Horses and riders with raised hooves -- does it mean anything? No

Rumor holds it that one leg lifted means the rider was wounded in battle. Two legs in the air means the rider died and all four hooves on the ground means the rider died of natural causes. The truth behind the horse-and-rider statues seems to be simply artist preference. There is nothing to support the claim of raised legs.

If you want to earn more when you become a therapist or
holistic practitioner, then it would make sense to have an open mind and move
away from the mindset of treating your private practice as though it
is a hobby, right. Finding the right massage therapist can sometimes be a
tough search. Step 3: Determine the goal(s)
you would like to achieve during each session.
