Asthma / COPD – Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease

Absolutely delighted with the results of a series of salt therapy treatments for my 19 year horse.  He is now completely of steroids for the first time in months.
I would highly recommend this simple yet effective treatment.
Val & Connor – April 2020

 

I had Katie come out to do some salt therapy for my mare who was recently diagnosed with COPD and struggling with the heat and high pollen count. Can’t believe the difference, massively decreased her respiratory effort with lasting effects and she is generally a lot more comfortable, being increased back to full work and doing really well. Katie has been brilliant with my mare and is very knowledgeable and friendly, 5 stars – highly recommend!

I really cannot recommend Katie enough. My boy has been poorly for several months with his asthma and allergies to the point where I have considered having him put to sleep as it was awful to watch him suffer and wasn’t fair on him. I booked him in for salt therapy sessions as a final resort hoping it will make him feel better. Archie has had his 3 initial sessions and a top up session this week. Today he has been the first day where I have seen a little bit of improvement, I am now feeling hopeful that with more sessions this will keep my boy more comfortable. Katie has been absolutely amazing!! Her knowledge and support she has given me along the way has been amazing. I feel confident and relieved that I can message Katie at anytime for her advice and support and i have always got just that.! She is amazing with my lad and he has made a new friend (which is great as my lad doesn’t like new people) archie loves his therapy sessions and I’m sure it’s because he knows it’s helping him. So again YES I 1000% recommend Katie and the therapy she offers. I feel I have more advice from Katie than I ever have from a vet, so thank you and i look forward to archies next session and I’m sure he is to.

Susie cant be ridden during the summer months without really regular salt sessions. She has asthma trigged by pollen. I can message katie in a panic and she is with us as fast as she can. Fabulous lady with a fabulous non steroid treatment for a pony that can’t afford to risk other treatment avenues.
Laura and Susie – May 2020

 

Katie treated my mare and I cant thank her enough, no longer wheezing like she was. My horse has both equine asthma and seasonal hayfever and she has really struggled with her breathing this year and last. Thank you so much Katie, id highly recommend anyone to try salt therapy with Katie and wait and see the difference.

Breathing issues / Coughing

Recently had Katie to do salt therapy for my horse, really pleased with the improvement this has made . Katie is reliable polite and keeps you informed of the process and what you should expect, she also checks up on how things are going after and would highly recommend.
Maddie & Daisy – Oct 2023

 

Absolutely amazing. My little zoey had salt therapy and the improvements after 3 days is incredible. thank you do much for helping her.
Amber & Zoey – April 2021

 

Could not recommend Katie enough, the difference in my horse is amazing, a truly different horse whom prior to treatment was coughing on every ride and quite lethargic to one that has a new lease of life and no coughing!
Teresa & Dolly – Sept 2020

 

Solo enjoys her salt sessions, I have seen an massive change in her since being in for the winter, no more stable coughs.
Devon & Solo – Aug 2020

 

Over the past month I’ve been having Katie and her salt therapy for my 14.2 Welsh who has Copd and struggles all the year round. Within 2 days of our first session dolly was a new pony before we couldn’t even warm up (walk and trot) without having to give her a breather let alone cantering and jumping, I would do one jump and at a push on a good day, join two up together but that’s all she would be able to cope with. Well thank God Katie came along we can do at least 10 jumps as a course with out stopping or me worrying about if she can breathe. Dolly has had huge improvement; I really didn’t think it would make much difference but I am so glad we did it. Dolly is a lot happier in herself, she feels amazing, she hasn’t felt like this in a long time. Me and my mum went into this with an open mind as we hadn’t heard much about it, but we went for it and it’s the best thing we have done for our horses are completely different and it’s not just to help with airways it has multiple advantages. Dolly suffers with Lami as well and Katie said it will help with the inflammation. So, my point is even if you don’t think there’s anything ‘wrong’ with your horse have a go. Honestly I will be continuing with salt therapy for as long as Katie does it. Its amazing 100000% recommend, it’s all I talk about now. Thank you so much Katie you have made dolly feel amazing I really cant describe it she’s a different pony all together.

