Golden Bay ConTact C.A.R.E

Attention ALL FARMERS !! πŸ§”β€β™‚οΈπŸ‘©β€πŸ¦±πŸ„πŸ•

My name is Greg Jamieson.
I live in Collingwood, Golden Bay, and am an ex-dairy farmer myself.
After growing up and working as a dairy farmer and horseman for many years, I retired as a dairy farmer in the early 2000s.
Since then I have been working as a ConTact C.A.R.E Practitioner and instructor, working with and experiencing this method for 20 years now working mostly in the North Island of NZ as well as time in Australia , U.K. and Europe both practicing and teaching prior to moving to Golden Bay in early 2025.

With calving, and the new season upon us, now is the time to address all those farmer's niggles, aches and pains or injuries that just haven't settled over the winter break, BEFORE they become a much bigger issue and before you get too busy to have time to do anything about them!

ConTact C.A.R.E is a practical commonsense approach to working with pain and discomfort to help settle or resolve those injuries, both old and new.
Don't be fooled that these pains and injuries are something you just have to learn to live with or that it's because of your age!
If you feel like you have tried everything yet nothing seems to help or last, or tried nothing , tried to ignore it and it hasn't gone away, its because the true cause may not yet have been addressed, and the injuries are embedded deep within the structure of the bone.

ConTact C.A.R.E recognizes this by
your bodies structural responses, that reveal exactly the injury patterns we are dealing with, where the problems lie , the true cause ( trapped pressure) - of the cause ( structural counterbalance reactions ) - of the effect ( pain ) as well as the answers on how to resolve them.

"All the answers lie within the injury itself,"

It doesnt matter if its been there for days, weeks, months , or years, I can still help improve balance and movement that allows your body to move with more freedom and less stress and effort, away from pain and toward healing itself through movement
, all while you are still working.
Once the pressure has been located and released, the issues can only then begin to resolve themselves, mostly without the need for rest.
This often negates the need for many ongoing treatments for the same issue, once the true cause is revealed.
A farmer can only truly recover on the move as at this time of the year, particularly, there is no choice or time to stop !!

In cases where unfortunately bones have been broken, I can also help improve overall structural balance away from the break to help ease the stress on recovery so the bone heals into balance and can improve recovery times.

ConTact C.A.R.E was developed here in NZ by a kiwi farmer Dale Speedy of Ngatea, and it has helped many farmers and farming partners all over the surrounding areas to be able to work more efficiently and effectively by restoring movement and function and therefore reducing pain and discomfort from the body.
I was trained exclusively by Dale in the ConTact C.A.R.E flinchlock release phenomenon, and it helped me myself, amongst other things, make a full pain-free recovery from a broken back over 10 years ago following a surgical spinal fusion proceedure with no further back issues using ConTact C.A.R.E exclusively as a post-op treatment.

ConTact C.A.R.E treatments will not interfere with your day to day obligations as in most cases you can return to work duties as soon as you get home and feel an immediate change.

So if you are feeling stuck with any issues that will make it harder to move and work through the busy spring and summer months, or feeling stressed and under pressure at the thought of the impending season, be it from an accident or injury or old rugby or netball injuries from years ago or just last week, or for no apparent reason to yourself whatsoever, contact me now to further discuss how I can help you.

I work with all types of people as well as animals, including horses, dogs and cats, and other small animals.
I am available at my home in Collingwood for clinical treatments most days as well as clinic appointments on Fridays in Takaka.
I can travel onsite for large animal treatments.

My partner Ashley Robertson , also a former dairy farmer, works alongside me in my ConTact C.A.R.E practice. She is experienced with all types of treatments but has a special interest in animals and has much experience treating her own cows and calves over the past several years with great results.
If your Cows or calves are not responding to traditional treatment and you find yourself asking what else could I try, or you would like to explore a more natural non-invasive drug-free approach, then Ashley may be your answer.

πŸŽπŸ„ ConTact C.A.R.E was originally developed on horses and cows and evidence suggests it as a viable alternative for your down or calving injured cows , also cows struggling to recover or do well , post calving for no apparent reason.
Scouring or unco-ordinated calves who struggle to drink well or stand with balance and move, or just poor doers, also respond extremely well to ConTact C.A.R.E.
It can be just the kick start they need and, in many cases, can save these animals' lives and restore productivity.

πŸ• Working dogs are another one often forgotten and having to struggle along with injury or failing bodies due to injuries or aging.
These issues are greatly improved with a ConTact C.A.R.E session or 2.

ConTact C.A.R.E works with clients ( animals or people) comfort at all times, so no matter how much pain or discomfort you or your animals are in, it is a painless, pleasant experience for all !!

🐴 🐴 Equine ConTact C.A.R.E. 🐎🐎

WHAT IS IT AND HOW CAN IT HELP ME AND MY HORSE ? 🐴

For 50+ years now, I have experienced and worked with extra- ordinary Equine reactions and behaviors that, on the surface, make no sense.

