Fundamentals of Equine Acupressure 2 continues the learning journey introduced in the first program, taking you deeper into the core techniques and treatment strategies used to support the health and wellbeing of the equine athlete. This second-level course builds on the foundational concepts of meridians, acupoints, and hands-on technique, and expands your skills with more advanced point combinations, assessment approaches, and practical applications for common equine conditions.
Designed as a clear, easy-to-follow training, the course lets you watch and learn directly from real demonstrations. You will see exactly how to locate points, how to approach different horses safely, how to vary pressure, and how to integrate techniques into everyday care or professional bodywork sessions. The goal is confidence — confidence in your touch, confidence in your understanding, and confidence in applying acupressure in ways that genuinely help the horse feel and move better.
