I once shared a story on Facebook with a very positive outcome of a NOAH training on my own horse that suffered nonresponsive colic to medical treatment.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t

Then a client called because she was in a similar situation with an elderly horse. The horse was in great pain, and she and the veterinarian couldn\u2019t keep it on its legs. The vet would like her to hospitalize the horse if the medication was unable to provide pain relief within an hour. After that hour the situation was pretty much the same. The owner knew she couldn\u2019t afford surgery if necessary and furthermore, she thought the horse was too old to go through a long convalescence period in case of an operation. The owner then decided to try a NOAH training because she remembered my story and gave me a call.<\/p>

The horse was an hour drive away and could not keep standing so I trained it in virtual. After only 5 minutes in progress of training the horse got up \u2013 by itself \u2013 and stood relaxed, licking and chewing but tired.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

After 30 minutes she began to eat hay and a few hours later she had normal defecation. The owner was pretty convinced let\u2019s say\u2026 A few months later I got a reply from the owner that the horse was still doing fine.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

I will only recommend you to try NOAH or OMNIS training for colic in horses if the horse has been checked and treated by a veterinarian first. Time is a very important factor. If the horse needs an operation and is referred too late (more than 6-8 hours from onset of symptoms to surgery) the prognosis is often very guarded. On the other hand, acute symptoms seems to respond very well and fast to NOAH training even in virtual.<\/p>

Why Veterinary Care Comes First in Colic Cases <\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Colic in horses should always be treated as a veterinary emergency. Because the condition can develop quickly and may sometimes require hospitalization or surgery, the first step should always be a veterinary examination and appropriate medical care.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Supportive wellness approaches should never delay urgent veterinary decisions. In this case, NOAH was used only after the horse had already been assessed and treated by a veterinarian.<\/p>

In stressful or acute situations, horses may experience not only physical discomfort but also nervous system overload, emotional tension, and difficulty relaxing. A holistic support approach may focus on helping the animal return to a calmer and more balanced state while conventional veterinary care addresses the medical situation.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

NOAH may be used as a non-invasive wellness support tool with a focus on balance, relaxation, energetic support, and overall wellbeing.<\/p>

Can NOAH replace veterinary care in colic cases?<\/strong><\/p>

No. Colic can be life-threatening and always requires veterinary attention. NOAH should only be considered as supportive wellness care after a veterinarian has examined the horse.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Why is time important in horse colic?<\/strong><\/p>

Some colic cases may require urgent medical intervention or surgery. Delaying veterinary care can reduce the chances of a positive outcome.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Can stress affect a horse during colic?<\/strong><\/p>

Stress and pain may place additional pressure on the nervous system. Supporting calmness and relaxation may help the horse\u2019s overall wellbeing during a difficult situation.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

What does holistic support mean in this context?<\/strong><\/p>

It means looking at the horse\u2019s overall wellbeing, including stress, emotional balance, relaxation, and comfort, while veterinary care remains the priority.<\/p>

\u00a0<\/p>

Is NOAH intended to diagnose or treat colic?<\/strong><\/p>

No. NOAH is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent disease. It may be used as a supportive wellness approach alongside appropriate veterinary care.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t
