Use of Alternative and Herbal Care
Amy and the staff at Heartland are described during the series using several alternative treatment methods for horses. One of the most common is the essence of the Bach flower, which is used to treat anxiety and induce serenity. Amy also uses behavioral techniques to help anxious or tortured horses; for example, "join-up" or "hooking on", a technique used by many natural horseback riding trainers. He is also regularly seen using massage and acupressure. One of the types of body work that Amy uses is called Tellington TTouch, made by Linda Tellington-Jones. Amy uses another aspect of Tellington Method to help the horse learn to pedal safely, and learns to increase confidence in the soil and under the saddle. Amy's reference to the physical characteristics of horses to analyze the horse's personality is based on Tellington-Jones's book "Getting in TTouch: Understanding and Influencing Your Horse Personality."