By that, I mean simply when the horse consistently does the opposite of what is being asked.

The more you squeeze your horse to go, the more he stops!

You lead them forward. They go backward!

Ask them to lift their hoof. They stand on it more.

These types of backward responses to pressure make no sense .
Even more so if it's a sudden reaction or change of behavior.

" MY HORSE IS NOT SENSIBLE"

Such behaviors are often explained as the horse has decided to become stubborn, lazy, or difficult, something that the horse is actually not capable of creating by itself.
It's the human way to try to understand or explain what they can't .

These responses are involuntary and not intentional by the horse.

Your horse now feels that YOU make them do the opposite, then become annoyed by it !

THAT WILL MAKE NO SENSE TO YOUR HORSE !

Confusion sets in for both horses and riders.

We all have expectations of normal pressure responses - applying pressure to create movement and releasing pressure to reward movement and are totally reliant on normal biomechanical functions and responses for this.
In fact, all training methods and practices are.

Normal function allows normal reaction.

But what if there is no normal function?
It now creates abnormal reactions.
And if so, how do we know what and how do we restore it?

20 years ago, I discovered all the answers and reasons why , through experiencing Equine ConTact C.A.R.E

Most body workers should understand that structure governs function.
But ConTact C.A.R.E understands Flinchlock governs structure !

In horses, it is particularly obvious that Flinchlock reverses the state of the bone.
Instead of the bone moving away from pressure to provide comfort, when Flinchlocked the bone, it now moves into pressure to provide comfort.
Opposite becomes the new normal.

" WHEN THE BONE WON'T CARRY THE MOVEMENT... THE MOVEMENT MUST CARRY THE BONE..."

Pressure on pressure now shuts down movement instead of creates it.

So what is not Flinchlocked (movable) now has to work around what is (immovable) to retain what is now compromised balance and function .
It's nature's way of using balance ( or, in this case, im-balance) as a primary self-defense tool.

" THE BODY WILL BALANCE ITSELF AUTOMATICALLY WITH WHAT IT IS CARRYING "

So what is a Flinchlock? And how does a horse become Flinchlocked?

ConTact C.A.R.E accepts bones can absorb and hold pressure when they experience surprise environmental impacts.
The hit they don't see coming.
The bone does not have the opportunity to defend itself until after the hit, creating Skeletal Sensory Shock within the impacted bone.
The shape and balance of the structure at point of impact becomes the new normal functional shape and balance.

An example of this is a surprise kick in the ribs by a paddock mate with the horses head held high now demands the head be held high to move when the girth is around the impacted rib.
The horse can not now move freely with its head down without it causing pain and discomfort while saddled.
A high head carriage is now more comfortable than what we see as a normal or lower one.
So insisting on this horse going on the bit or with a lower head carriage means they become less responsive to the leg and lack forward impulsion as a result.

Another would be an impact skidding into a gateway and hitting the chest on the gate.
This will now cause the tail and hind legs to become clamped underneath and hard to move when the chest is pressured by , for instance , heavy breathing and cause the horse to seem unfit because he runs out of puff despite having plenty of exercise .

"THE BODY WILL TAKE THE EASY LIFE OPTION EVERYTIME "

As for what is Flinchlocked and how it is affecting normal function , all the answers are held in the horses structural reactions to pressure.

I can feel where your horses pressure is held .
In 50 + years of starting , training, and competing horses, I felt this every day on thousands of different horses over the years.

Their reactions to my hands through ConTact C.A.R.E now tell me the WHERE WHAT and HOW ;

*WHERE is the comfort shape

* WHERE the pressure is held within that comfort shape

*WHAT is the angle and direction of pressure from the original impact.

* WHAT is the amount of pressure needed to normal balance

*WHAT was the probable cause

*HOW the horse may react and why

*HOW to gently release it

*HOW different pressures and movement react from jaw pressure all the way to their feet and where the workload is overcompensating in between all while being held in the riders' hands.

" COINCIDENCE CONNECTS ALL THINGS "

ConTact C.A.R.E Flinclock Release gently stimulates the release of Flinchlocked bones and allows the horses structure to return to normal function. AUTOMATICALLY

This is how I change what makes no sense back to what we understand as sensible behavior, reaction, and understanding between horse and rider.

If you feel stuck with a problem with your horse , you have hit a pressure wall created by Flinchlock. The more you push, the more it resists !!.

"THE POWER OF THE FLINCHLOCK SHOULD NEVER BE UNDERESTIMATED, NOR SHOULD THE AFFECTIVENESS OF THE RELEASE "

Remove the Flinchlock, and your horse will move freely and begin to thrive and live again !!!

EQUINE ConTact C.A.R.E can help make your horse more SENSE - ABLE.

" And their hearts will sing "
