Sam Griffiths is one of the leading Australian 3 day eventers and currently leads the Aussie charge towards the London Olympics after his excellent performance at Badminton Horse Trials this year. He is now a leading advocate of Equine Bowen Therapy and uses Neil to keep his horses performing to their optimum.

Sam’s horse, Happy Times, had been feeling some stiffness before this year’s Badminton so Neil was called in. Well placed after dressage, ‘Happy’ was the stand-out horse on the XC and was still feeling fresh and loose at the end despite a gruelling weekend of competition; demonstrated by a foot perfect clear round show jumping. This is what Sam had to say afterwards about working with Neil:

” I have worked closely with Neil for a number of years and have found his work incredibly beneficial for both myself and my horses. In particular, he worked with us throughout Badminton 2011 and I have no doubt his treatments helped us achieve an optimal performance. Coming 4th place at Badminton puts us in contention for London 2012. Throughout the build up to London I will continue to work with Neil on a regular basis as he has become an integral part of my team.”
