105 Josh Milburn, Holistic Equine Dentistry Artwork

Adult Onset Horsemanship

An informal and candid podcast discussing real world horsemanship with respected and experienced experts. Daniel is a guy who is good with horses. He has a background in cutting where he was predominantly involved in developing aged event horses and started over 1000 head of colts, many of whom went on to win lots of cash. A very bad horse wreck at a horse show, involving his niece, prompted him to begin working with people and showing them a no BS version of how to not get killed by their horses. He's since worked with thousands more horses and people from varying disciplines and breeds including many last chance problem horses. In addition to his general horsemanship knowledge he is an internationally known expert on bits and how and why they function. He has a well rounded knowledge base of horsemanship and is working hard at his communication skills with his own species. His wife is a firm believer that he really likes the sound of his own voice and that is the real reason he's started this podcast. http://dauphinhorsemanship.com/

Josh Milburn, a leading neuromuscular natural balance dentist. Milburn Equine brings a transformative approach to holistic equine dentistry — focusing on restoring the horse’s mouth to its natural balance, just as it would function in the wild.

This unique, whole-horse method has far-reaching benefits for wellbeing and performance, helping horses move, feel and function at their best.

Josh is based in Northwest England. His originial training was as a farrier and he spent many years working exclusively on muddy feet. His interest eventually turned to equine dentistry and he immediately saw the marriage that these two parts of the horse have.

Josh’s work supports:

✅ Improved hoof quality & posture

✅ Enhanced proprioception & freer movement

✅ Better gut health & reduced ulcer risk

✅ Fewer issues like shoe loss

✅ Stronger overall athletic performance

Josh now works primarily as an equine dentist, practicing natural balance neuromulscular equine dentistry, but does bring the feet and posture into his practice. We talk a lot about the TMJ complex in this episode and just how influenced it is by dentistry and how the rest of the body is then influenced by the TMJ. We do get into changes in the feet that Josh sees and can influence through dentistry.
