Aromatherapy for Horses

My 12 year old daughter is interested in horses and aromatherapy so she wrote a blog post about using aromatherapy for horses today.

From Paola's blog post

" In humans, therapeutic oils such as lavender can reduce both stress and anxiety. So Dr. Ferguson, an animal scientist from MSU, decided to test this method of calming on horses. He states that environmental stimuli can cause chronic stress in many animals, horses included. 

Hop over to her blog to read the rest of the blog post. My daughter will really appreciate your support.. Thanks.
