science can not define, into everyday life.
