Meet Dr. Douglass
My journey into holistic horse care began in my teens with a Thoroughbred mare who struggled over fences. Local vets couldn’t explain what was wrong, and I was frustrated—spending money without answers while knowing deep down my horse was trying to tell me something. Everything changed after her first acupuncture treatment. Overnight, she moved like a different horse. That moment lit the path I’ve followed ever since: integrating the best of holistic and biomedical approaches to help horses thrive.
That path has been full of education and hands-on experience. After earning a B.S. in Equine Science and completing graduate studies in Animal Behavior, I built a career in Equine Dentistry before pursuing advanced training in Traditional Chinese Medicine. Today, I hold a Doctorate in Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine, with a focus on integrative medicine. Over the past 25 years, I’ve treated horses and humans across the country, weaving together Chinese medicine, western biomedical training, and a wide range of complementary therapies.
My background includes university-level study in western medicine, acupuncture, herbal medicine, nutrition, moxibustion, and electrostimulation, along with advanced certifications in functional nutrition, Chinese dietary therapy, Tui Na myofascial release, sonopuncture, dry needling, essential oils, craniosacral therapy, movement science, sports medicine, and biomechanics.
A recent specialization is in trauma-informed healthcare with a focus on the mind-body connection and how trauma affects long term health.
But my education didn’t stop in the classroom. Starting, training, and riding my own horses—from yearlings through FEI—has given me practical insight into what it takes to support equine athletes in body, mind, and spirit.
Today, my goal is simple: to take the guesswork out of horse care. I translate decades of study and practice into clear paths, solutions, and treatment plans so you don’t have to sift through conflicting advice alone. Every horse that enters my sphere is met as a whole being—with the intention to restore balance, enhance vitality, and strengthen the horse–human partnership.
And now, through this platform, I’m excited to reach even more horses and their owners—helping you discover what’s possible when we honor the whole horse.
My goal is to have every horse that enters my sphere be positively influenced in body, mind and spirit. My new dream is to be able to reach even more horses and their owners through this very platform.
