📌 Event Details
🔔 Optional Level 1 Refresher Available
An optional 2-day Equine Cranial Sacral Level 1 Refresher is available immediately prior to this course and takes place on May 4–5, 2026.
Participants may attend the refresher before continuing directly into Equine Cranial Sacral – Level 2 beginning May 6, 2026. This refresher is ideal for those looking to revisit and reinforce Level 1 techniques before advancing.
Equine Cranial Sacral – Level 2 is an advanced, 5-day, hands-on course designed for equine professionals and cranial sacral therapists who are ready to deepen their skills and clinical reasoning.
This course builds upon the foundation established in Level 1, expanding both the depth and scope of Cranial Neural Fascial Integration and interspecies communication. Techniques previously learned are reviewed, refined, and augmented to include sutures, neural pathways, and kinetic chains throughout the equine body.
Participants may also choose to attend a 2-day Level 1 refresher prior to the Level 2 course.