Can’t recommend Katie enough, the salt therapy has changed my horse’s life! Due to a dusty indoor barn and a lack of winter turnout Jimmy developed a poor cough and minor breathing problems. The vet could only give short term solutions and suggested a life style change so he could be out more than he was. So this is what I did. I used the salt therapy to help clear Jimmy’s cough, and at his new yard he gets more turnout all year round. Now Jimmy rarely struggles, even when being worked he doesn’t spend any time with his head on the floor coughing. Whenever Jimmy does start coughing again I message Katie for a top up and she arranges an appointment with me usually within a few days! It’s so quick, easy and convenient. I can’t thank Katie enough for helping me improve Jimmy’s health. Additionally, Katie is super kind, patient and friendly and the treatment is cost effective! 100% recommend.
Kacea & Jimmy – Oct 2020

 

Could not recommend Katie highly enough! Our ex-racehorse had a cough which gradually developed so much to the point he was completely unrideable ,we were at a complete loss as to what to do with him but the salt therapy sessions have completely transformed his breathing and is now progressing as he should. Katie & Josh – Aug 2020

Sinus Infections / inflammation

Tina absolutely loved her salt therapy with Katie today! After 10 weeks I decided to treat her to another session and I was not disappointed with the results. The salt therapy is amazing and I would highly recommend Katie to anyone, she is kind, compassionate and really enjoys treating horses. Thank you so much Katie.
Janina & Tina – July 2020

 

Can’t recommend Katie enough! she’s always kind and affectionate to the horses and they both enjoy her company and treatment. Her salt therapy sessions have really helped my horse feel much more comfortable in his face and sinuses. He is now much more relaxed when working and happy to take a contact once more.

After only a few sessions I am seeing massive improvements in both my horses breathing and behaviour.
Cathy & Keith – May 2021

 

Highly recommended! Katie did salt therapy for 2 of my horses, one with mud fever and the results were fantastic, the other with sinusitis, vets wanted to operate on him and with him being an old boy this was not an option, after his salt therapy treatment it has completely cleared up and he is back to his happy silly self! thankyou Katie.

Summer allergies – (Hayfever, Respiratory difficulties and headshaking caused by pollen)

I can’t thank and recommend Katie enough. Storm was really struggling with hayfever and the high pollen count this year and before going back to the vets to start the next step of inhalers I thought I’d contact Katie as I had read amazing reviews on how Salt Therapy helps with respiratory issues and to see if it would help Storm.

Just after 3 sessions and a top up I now a much more comfortable horse who is back in full work, which is something I never thought would happen a month ago. 

The support and reassurance Katie has given us, as well as knowing that I can contact Katie if I am ever concerned between top ups.

Storm and I can’t wait for our next top up session now Storm has realised how much it’s helping her!

Christie & Storm – July 2023

 

I Cannot recommend Katie B Frisby – Racing, Rehabilitation and Salt Therapy enough! If your horse is struggling with breathing issues, skin irritation or you just want to improve their performance & treat them then salt therapy is really worth a go!

I dread summer every year but since Paddy had just 3 consecutive sessions of salt therapy, he’s a completely different horse. I’ve got my old paddy back. No more struggling or coughing. He’s happy, loving summer field life, enjoying our adventures together again & I feel more relaxed than I have done in years. Thank you.
Lauren & Paddy – July 2023

 

2nd session for Baby, seems to be working as I can now ride Baby with mask/nose net on back out with no head shaking / stopping.

