Review
In this informative and well-organized herbal-remedy guide, Hilary Page Self writes from her years of experience using herbal remedies and alternative therapies for common ailments and injuries of her horses as well as using herbs to enhance their overall health. The author never "plays veterinarian," and encourages the consultation of a qualified veterinarian for serious illness and injury. Along with providing a list of common ailments and injuries that can be effectively treated with herbal medicine, the author gives a list of 50 readily obtainable herbs and plant-based remedies that have been useful and proven effective in the treatment of her horses. Detailed advice is given on how to make herbal preparations to be administered orally as well as on the use of herbs in making poultices and compresses. Throughout the book, the author describes situations whereby horses and ponies, if left in the wild, seek out certain plant substances to feed on depending upon what they need nutritionally. She firmly believes that an accepting and positive change in human attitudes toward herbal remedies will ultimately benefit the overall health of horses and that the use of herbal medicine for horses and other animals does not have to be at odds with modern veterinary methods. --Julia King
