"It's all about teamwork"


  • "EPC Solutions is a team of exceptionally talented and competent
    equine podiatry professionals.

    Their attention to detail, analytical accuracy, and creative solutions
    to gain bio-mechanical advantage working with difficult, pathological hoof cases
    have proven a valuable resource to our centre.

    I would highly recommend their services to farriers & veterinarians."

  • "EPC Solutions has excellent understanding of horses' hoof-related issues;
    keeps current with the latest techniques and research; works well with
    farriers and veterinarians to analyze and measure digital hoof x-rays;
    gives excellent advice for equine feeding programs.

    This team was responsible for saving my horse from
    becoming a "pasture ornament".   This horse is now blossoming
    into a performance horse, currently training and showing Prix St. George.

    Learn about new evolving research from EPC Solutions. Your horse will thank you!"

    Cathy Gordon, CEO Kicking Horse Media Web Design & Development Inc.

  • "EPC Solutions was extremely helpful with my horse. I contacted Sylvia Kornherr on
    a recommendation from a friend, because I had been having a lot of
    trouble helping my horse to gain weight. Before the visit, I filled out an
    extensive questionnaire about his health history and activity level.

    On the first visit, she did a full assessment of his body weight and condition,
    his feet, his current diet, and a hay analysis. Then she sent me a full report
    detailing what she had observed during the visit, explanations for his difficulty
    with weight gain, and exact recommendations for what to feed him.

    Over the next few months I followed those recommendations,
    and I saw great improvements in his weight and musculature.

    I was also able to discuss his progress with Sylvia, in order for her to fine tune
    his diet, and provide further recommendations. I highly recommend her services!"

  • "Before taking the farrier course, I thought I knew a lot about horses.

    I quickly realized how much I still had to learn.  From anatomy to understanding bio-mechanics and studying the horses’ movements to basic nutritional needs.  

    This course covers it all. But it doesn’t stop there: the continued support and sharing of new information helps to keep me on my toes as I “forge” into this new career.  Well worth it!!!"


    Jeff Vigneault, Quebec, Canada
    Farrier at Balanced Hoof Care

  • "I attended the seminar Sylvia presented to the Ottawa Valley Hunt Club.
    Sylvia is obviously very knowledgeable and passionate
    about her research in the field of hoof care, nutrition and vet care.

    I and the other attendees, many being backyard horse owners
    were looking for information and tools to increase our knowledge
    to improve the lives and health of our horses.

    The presentation and delivery of her power point presentation was easy to understand
    - all in an environment that encouraged questions and empowered us
    to continue our own research to improve the well being of the horses we love.

    I highly recommend attending one of Sylvia’s seminars.
    The information she offers is invaluable."

    Sue Browning, ON, Canada