Sweet itch / Itchy Skin (Summer Allergies)

I normally start with salt thereby about the end of February, depending on the temperature, then I do every 4 weeks throughout the summer – stick with it as it may take a while to work, but it works. If you talk to Katie, she is brilliant – I  felt like I had tried everything but nothing worked, so pleased that salt therapy did work and another bonus – its natural!
Sarah & Narla – December 2023

I have owned my Shetland pony for 10 years and she has always suffered severely from sweet itch. Have tried so many treatments/lotions/medications etc. But still itched on anything she could. To the extent of her rubbing herself raw and going demented in the field as she had nowhere to rub. Read about salt therapy and contacted Katie. Amazing lady and amazing results. After 3 treatments she can now be in her stable without a rug and doesn’t even attempt to rub. In the field she is happily grazing. Can’t thank Katie enough for her treating Vanity but also the way she handled her and made her feel comfortable during the treatment. One very happy pony and owner. Thank you Katie.
Ilse & Vanity – June 2021

 

Jade suffers from sweet itch and endless allergies. I have tried every supplement lotion and potion on the market, steroids from the vets, allergy testing, auto immune injections……. Nothing worked. Nothing. This mare literally scratches up anything she can get to, causing extreme skin trauma and too many wounds too herself. It breaks my heart to see her like this, she is too good a horse for me to give up on, so now were trying salt therapy. Katie came out on Friday and has done 3 sessions over 3 days so far with Jade. Katie is so friendly and down to earth, actually enjoyed chatting to her throughout the sessions, she gladly answered all my millions of questions. I’m yet to see the full effect from the therapy as it takes 2 weeks, but today all the hives have gone, I can touch her withers without her trembling and she has canter around like a thoroughbred.
Jody & Jade – Aug 2021

 

I would like to thank Katie for all her help with my mare Miss Cherry Pie, she suffers badly with sweet itch and other allergies. I asked Katie to come in and give salt therapy as this was literally my last attempt before getting the vet involved. And wow what a transformation, she is literally a different horse altogether, much more relaxed and calm, hardly any coughing and he skin is healing beautifully. I cannot recommend Katie enough, so patient and caring with extensive knowledge in what she does. Thank you again, we will definitely be regulars.
Leanne & Cherry – July 2021

 

My fella has had a series of salt therapy sessions this week to try and address his allergies caused by sweet itch (allergies) – and last night he was naked in his stable all night – with no apparent rubbing or scratching. Early days but to have one night without itching has made salt therapy definitely worth trying.
Judy & Mushroom – July 2021 

I cant believe Suki, I have been scared to message because its kind of a miracle, the itching has  mainly stopped, she isn’t wearing a rug and she is on a half dose of pitirton and she is being ridden without drama. Ive been holding my breathe for the last 3 weeks, but I think I can dare to hope, so when can you come back for a top up session.
Alex & Suki – Summer 2021

Performance / Overall Wellbeing of the horse

As you all know Ted was having salt therapy, often used for breathing alignment, allergies, hayfever, copd etc. ted has none of those things but I thought I would give it a whirl, well I can honestly say he feels like a different horse, he is giving me constant trot work and canter and we even blow the cobwebs away down the bridlepath with only 1 buck (wouldn’t be ted if he didn’t do at least one. The main thing is that he feels so relaxed like he can breathe easier or move easier, I am so impressed and will be keeping up with the treatments. I cant recommend this lady and the salt therapy enough.
Sarah and Ted – March 2021

Ivy has just finished her initial 3 salt therapy treatments and she loved it. Katie is brilliant and so friendly and understanding.  Ivy can be quite weary of new people and new things but she dived straight in! It was amazing to see the results after every session. Would highly recommend.

Absolutely fantastic service. A proper horsewoman. Nothing was too much trouble and Kate accommodated my horse and pony so they could stay together. Kate kept me upto date on my horses progress every day and I would highly recommend Kate. I will be going back. Fantastic.

If anyone is interested in salt therapy for their horse I would highly recommend Katie. Nemo is normally suspicious of new people, Katie put him at ease meaning he was able to gain the maximum benefit from his therapy.
