Why Horse Owners Seek Fairview Haven Equine
Most horse owners come to Nichole carrying something heavy:
-
worry that they’re missing signs
-
frustration with inconsistent practitioners
-
confusion about conflicting advice
-
guilt for “not knowing enough”
-
fear that their horse’s discomfort means something worse
You need someone who explains the details without weighing you down.
​
Nichole offers what the equine world craves:
​
relief — from the chaos, the guessing, the spiraling
clarity — from someone who sees patterns others overlook
guidance — steady, patient, grounded
consistency — she shows up, always, without fail
​
Here, you don’t have to know everything.
Caring is enough to begin.
Nichole helps with the understanding.
What Makes Fairview Haven Different
Careful Assessment
While others rush, Nichole watches.
Connecting the Dots
While others treat problems, she connects patterns.
A Real Partnership
While others speak in jargon, she speaks in plain language.
Case Management
Her background in critical care nursing trained her eye to notice micro-changes —
the kind that predict what the horse’s body will do next.
Osteopathy
Nichole's training in equine osteopathy taught her how small shifts in the hoof ripple through the entire body.
Barefoot Trimming
And her barefoot trimming practice allows her to guide the horse through gradual, meaningful change instead of one giant shock every six weeks.
This isn’t about the hoof or the spine or the stride.
It’s about the whole horse, seen clearly at last.
Success Stories
Move with such freedom and comfort now...
"Absolutely thrilled with the hoof care and equine bodywork provided by Nichole! My horse's feet have never been healthier or more balanced, and the difference after a bodywork session is simply amazing.
They move with such freedom and comfort now. A true master of their craft – highly, highly recommend!"
Harri Jo
More supple and his range of motion is unbelievable...
Nichole is a talented & knowledgeable farrier. She sees what is going on with the hoof, explains it and describes how she is addressing it plus she tells you what to watch for in between trims. I’m no expert but he is moving as though he is more comfortable and is perhaps balanced.
She is also an osteopath and WOW her treatments have made him much more supple and his range of motion is unbelievable for a 21 year old! Now with improved mobility he trots out— fun to ride! Thank you Nichole…

Her patience and expertise are a blessing!
Nichole has been a lifesaver for my navicular gelding! She expertly guided us through the process of transitioning out of shoes and rehabilitating the hoof. Her patience and expertise are a blessing!
