FAQ
-
Is it possible to learn these techniques online?
Yes, Dr. Angel has structured her courses to allow all types of learners to be able to assimilate the material and successfully practice the techniques. There are hands on homework assignments throughout the course where you have direct feedback by Dr. Angel or one of her teaching assistants or instructors before moving forward.
-
What exactly will I be certified in and who will the certification be from?
You will be certified by Angel's Animals as a Certified Equine Myo-manipulative Functional Therapist. The certification implies that you are proficient in the techniques taught in the course. The certification is not affiliate with any state licensing and the practitioner must check their local laws before practicing. Our program is pre-approved through IAAMB, allowing you to become a member at the completion.
-
Do I need access to a horse to take this course?
Yes, you will need access to horses to practice the techniques and complete the assignments. If you do not own a horse, we recommend contacting a local therapeutic riding stable, rescue, breeding facility or training barn.
-
Why do I need experience handling horses before taking this course?
Horses are large and somewhat unpredictable prey animals. While Dr. Angel goes over safe handling and horse behavior in the course, it is important to have experience with horses to safely practice massage and bodywork on them.
-
Will completing this course allow me to sit for the NBCAAM board exam?
No, since NBCAAM require hands on class time and this course is online, it will not qualify you to sit for their exam. Completing this course will NOT qualify you to practice animal massage in the states that require the NBCAAM exam however you can enroll in other in person programs in addition to our course to gain the hours needed. Our course also covers all the material found on their exam so it is a good review before sitting for their exam.
