Hello, I am Elaine Hall DipICAT (Dist), Cert Vet Ed (Merit), MAAT, FHEA, Certified Thermographer ~ I have ridden all my life; eventing for more than twenty years up to Advanced level, currently I concentrate on dressage with my warmblood mare. I have extensive experience and depth of knowledge including; veterinary nursing experience, am an SMS trained saddle fitter a qualified Equine Sports Massage Therapist (DipICAT) and I am a Certified Thermographer. Therefore I have an excellent understanding of equine anatomy and physiology, horse and rider balance and the stresses and strains placed on the horse through training and competing. My husband Alf of Equine Foot Clinic, is a remedial farrier so I have a keen interest in the thermal patterns of equine feet and as a sufferer myself of chronic neuropathic pain I have a keen interest in equine chronic pain and nerve damage.

I have attended training courses given by Dr Tracy Turner DVM, Prof Ram Purohit, Dr Jim Waldsmith DVM and Dr Ken Marcella, all pioneers in Veterinary Thermal Imaging. I have been trained in the thermal patterns associated with nerve damage and Equine Dermatome Patterns by Prof Ram Purohit, a specialist in this subject.
