Acupressure Methods for Horses
Education for Horse Owners

Experienced practitioner Diana Thompson teaches a classical, correct style of equine acupressure most horses enjoy. Her hands-on methods are easy to learn, safe to apply, and remarkable in their positive influence on horse health and performance. With Diana‘s guidance in her books, online courses, or in -person classes, you can learn how to use the gentle touch of your fingers to:
Calm the nervous, fearful, impatient, or irritable horse.
Relax the muscles of the horse’s neck, shoulders, front legs, back, and hindquarters.
Support the health of the digestion, lungs, heart, and other organs.
Increase mental focus and deepen the horse-handler partnership.
The 21-page E-book shows you how to use three powerful acupressure points known to calm horses and help in times of distress. The E-book includes information from five veterinarians and high-quality point charts you can print and keep in the barn.

The Video Lesson shows you how to locate and apply acupressure to Governing Vessel 26, one of the three points in the E-book. Veterinarians report this point is known to calm horses, relieve pain, help during colic, and restart a horse’s heart and breathing in cases of shock and cardiac arrest.

“Diana’s acupressure and massage methods give you the ability to change a high-strung, frightened horse into a relaxed, attentive one - it’s like magic!! I’ve used the techniques on a variety of horses and I assure you – you’ll end up with a very happy, relaxed horse!”
“My husband and I were camping in the mountains when my mare severely colicked. We used the massage and acupressure methods Diana taught us to relieve the colic in a short time. I’ve also used these techniques to calm a nervous horse before competition and on the trail to relax a stressed horse. This work is easy to use and effective in practice, a must for every horse owner.”
“Diana is an excellent teacher. She is extremely intuitive and talented in her ability to solve both physical and emotional problems in horses. Diana taught me how to apply massage, acupressure, and Bach Flower Remedies to my horse. The methods are easy to apply and they improve his well-being. Diana gives you tools that you can use to make a positive difference in the horses in your life.”
“Diana Thompson is an amazing teacher. She taught me invaluable knowledge about acupressure, Bach flowers, and horses in general. This knowledge has helped me improve the lives of many horses. I used Diana’s acupressure point charts and methods to help save a horse who was just about to be euthanized due to severe colic. The attending veterinarian and the horse owner were delighted.”
“I’ve participated in many of Diana’s programs. Simply put, magic happens. She explains to the horse owner how the horse’s muscular issues and energy imbalances are affecting the horse’s ability to perform. Then, she shows the owner how to do acupressure and massage methods on the horse to relieve the problems. Both the horse’s performance and the rider’s ability improve markedly.”
“My rescued Thoroughbred mare would bite or kick when I tried to touch her. Amazingly enough, it took acupressure on just one point, Gall Bladder 21, to help Blaze change. When I touched the point, the muscles in Blaze’s neck relaxed and she lowered her head. Then she started licking and chewing. The more acupressure I did with her the more she liked it. After a few days I added another point and went on from there. Now I can touch Blaze anywhere on her body. She doesn’t kick, bite, or flinch when I touch her.”
“I highly recommend Diana Thompson’s Acupressure Methods for Horses Comprehensive Online Course. The materials are excellent. I’m amazed at the positive influence acupressure has had on the health of my horses as I’ve progressed through the class. I consider Diana’s course to be one of the very best investments I’ve made in the health and happiness of my horses! “
