The Johnston Farina Method®
A modern, novel approach to equine neuromusculoskeletal pain management
OUR SIGNATURE APPROACH
THE METHOD
A MODERN APPROACH TO EQUINE CARE
The Johnston Farina Method® incorporates a range of skillsets within a package of care which represents a modern and novel approach to equine neuromusculoskeletal pain management.
Drawing on pre-established osteopathic and manual methods of assessment and adapting these within a protocol of newly developed equine techniques focused on optimising neuro-lymphatic and neurodynamic function, the Method represents an evidence-informed and advanced approach to equine manual therapy.
WHAT SETS IT APART
THREE PILLARS OF THE METHOD
Evidence-Informed
An advanced approach to equine manual therapy, rooted in contemporary pain neuroscience and research.
Neuro-Lymphatic & Neurodynamic
Newly developed equine techniques that optimise neuro-lymphatic, neurovascular and neurodynamic function.
The Unspoken Dialogue
Practitioner intention that builds a better, unspoken dialogue with the horse and elevates the therapeutic connection.
BUILT ON ESTABLISHED PRACTICE, EXTENDED BY NEW RESEARCH
The Method sits at the heart of our Level 6 Diploma in Equine Osteopathic Pain Management — a trademarked package of care developed from research into the equine nervous system, and taught exclusively by its co-developers, Dr Ross Johnston and Sara Farina.
