Posted - 24 Aug 2010 : 9:54:39 PM Has anyone ever used one? Was it successful?
This is the only avenue I haven't taken with Sylvie after her rearing incident as none of the 'physical' people can find anything that would be causing her to do this to such an extreme and so randomly.
Any thoughts or comments appreciated. |

Posted - 06 Sep 2010 : 1:46:13 PM Good luck Lindsay, I hope it helps Sylvie out. Can't say I've ever used a horse communicator so would be interested to know how it works out.
I did send a mare with a major rearing problem (much worse than Sylvie) to a Monty Roberts trainer years ago, the guy who ran the Monty courses back then. He is still going and I am about to send another to him - the mare way back when came back transformed. She is now 20 years old and has lived with a family in Kent for years being the "family pony" and doing a bit of endurance. Her problems never resurfaced.
Oxfordshire is a bit far for you though! |

Chrissie |
Posted - 03 Sep 2010 : 2:38:58 PM I will try to contact Isobel over the weekend to see when she is visiting West Yorks, Herts and any other areas so let me know everyone who wants a visit! |
Mrs DJ |

Posted - 02 Sep 2010 : 11:10:12 PM Debs, Tring is only really a stone's throw from us in Edgware and, as Chrissie says, she does try to organise a few in one area, so I'm sure she'd come to you when she's down.
She is amazing IMHO. And it's not just the communicating - the cranio-sacral work is quite unbelievable to watch too.

Posted - 02 Sep 2010 : 9:21:38 PM thanks chrissie, will wait to hear from you! |
Chrissie |
Posted - 02 Sep 2010 : 6:51:05 PM I'll find out if I can when she's coming to your area and pm you with any news debs... I think she's great. |

Posted - 02 Sep 2010 : 6:01:29 PM I'm in Bellingdon, which is Bucks but very near to Tring in Herts.... |
Chrissie |
Posted - 02 Sep 2010 : 10:07:48 AM I'm sure she will go anywhere - she likes to have a few people to visit in the same area as we all share her travel costs down from Scotland. I think she is coming to us around the 11th October - where abouts in Bucks are you? |
debs |
Posted - 02 Sep 2010 : 04:00:59 AM Oooh, Chrissie, do you know if Isobel covers Bucks??????? |
Chrissie |
Posted - 02 Sep 2010 : 01:05:34 AM I have also had Isobel out a couple of times and found her quite amazing.She is due to come down to the beds/ herts area in October. I really don't believe that she picks up on peoples body language as she is always totally focused on the horse. She also told me things that she couldn't possibly have known about my mare and did some cranial and back work, after which her shape improved, but also her temperament changed after the first visit. |

Posted - 01 Sep 2010 : 8:25:19 PM One of my friends has used an animal communicator, who does her readings over the phone & my friend swears by her, as she has told her things that she couldn't possibly know! I keep meaning out of curiosity really to contact her but never seem to get around to it!! I'll e-mail you the details Lindsay. |

Posted - 01 Sep 2010 : 4:28:19 PM i too am very sceptical, and have never had anybody like that out to me horse as I feel they just read the body language, both mine and the horses, for example start to say something and read your body language as to whether it makes sense to you or not. I'm sure there are some people out there with a special gift, but I for one cannot see how somebody can ready anything from a photograph. |

Posted - 01 Sep 2010 : 4:17:37 PM Well I must say I've had Isobel to several of my horses.
Two in particular, the mare in my signature and my black stallion which I owned from 8 months. Without Isobel's help, and although I knew my mare was a complex soul and as her breeder said "she was never the same when I got her back" (Fiona let her go on breeding loan and they bred a colt foal, but won't go into depth but suffice to say Fiona went and collected her sooner than was arranged!!) I still needed some help due to her breeder letting her go on loan, me sending her for backing and then letting her go on breeding loan because of my circumstances at the time.
Isobel was able to open up a huge amount about the mare and told me things she certainly could not have know. 1) that she had a tall gentleman riding her, absolutely not I said, yes she said, so eventually I said my son had ridden her and she said that's him, she likes him, he has a calm nature like your husband (my husband is dead, and yes what she said is true) Also, that someone rode her with one leg longer than the other although this did not bother her....couldn't think who, but then I said that my pelvis was out and that confirmed the person as me because I can never feel comfortable with my stirrups unless I've paid a visit to the osteopath. Also that someone with very strong legs and hands had ridden her, a very grounded person. Argued with Isobel that nobody like that had ridden her, then she said, a person with long brown hair and of small stature...bingo! it was my friend Kate when she was up from London.
I could go on for ages about other things she mentioned, and told me about that she couldn't possibly know. She was fabulous and told me my mare could not remember having foals...and this was due to human intervention when on loan by the breeder and myself!!
Jaffa, my black stallion was rising 5 and was always doing something to himself in the field. He was highly strung and very testosterone charged. Anyhow, vet, osteopath, and physio sent by vet did not help him. Isobel picked up on him that his legs were sore and that he had problems. She used Cranio Sacral on him and he never looked back, although more than one session the money was well worth it.
When in my kitchen she asked how Jaffa saw his foal, which my mare had lost due to his hind foot being caught behind the pelvis. Because my mare, told through Isobel, could not remember having any foals, although this foal had to be cut out of her, I put him in a wheel barrow and took him to her. This mare was branded a rejecting mare by the people who loaned her!! Anyhow, she nickered to her foal, sniffed him, nuzzled him, walked round her stable then back to him nickering softly. Jaffa saw the foal when I wheeled him out of the tack room when he was looking out of his stable which was beside the tack room.
Another was when I let him go to a western woman for some roundpen work (only meant to be away 4 days but had to collect him, but that's another story) Anyhow, Isobel said to me "he tried to tell you he didnt like the woman and said he neighed at me" and she showed how he reacted. Immediately, I remember him screaming at me when I walked from his stable with this woman, but when I looked back and thought "he doesn't like her I also shrugged and thought that I was being silly! How wrong I was and how I regret letting him go to her.
I could list umpteen situations Isobel has related that have been so true, and yet she couldn't have known.
It is unfortunate that some of you have had such bad experiences, but wrong to blacken her name because of such. She does indeed have a very special gift which obviously does not always work because some horses do block. All I can say is that I cannot speak highly enough of her and her work with my horses.

Posted - 29 Aug 2010 : 2:46:23 PM It was Isobel I had and I agree with Xsara, some of what she said was upsetting and I felt awful for the horse for what he'd been through (prior to me buying him!).
I think it's one of those things that is interesting, but as Zena says if you spend enough time with your horse you can read exactly what is going on with them! |

Posted - 29 Aug 2010 : 10:54:49 AM Yes i had isobel out before we lost honey to try and found out what was going on with her and to find out what happened when she went out on loan and why she came back so sore. Is was amazing what we were told bringing up things we had forgotten about her past and told us what did happen when she was on loan. Some of what was heard was hurtful to realise honeys views on what went on in her life and as we had her since a weanling and had her 11 years we knew what went on in her life. |

Posted - 29 Aug 2010 : 01:10:22 AM Wow £85 not a chance . i really dont believe in this .and i agree that it will be you they are reading and going on your body language .yes probably pick up on some signals from the horse but really if we listen enough ourselves the horse tells us what they think , problem is half the time we dont want to know or listen and then when a problem arises u seek expert help n then go awwe yeh thats what i thought n think there amazing (that sounds quite harsh) but just have my own opinion im sure im not the only one that thinks the same way x |
